Re: Seraph Bikes Superlight 836g X68 - Alternative to SL8 Fakes?
Alright, thanks a lot , I think it looks super great just not an everyday look for me, I like it a little more “tidy” but thats probably quite personal preference . Did people here get the CS-RDW-50-33 wheelset (26internal 33/34ext.) of peter or the one CS-RDW-50-31 with 24internal and 31ext. for the x68? Probably the first is too wide, or has someone been able to fit the with 32 mm tires?

Re: Velobuild AERO GRAV Frame
Slowly and surely the build is coming along, not the tires I will likely end on and I am going to try to see if the p505 will fit but overall very happy with the ease of build and comfort.

Re: Velobuild AERO GRAV Frame
Quick update, Magene PES 505 worked with my FSA t47i bb. I did use the wavy washer on the drive side to give some more space around the bb but I would feel safe saying that it would be fine without it. Cranks are 165mm, so I have prob an inch+ of room between my toe and the 2.1 on the front

Re: Seraph Bikes Superlight 836g X68 - Alternative to SL8 Fakes?
Ridden 100km so far with some efforts and sprints thrown in. I have some thoughts regarding overall riding dynamics, but I'll save them for another time. The braking performance and ergonomics of the new Sram E1 levers is outstanding. If I didn't hate the shifting dynamics of Sram AXS I could be convinced to fully convert over from Shimano Di2. -Brake caliper mounts/facing: CRAPPY. Probably the worst of any frame I've built. I did some sanding but it appears more is needed. Which is odd because the facing on TanTan GR201 was dang near perfect out of the box. Basically impossible to align the rear caliper without sanding. Also, I am literally using the same caliper bolts from Tarmac SL8. The rear caliper bolts are fine. But the front caliper bolts either are too long (which are a very standard length for all road frame forks) or TanTan simply didn't chase/tap the threads deep enough into the fork. I had to use two additional spacers to each bolt out of fear of cross threading. This isn't ideal. And now there some sound resonance and vibration under heavy braking. -Seatpost interface to the frame is slopppppy. Even with carbon paste I had to bump the torque from 6.2Nm to 8Nm. So far it's holding. October 06, 2025, 03:51:14 PM |
