Re: LCFS947 - 160mm 4-bar 27+/29 Build started - she's on the stand, with shock and bearings installed.
Forgot how to do a headset properly, learned that shock bushings are a PITA, and figured out how to do internal routing and Cushcore+tubeless for the first time. Lots of hard learning, but I'm getting really excited for the final product. X-Fusion 150 mm dropper - a bit large for the space, but we'll see how well it rides.

Re: Tideace NEW Gravel Frame: GR201 Welcome to the club. I ended up changing the bar against one from Speeder Cycling.

You have several options:
a) I assume you are using the black c ring delivered with the handlebar. You can change it against the silver one delivered with the frame. That fixes the moving fork as it compresses also from the front. But you will end up in a large gap between headset and top cap. You can either sand down the top cap or (as I did for another frame) glue on a round piece of universal rubber seal under the top cap to close the gap.

b) The FSA ACR 55R headset sits nice in this frame. No gap between top cap and headtube. Also the top cap follows the form of the headtube. The only issue is that every Chinese handlebar uses its own style of spacer/nut combination. So you need a transition spacer from FSA ACR to the tideace ones (3d printed or you have to glue an FSA spacer and a tideace together).

c) Buy a new handlebar with better quality :-)

Re: Interesting Aliexpress finds! - good deals, interesting stuff, new products etc!
Have not tried this one specifically, but I regard YKYW to be the best of the AliX cycling kit brands. Too bad about those colors though.

The quality feels very fine but OMG YES!
The colors with this brand are just not my choice unfortunately :/

Re: Lightcarbon: LCR018-D (endurance all-road)
Hi everyone,

Is anyone running an LCR018-D frame with an Ultegra 12v (R8100) groupset?
I’m getting  vibrations (rumbling) when pedaling under tension on the smallest cogs. It’s also especially noticeable on my direct-drive trainer.

My drivetrain is brand new and perfectly indexed. Has anyone noticed a similar resonance or chainline issue with this specific frame combo, or is it just my setup?

Thanks!

I have something similar, but i have some cheap RIRO/Goldix Chainrings, ZTTO cassette and  Wheeltop FD/RD. Sometimes it sounds like the chain doesn't match the teeth of the cassette and you than get a vibration which than accumulated into more vibration and noise.

I always assume it's the cheap setup and not the frame itself.
