unscrew just a little, rubber mallet, unscrew other few millimeters, rubber mallet again...
For the last few millimiters just use your thumb...

I have the posted extractor but it's equally safe to use the rubber mallet.

Great, ty guys, will try like this  :)

Yes, I already have that tool.

But the issue is both sides of BB are screw, so to uninstall them you have to unscrew, and at the end one side still will be into the frame, so if I try to extract it with that tool, only bearings are coming out.... what I am doing wrong?

Hi, I purchased a ZTTO pressfit BB for my VB-177 frame, is this one: https://es.aliexpress.com/item/1005005940645297.html?spm=a2g0o.order_list.order_list_main.28.63fd194dZeYY6y&gatewayAdapt=glo2esp

To install, is as simple as pressing one side into the frame, and then just screw the other side that will come into place easily, but.... how to uninstall?

I mean, is it supposed to unscrew a little bit each side taking turns until both side are out?? Because if I try to extract it with pressfit BB tools only bearings are coming out

Hi all, frame received and now putting all together.

Build setup: VB 177 frame, separated stem and handlebars, mechanical ultegra group

After a whole evening trying to route cables through stem I´m done.... it is practically imposible. Ordered a Ritchey logic headset to route cables outside the stem

IMHO, I think that stem provided by VB is thought only for inalambric groupsets, 2 cables is doable, but 4.....

Frame looks good, I only had to sand front inner hole of brake hose in the fork (impossible for the cable to go through)

Chris told me my frame was picked up by the agent (5days ago), but if I check tracking id in 17track.net I get: "Your package is waiting to be picked up by the carrier"

If I check in DPD China it says: "NOT FOUND"

How long does it take to be updated?

Hi!

Does anyone know how long it takes to Velobuild to paint (1color) and ship a VR-177 frame?
Ordered mine more than 20 days ago and I am still waiting for it to be shipped

Regards
