I think if you're doing micro adjustments between rides, the saddle can still be nudged without much force. In my case I hadn't adjusted the saddle in a few months and decided to change the positioning. The clamps had already settled in-place and just needed a slight whack to loosen it. Not a dealbreaker in my opinion since the clamp and seat post stay in-place once firmly tightened.



I have a question regarding this: at how many Nm did you tighten the upper clamp?
At approximately 4–5 Nm, the saddle's tilt changed; I have now tightened it to 6 Nm and hope that the tilt position holds.

I've been tweaking my R088 a bit. I swapped out the stock LTwoo calipers for ZTTO (IIIPro) disc calipers mainly for the weight cut. I installed a Cyclami 18t offset lower pulley wheel on my eR9 cage. It allows expanded cassette range without modding the stock cage. I'm currently on a 50-34t/10-33t setup, but I'm entertaining the thought of going 10-36t with the new pulley wheel. Lastly, I swapped my inner small chainring for a 34t oval. I've had such good results with 1x oval on gravel, I wanted to try it on the road bike. I have titanium axles coming as well to cut additional weight. Overall, I still consider this more of a budget build with off-the-shelf AliEx parts.  ;)

How much do the titanium axles weigh? Could you please share a link?

Hello everyone,

I'm considering swapping my UDH hanger for a direct mount because I use a Shimano Ultegra rear derailleur.
I came across this article:

Does anyone know if it would actually fit the frame?

My mechanical shifting setup is complete. The front derailleur cable was a bit problematic because it doesn't have a guide. I secured the outer cable housing to the seat tube with a cable tie to stabilize it. I'll do a test ride as soon as it's dry outside. I'll add more handlebar tape and weigh the bike.

The assembly seems very interesting....what wheels are they? Saddle?

I had also ordered the Toseek handlebar that you intend to mount for my Cervélo R3 (rim), but I returned it because it was too wide on the top.

As for the stem, on the R3 I mount this one from Decathlon: little expense and great aesthetic result, even if it weighs a little more than the UNO stem (150gr for 110mm):

the wheels are from Elitewheels Edge 50, the saddle from Elita One

Looks like you got the hard part out of the way! Also I love how a bunch of owners of this frame is using the lightweight UNO stem. This frame seems popular for those who don't want loose headsets!;D

What kind of bars are you planning to use? Looking forward to your complete build!

Yes, exactly, a lot of things are already prepared. I'm currently still waiting for the handlebars to be delivered. I ordered one from Toseek, the TR30 model. The cables still need to be threaded into the handlebars. I hope the cable radius won't be too tight around the handlebar holes.

I'm not sure how the FD cable bend will look, but I highly recommend you do all the cable routing before installing the BB. You should be able to place the cables in the optimal position and then install the BB afterwards.

I've already installed all four cables into the frame, and the front derailleur is deliberately routed around the lower bottom bracket area. It sits neatly in there, but it's not really fixed in place. I hope that once it's finished, it won't affect the front derailleur settings while riding. This is the current status.

Hello everyone, I'd like to build this frame with a mechanical 2x11 Ultegra drivetrain. I'm envisioning routing the front derailleur cable below the bottom bracket to create a smooth cable bend. Will this work reliably without a fixed cable routing if the shift cable housing is routed "loosely" around the bottom bracket?

Best regards
