When everything is assembled, try to unscrew the caliper (front or right or both) and turn it of 360°. I hope you will understand 😅.

Oh so you mean the brake hose is twisted?

I have a problem with the cockpit installation. I got the brake hoses through the cockpit, but when I want to install the cockpit on the fork it gets pushed to the right as if there is some cable tension. I don't know wehre it comes from, since I disassembled it and reassembled it without seeing an issue. How did you all install the cockpit?

Has anybody mounted aerobars on their Tantan cockpit?

The compression plug in the fork is a really tight fit with the fork shaft. I would have to hammer it in and I'm not really keen on doing that. Anybody got the same problem or an idea what I could do?

For anyone interested: I just ordered the original Specialized expander plug which ist a way better quality than the one that came with the frame.
Together with a brake adapter that was defective I had to spent about 45€ extra.
Guess that happens when you order these cheap framesets.

Pretty much in the same situation. Frame is on its way to me and I am trying to get everything ready in advance for a smooth build

So I just got my frame delivered, took quite a while during the holidays in germany. Do you need some Screw measurements or did you receive yours now?
Quite happy with mine, the paintjob looks really good, just the brake mounts are sprayed over quite a bit.

The adapter for front brake is not good, one counterbore is way too deep so I can't use it. You guys reckon Tantan will send me a replacement or just don't bother and get it somewhere else?

I've just seen in a video of a Specialized SL8 build you need a special brake adapter for the front brake with the specialized fork. Is it the same with the X68?

I want to replace some screws with Ti-Screws. My frame didn't arrive yet, I can send you dimensions when I get the frame. So excited, since it's the first bike I'll build.
Anybody know if the frame comes with Di2 battery holder?

Hi everybody,
I'm about to order the Tantan x68 frame too. I want to build the bike with seperate handlebar/stem configuration, since I love the looks of not integrated aero handlebars. Probably even going for a gravel bar with flare.
Tantan does not offer a stem though. Anybody got a tip for a stem with spacers fitting this frame?
