Btw, what would you say is the good option for BSA BB?
Originally, i was searching for BB86 frame as i THINK i like BB86, since i'm 100% sure i'd be using the ZTTO threadfit stuff, or climb up to BBInfinite for that "free spin" thing. But from my experience with my older bike, that free spin thing is harder to get with BSA. I mean i know BSA is reliable, it's less prone to squeaking, but still. If push comes to shove, i can still live with BSA with this style of frame haha.

Hi OP. I just wanna chime in and say i personally love silent bike hub too haha. I usually ride at 5 A.M so i love listening to everything surrouding me, including tire sounds.
That's why my wishlist wheels would be Onyx hubs with Berd spokes and some good rims (probably from LightCarbon).

Any how, to answer your question, there's only like 1 brand that i know that makes silent hub but also straightpull spokes and that is Foss. Here's the link https://www.foss.com.tw/hub-frs-21.html
I have NO idea about its quality nor how to buy it, but hey, it's a choice.

Thank you so much for the info regarding the axle haha. I just found out today there's like at least 10 different thru axle size, so this is preferable since i can order it along with the frame at the same time, not having to order the axle after i get the frame.

Thanks mate.
I'm personally 177cm tall with 74cm inseam (super short for my height), so do you think size 520 would fit me well? Or should i go up to size 540?

Hi everyone, long time lurker here.
I'm planning to buy the CFR1056 at the end of this year, so i'm planning ahead.
I'm around 177cm tall with 74cm inseam (barefoot measureing) (super short inseam for my height). I was wondering if any of you guys have a similar body proportion as I am, or if you guys can advise me on whether to go with size S/460 or size M/490?
I'll never race and i just want to ride a road bike without feeling lower back pain for hand numbness after 2 hours of riding. Thank you in advance. I've never had a bike fit before fwiw.

Please double check what I replied you here on the forum.

1. I haven't mentioned any words saying our customized hubs with ceramic bearings, I said we have extralite hubs and DT 180S hubs with ceramic bearings options.

2. I said I am not familiar with hubs technical design etc. We just ordered these hubs from Taiwan hubs factory and they are with 36T rachets. If any warranty problem happens on the hubs, we would carry that. We don't sell these customized hubs at expensive price, just reasonable, many brands hubs are customized in Taiwan.

3. The most important things, we don't sell anything on Taobao or Aliexpress, I said we don't offer any cheap stuff with uncertain warranty like those vendors, we just offer quality products and good service after sale as all my clients know

4. Why I did't reply your email, since you asked same questions here and I already replied here too.

Sure, if you don't want carbon spokes option, we offer aero Sapim CX-Ray, CX-Delta spokes , Pillar 1423 spokes, and other normal alloy spokes, so that you don't have to use our customized hubs, maybe DT Swiss, extralite, TUNE, T11, King, Carbon-TI or Bitex disc hubs instead

Anyway, thanks for your questions,  I am not professional on the hubs sfuff though

Even though i'm not actively looking forward to buying new wheels, i must say that i'm impressed Peter. I'm impress with how you answer questions, discussing options and straight forward about the prices. Bravo. I may not need a new set of wheels now, but i sure know where to look for them in the future lol.

I'm going to build my 168 with a SRAM Force AXS groupset, with a DUB crankset. What kind of bottom bracket would you choose? I was leaning towards the official Sram BB86 DUB BB, but I'm worried about the durability. Maybe I should go for a more premium BB, like Kogel, C-Bear or Ceramic Speed? What do you think?

Like the other person said, your best option would be a Hambini bottom bracket+24mm crank. That being said, if you're a cheap skate like me, i'd get a Thread-fit design BB for 24mm spindle from aliexpress (from brand like GUB, ZTTO,...), swap out the original bearings, change it to NSK/SKF bearings (i forgot the dimension, but just make sure the inner race diameter is 25mm), get a plastic shims for 24mm spindle like for Shimano BB (you can also get this from Aliexpress) and done, you'd get the best bang for buck BB imho. Although Hambini doesn't like that design because of its stiffness (or lack thereof and i agree with him), i dont really care. It works.for me lol.

I don'tt want to make a new thread, so please don't kill me for a double post.

I was browsing Aliexpress as usual and found these wheels:
https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005002368594848.html?spm=a2g0o.store_pc_groupList.8148356.2.749b2e5bBy7hZy&pdp_npi=2%40dis%21EUR%21€%20848%2C36%21€%20695%2C66%21%21%21%21%21%402100bb4c16617180101313465ecc09%2112000020357475494%21sh
Roughly 720€ (with VAT included, seller claims that you don't need to pay VAT upon checking out, so it works out to around 570€) for wheels with flat carbon spokes and DT350 hub, which is fair bit less than Elitewheels BWS. Does anyone have any experience with the Explorer brand? They offer few different weave patterns, including the same marble look as Elitewheel Drive, on top of that they have a wide range of hubs, which makes me think that they lace wheels in house rather than just rebrand them.

P.S. I am not affiliated with that company or anything like that.

I've never heard of them tbh. I'd rather bought from EliteWheels or SuperTeam. Tantan/Seraph even has a lot of different options (they have 12k weaves +240/350 just like those wheels too)
