Most the issues I hear are from 14 speed that need the thinner UDH hanger in order to clear the Sentyeh RD. Though we won't know unless someone tries with a 13 speed cassette.

I have tried it. Had to use a 2mm washer between frame and cassette to make it fit. It works but would not call it a fit without issues.

I have purchased an Ltwoo EGR 1x 13-speed derailleur; can I install a 10-46t SRAM Rival XPLR cassette and a SRAM Flattop chain without any issues?

I don't think so. The 13s xplr cassette will probably be too wide. They way sram solved it is to removed the udh and use an xplr derailleur which is thinner and makes room for a wider cassette (se my earlier post). Please report back if you manage to do it.

Well I received the Ullicyc T5 bar and that was a bit of a disappointment. The T5 does more or less give the same total stack to the hoods as the T4. I don't get how they make the drawings/specifications? Stem angle is especially important to compare in the same way. I feel it's a bit of a gamble buying new type of handlebars  and I will not use them. The T4 is better looking and much more stiff. Actually a really nice bar. Was hoping to be able to slam the T5 but no point. Will continue using the T4 bars for coming builds.

Nice and how long for production and what's shipping estimate?

Daniel said 10 working days to delivery. Shipping to Sweden I don't know but normally 2-3weeks.

Ok what colours did you go for.
What have you guessed? Frame size?

Simple raw carbon glossy. Have some ideas of decals to put on later.

No frame size is 58 no guess there. The information about the T5 bar however is not the best. Hope total stack and reach will be fine in the end. It will be a nice winter project 

Recommend you to source an alternative T47 bb. The bearings actually got stuck when I torqued the T47 dub supplied by LC. Had a lot of T47 bb in the past, both 24mm and dub, and it never happened before. Frame is fine and worked perfect with another brand so something is sketchy. Good luck with your build. It's a fantastic all road frame!

Very interesting! Just made my order today! Was first considering x68 but everything with light cycling feels much better. I will try to pair it with the Ullicyc T5 riser bar. It's a bit of a gamble because I have only guessed based on some assumptions what size that will fit

has anyone use 13s cassete? with the new egr?

Yes I have a sram xplr 13s cassette on my road bike. Really it is not compatible because the cassette is to wide. You need to have a udh compatible frame and a sram xplr rear derailleur to make it work with the wider cassette. My simple solution was to put a 2mm washer between frame and cassette. Its tight but works like a charm

Can someone check their frame if the top or down tube is flexy?  squeezable with your bare hands?

Yes I can flex the down tube with my hand but not the top. Have been doing some milage on mine now and I think it is a really nice frame for the money.

I have several of them. Maybe not the stiffest but for the price really good.

I also have a 2023 frame with quite low milage. The crack is not in the same place as yours. VB sent me a new one without any problems but unfortunately not correct size. So far no issues with the new one (about 3-400km).

However seeing your bar now makes me thinking of buying a new one in correct size. Maybe this could be a better alternative?

Normally you have to tension the FD wire more then you think to make it stay in the big ring position. That would be the first thing to try.

Good luck!
