I'm curious about the weight of the frame without the fork/handlebar/seatpost, could you help me ?
I only realise now that the crankset is GPX, so I guess this crankset is neither compatible with a BBright bottom bracket nor with an Ultegra FD-R8000 derailleur, what do you think?There is no true GXP (22/24 mm spindle) crankset on AliX. When they refer to GXP they mean that the spider interface is 3-bolt SRAM. It has nothing to do with the spindle diameter, which can be 24 or 29mm. If the crankset you will choose has 24 mm spindle and says GXP, it means that the spider interface is 3-bolt. The spindle will fit in your current setup with BBRight for shimano spindle that you are currently using.

Hi guys.
I've received my frame and quality control seems not the best...
Would you accept this?
Got me worried..
I had to shave down the rear pads to get the brake caliper to fit!
Just got an answer which I don't like...The seatpost is totally proprietary and you won't be able to find a replacement. As for the holder for the radar light, if you have a friend that is good with 3D design, or you personally are handy with this, the holder can be designed and printed easily. Alternatively, search AliX for saddle radar light holder and there are tons of options that will allow you to mount the radar on the saddle rails, which to me looks much better than a strap on to the seatpost.
hello everyone,
does anyone recognise that frame?
thanks for the help.
I figured out that I had not torqued the compression plug.. I have the new c ring and metal spacers. Is 4-6 nm enough? I have not used carbon paste on the expander plug, which I probably should do.
thanks for your response. This is not the seatpost wedge. Its another one, much smaller compared to the seatpost wedge,
Yesterday i recieved my T1550 Gen 2 Frame. I opted for the 520 with the longest stem available (125mm). Lets see how this fit works for me! Overall i like the quality of the frame, paint and frame accesories. Speaking of which: in the frame accesories box was this little wedge. Do you know what it's for? I never had this in my previous builds.
Hey all, have been a bit of a lurker but decided to join to ask some questions proper. Recently I've been looking at Kocevlo integrated handlebars (specifically, https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005006561735597.html?spm=a2g0o.productlist.main.13.36045e3dEFnH63&algo_pvid=0e683c72-8a15-4ee0-9d19-865e363905b4&algo_exp_id=0e683c72-8a15-4ee0-9d19-865e363905b4-6&pdp_npi=4%40dis%21GBP%21119.44%2153.95%21%21%211075.08%21485.62%21%40210390c917296377002728725e1c75%2112000037679359616%21sea%21UK%210%21ABX&curPageLogUid=0vZEiUP2JIth&utparam-url=scene%3Asearch%7Cquery_from%3A#nav-review)
I've found limited information here and there so I was hoping this thread would attract all those with experiences to give their two cents - whether about the Kocevlo specifically, or about the other 'brands' of the same bar that bear the same shape (and likely come from the same manufacturer, eg, Hygge (?)).
To be clear, I'm only looking at this purely for fun - I don't race, nor do I do super long rides, but I like the look of the bars and I'm interested in the experience of fitting on new bars. £50 or so is a price I'm willing to swallow for this - if I were going to upgrade a 'proper' bike, I'd go for The One Pro handlebars or something equivalent. My bike (a B'Twin 520) is currently set up with external cables, which I'll route into the handlebars. I'll also be getting a torque wrench to properly torque this down. Not sure if I'll need carbon paste.
Grateful for any thoughts on the Kocevlo's I'm looking at, or Kocevlos in general, or other 'brands' of the same bar - or, if you have experience, tips for installing the bars on myself. Thank you so much!
This one fits. I just installed it BUT you will need to take the Dremel to the frame and the hanger...
The new hanger does not fit in the original space because there is a little too much carbon (see pic). I decided to take the risk and ground it away with my Dremel until it fit.
Second problem is that the outer part of the hanger will not fit in the hole of the new hanger. The hole is a tiny fraction to small. So again I took the Dremel and enlarged it by a fraction of a mm until both parts fitted. I did have to adjust the B-screw to increase the gap between upper pulley and lagest cog.
