Here's mine with mudguards, I have a vague confirmation that 52/36 will work - from the person who put the mudguards on.

Asking in here - is this frame easily able to work with Di2?

Sorry for the dredge - was installing Di2 painful?

Hello. There seems to be a pretty good deal on the FE-02 on alix at the moment.
This seems to be the most active FE-02 thread, so...
What are people's opinions of the frame, the process, and what it's like in terms of mud clearance.
I know you can get a 50 in there - I raced (badly) CX this season and had a really bad time with my frame getting coated in mud and there being no clearance.
I like the FE 806 but again note the clearance is 38c max (which is what I have on my 2015 canti crux)....

Interested to see a 52/36 working on this.
(I've barely ridden it since I've bought it - it's currently set up 48/36)

Subbed to this chat as I'm looking at similar (road bike, looks fast/is fast, not rim brake, 32-35c clearance (maybe mudguards!))
I think I've got down to
Quick Pro AR:One
LTK266d-SL
LCR017-D
Elves Vanyar
Haven't seen (but doesn't mean there isn't) nice pics of the Ican Flyee

I might have missed this, but has anyone in the UK ordered one of these (on here, that they can talk about)?
I'm planning to replace my current rim brake bike (Vitus Vitesse Evo - because I hate press fit bb) and I'm looking at :
LTK 266-D-SL
LCR017-D - edit i meant 17D
Elves Vanyar disc (skinny tube one)
what else is like that?

Road Bike Frames, Wheels & Components / Re: All year bike - which frame? Grevil or Carbonda 505L or other?
« on: September 19, 2025, 03:09:21 AM »Thank you all for helping me clearing up my thoughts/confusions.
My goal was to be able to use the bike all year round for training rides (outside) and perhaps even commuting. Reading your comments I think I'm going to have a separate bike for commuting, and hope that around 35c will be enough for doing rides on well kept roads most of the year.
I have a 505 for almost the same reasons (no commuting - wfh mostly). Apart from the lack of mudguard mounts the 505 is the all round bike. It looks nice too. It'lll take 50/34 which is a nice sensible road choice.
I bought it for:
Outdoors
Road rides
Off road rides

I have the 505 SL. It's great. I've ridden it twice since I got it in July. Mainly because it's only set up at 48/36 for allroad/winter stuff. However. There are no mudguard mounts.
So it would be pclips and cable ties. Or threaded thru axles, light brackets, bridge mounts etc. And maybe velcro under the front crown. Or those horrible looking speed rocker things.

I bought a Carbonda 505SL as an all road, I've been out on it 3 times and like it. I'm hoping to get it out on some off road stuff soon. But so far so good. It's only got capacity for 50/34 and it doesn't have mudguard mounts.

I got a couple of the microshims and it's all worked out great. Very happy.

My 505 SL is in the shop getting built into a bike. Hooray!
Bike shop called today as they're having an issue with the headset.
I have the top cap that allows integrated bars, but until I sort out my position properly I'm only going to use "normal" bars and stem.
Will those FSA microspacers work?

The top cap is binding with the top of the head tube. Normally you can put a spacer between the compression ring and top cap but you can’t with this design.
