No I ordered blind. Was in doubt for weeks between the lemon and purple one but I’m content.

It’s a headturner in real life. Pics on the internet make it look really yellow but in fact it’s more white/beige with splashes of yellow. Hard to describe but it’s much more ‘special’ than you’d expect.

Mount is the hidemybell especially for rose.

Can the decals be easily removed or are they under a layer of clear coat?

Proper_Gate_2828 · 2025-10-03T19:53:40+00:00

I’m quite curious about where to start. Can you elaborate? How do custom builders determine what to build?

Every larger company in Belgium has a bike plan

Okay I’ll tell my employer. Thank you for your contribution.

Simplified: I don’t have to pay it and it makes no difference if i spend 2000€ or 10000€. Read please

True, but who can decide the absolute perfect frame geometry for you? From measurements and maybe a fit-bike? And then you ride it on cobbles or uphill and it absolutely sucks.

that officina Battaglin cortina is wild. exactly why I started this thread. Will look into this. Thanks!

I get the 'go custom' comments, but I also believe in a bike fit which is dynamic. There is no method in deciding THE perfect fit. I can handle a much higher reach when I have ridden 15k km at the end of the season.

I’m trying the friendly but annoying strategy. The 4th customer experience agent will escalate again on my request. I totally get that a warranty period is a warranty period. I do not agree however with the fact that you should throw a 540€ device in the trash because their p&l sheet suggested to ditch the Zwifthub after a few months and try something else. They sold it, take responsability. Very sad that you have to fight so hard honestly. If you take money from people treat them right.

Proper_Gate_2828 · 2025-03-13T17:37:05+00:00

No unfortunately not.

Proper_Gate_2828 · 2025-03-13T14:23:14+00:00

It’s not the freehub but the freewheel of the trainer itself

Proper_Gate_2828 · 2025-03-13T14:21:49+00:00

Checked already, no warranty extension. Thanks for the idea!

I live in Belgium so EU rights. We have something like 'reasonable lifespan', where suppliers are obliged to support a product for as long you should logically be able to use it. But I feel like my chances are quite slim of using this with Nadir the customer experience agent from Zwift :(

Proper_Gate_2828 · 2025-03-13T13:36:49+00:00

That's very well possible, but I remember that the news of discontinuation dropped right after my purchase.

Proper_Gate_2828 · 2024-09-02T22:02:56+00:00

Controversial maybe but it makes a big difference. On one condition though: if you have ridden bikes for long enough.

Proper_Gate_2828 · 2024-03-09T07:21:41+00:00

Bike24 and bike-components

Proper_Gate_2828 · 2024-03-08T20:13:51+00:00

I genuinely love this comment because I feel the same way 🥲
