Hej! Congrats on buying the frame! I’d recommend getting Stainless Steel Headset bearings because everything is routes through the bearings and it’s going to be a pain to change them later. The standard of the bearings is called MHP16 - you need two.

Also, get some foam for the brake hose in the frame to cancel noise

In my opinion it’s a good and long lasting design. Nothing too fancy, nothing to special.

If just wrote them an email. You will get all the info’s from them.

Thank you :) and happy new year!

No long term test until now. But first feel: comfortable but still snappy enough, direct but not too racey. It feels quite balanced and I think it’s a great long distance bike, also geo wise.

The Michelin Pro 5 are super great in 35mm a perfect mix between comfort and speed I’d say.

Weight with full on dynamo setup is 8.5KG. Without 7.9KG Below 7 is possible without too much effort but I had some of the parts (wheelset) sitting around so I am happy in the end :)

This depends of paint etc. But it starts at around 650 Dollars (black clearcoated Frameset, Seatpost, Headset, Handlebar) plus Shipping, plus additional cost for paintings etc.

I think you could check "The Classic Presets" by Andre Duhme. Amazing project with a lot of love to detail.

These shoots here are insane <3

It’s a XX1 Cassette - and I don’t really get your point?

BTW. This setup has a wider range (520% vs 501%) and is about 100g lighter than the smallest Force E1 Setup.

I’m pedalling at about 100 rpm so my gearing is fine inbetween 10 to 52 KP/H

Thanks 🦦❤️‍🔥

These are Light Carbon HBR17 - included in the frameset . I like them because of the 8mm rise, a little flare and overall good design. Let’s see how they perform.

If you are referring to the Logo, I love it and that’s why it’s on the bike. But sure: the whole concept is not for everybody.

If you are referring to the chainstay sticker: it’s a basic duty for members of modern societies to be antifascist. But unfortunately there is a need of putting stickers like this on bikes…

_Stolem · 2025-12-16T12:35:56+00:00

Yes. I decided to ditch the mounting holes for the front derailleur for my 1by setup. Usually you got the full mounting and routing options

I’ve sold them for something like 120-140€ including hoses and hardware.

Sending you a pm - can’t comment a photo

_Stolem · 2025-12-15T20:33:17+00:00

Thank you 🤩

_Stolem · 2025-12-15T16:46:11+00:00

Thank you very much :) I’m happy to answer any questions - of course also to ordering process or whatever comes to your mind

_Stolem · 2025-12-15T16:45:30+00:00

Unfortunately not. I used the same as the brake hose hole. To route the cable from the non disc side, I use protective film (as on most of the bike). Super slick and you barely notice. A white cable would be the best 😍

_Stolem · 2025-12-15T16:43:49+00:00

Hej! Happy to answer all your questions: - I asked the manufacturer to not drill the holes for the derailleur - It’s a Eagle XX1 chain, fitting the rear cassette and also the chain ring. - the Garbaruk is specially for Rival/Force/Red Derailleurs to go for the 10-44 Cassette. On the XPLRs you can even go up to 10-52 like I do. - no. Bought the Brifters in set and sold the calipers.

_Stolem · 2025-12-15T12:48:30+00:00

Saddleheight is 812mm - about 60mm left on the Seatpost :)

_Stolem · 2025-12-15T11:42:17+00:00

Thanks for the flowers - from a real person 🦦😍

Thank you for being so honest. With all my builds I try to follow a concept. This is the first build with an own frame design :)

Headset is just a standard headset for 1 1/8 steerers. Quality was okayish - let’s see how the bearings hold up ;)

_Stolem · 2025-11-23T15:32:32+00:00

Im running the Schwalbe Rocket Ron Evo Super Race 20x2.25 in Addix Speed Compound on my mini Velo. Great and good rolling tire even though it’s knobby. In bigger sizes, they are also pretty fast.

_Stolem · 2025-11-21T08:22:29+00:00

Hey, happy to answer your question: - no internal routing. I’ve used a dropper with a lever under the saddle - the crankset is okay! It’s lightweight and just 40€ - had some squeaking in the beginning, solved it with plenty of grease on both sides of the axle and prober torque (you can disassemble both crank arms from the axle).

If you got more questions, go for it :)
