    Shot @DobriThanks for the headsup. I will check it out and see what I can do around that.
  3. Gerlach
    Thanks. Yes. Patiently waiting for it to see how it looks when it arrives. Yes. 27.2mm. took the option with the seat post. Didn't take the the handle option with. Want to do that setup on it's own when i get it to get the correct length. Like you mentioned , I like the traditional frame design to. My TCR is the same and it visually just looks better. AHHAHAHAHAHHAHAaaaaa I hope for there part it's inside cable routing, or I will email the frame back to them at Alixpress. Just joking. I'm not really stress about that, A grinder and drill can fix anything 🤣 😜

    coming from a bike mechanics perspective. you can actually easily use standard bar and stem with internal cable routing. what i've done for a few clients is I've drilled a hole or make a groove through one of the spacers or headset top cap depending on which will be structurally the strongest part. neatly run the cable under the stem and you're good to go.

    Excited to see how it turns out!! Thanks for sharing, please do keep us updated as you go.

    Good luck with your build, I bought the same / similar frame and one small issue is the seat post, it is secured with a wedge kind of bracket and a small screw, without tightening it to hard so it could break the carbon I could not get it right, it would get lose and the seat post would drop after riding on corrugation, stop and lift, secure it again etc. Huge irritation. So I cut and had to insert a small piece from a coke can around the seat post and that wedge bracket to secure it properly, it is working but not sure if I will ever be able to remove the seat post again. If I buy another frame I will rather chose one that secures the seat post with a normal ring type of bracket.

    Looks great, I definitely visually prefer the traditional frame design than dropped seat stays. Be interesting to hear what the finish quality is like. Standard 27.2 round seatpost? What's the cable routing? That's supposedly a major problem for some people! Wouldn't want you to have to boycott Temu if your cable routing expectations aren't met 😆

    I took the carbon black one because i want to do a custom spray work on it. One in blue and white: Here is Pearl bike one: https://pearl-cycles-usa.com/gravel-sl-evo

    He did get a minute or two of coverage yesterday when he had to change bikes. I am sure we will see some coverage of him later on.

    I doubt AH is there for his own personal GC ambitions. Ben O' Connor is their GC rider & Pascal Ackerman is their sprinter, would definitely be riding in support of these 2 guys especially since they lost 2 riders already.

    Given how the last 2 stages went & the history of the Giro, I'm no longer making any predictions going forward.

    Come on, share some pics! [edit - and I don't mean of the emails...]
  15. NotSoBigBen
    Do whatever you like you'll be fine tomorrow 😜 Nee jammer ek het nie fortnite nie 😎 You'd have to zoom in to that second pic 😉

    I made my own version of the wooden tool holder. granted I only have an impact driver and drill, but made provision for more tools further down the line. just had a piece of scrap plywood shelving that i used, nothing pretty or exciting, but works well

    …been looking at THIS for some of my INGCO cordless tools, I like… https://www.northernbolt.co.za/products/ingco-cordless-tool-protector-storage?srsltid=AfmBOop_K9zeMc3PdIOLWIsexXLBnhwB0w57jsGUVHXai47Q_OCyGA7b and then THIS one ticks a few boxes, too…

    Ok, we got some movement going, hopefully the frame don't come via email 🤣 Following what i can make out, by the end of the month. Did a bit of checking around and there is actually some bike brands that is using this frame. Pearl bikes is one of them, Guava Bikes new frame looks really close to it to.

    GO ALAN!!!

    Agree 100% Today's stage will give us some clues on how he can climb, and the last week on his endurance. I'm certainly holding thumbs for him. At least he kept the rubber side down to date!!!
  21. DieselnDust
    It’s his first 3 week GT. I wouldn’t expect too much. A top50 would mean a successful campaign
  22. Headshot
    Think AH should stick to MTB - have watched highlights and part of some stages of the Giro but haven't seen or heard a peep about him. Or should I take the long view and wait for the final week?
  23. Headshot
    @Titan Racing Bikes while headset cable routing might make sense on a mere road bike, I suspect you might be doing it on MTB's as well. Explain yourselves! 😅
  24. DieselnDust
    You haven’t lived ….😂

    Decided to give the Schwalbe One Performance tyres a go.
