Meezo Posted December 2, 2014 Share This was Sunday, was to broken on Sunday to finish off after Die Burger, also need olive and barb inserts for shimano hoses as the rear runs internally through the frame. I think as it stands this build may still be under R10k. Hopefully finish it tonight bar front axle, i forgot to order with fork, ordered it afterwards still waiting for it to get here JGR, Steven Knoetze (sk27) and Oracle BoB 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meezo Posted December 2, 2014 Share Is that the FR 216 from flyxxi? it looks like the one I am considering purchasing, I would appreciate it if you can give me some feedback on build quality, especially stuff like bosses, bb / headset and ease of assembly, internal routing etc... yes it is. built one a couple month back for hubber @BigMac, he's done RideTheRhino, Cape Pioneer, W2W and Origin of Trails on it. He said at the Pioneer the team he rode for he's bike was the only bike which had absolutely no issues. The build quality is really great, i've taken some carbon bits to @BogusOne, who himself built a bike from carbon, says sometimes these China carbon bits are built stronger as the overcompensate so to speak. The BB, simple i use the normal screw in/GXP/BSA BB's The Headset, absolutely nothing wrong with the Neco Headset they supply with the frames, simply no tools needed. Internal routing, well if you don't like working with the brakes/fluid then it can be a schlep, but really its simple. The difference between the FR216 and the FR202 i've been building with regards to cable routing, the FR202 does full internal routing, in a sense the cable housing runs from shifter to derailers, unlike FR216 the cable housing runs from shifter to cable stop then through the frame then cable stop to derailer.

Mopkop Posted December 2, 2014 Share The FR216 is a brilliant frame. Stiff, light and she goes like a bat outa hell!!! My 19" weighs 1336g, the UD gloss finish is sexy too Really good value for money and its got place for 2 bottle cages Go for it!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
