What is the weight of the bike? How much are the wheels? And which wheel manufacturer? When will the new bike videos come out? How much is the total price?
Ahoj, především chci poděkovat za fajn video. Dále bych se chtěl zeptat na velikost rámu. Pro svých 180 cm si vybral vel. 56. Jak ti tato velikost padne? Dokázal bys říct, jakou velikost bys zvolil, kdybys měřil 186 cm (inseam 86cm)? Díky, Míra
Ahoj, ja mam 180cm (inseam ~86cm) a mam ram velkosti 56, s predstavcom 80/90mm je to napohodu, ale nabuduce by som zobral 54 ram a nahodil dlhsi predstavec ;)
congratulation for the nice job! i have the same frame. only a small suggestion: please, notice that those lightweight cheap chain from aliexpress are a mass. they stretch only after few km of use and the risk is to jeopardize also the cassette and even the crank. i warmly suggest you to buy a 15€/$ basic KMC one.
@@giovannizorra3803 exactly I have had 2 chains from aliexpress and both were super stretched after ~300km, usually on sram/shimano chains I can get ~3-4000km. But rest of the components from china are good quality and I already bought another climbing cassette from Ali
@@lukas0suky good do know that the chains did not ruin the cassette. I am the happy owner of a Chinese frame, with several Chinese components. Although, for wheel and group I opted for more renown brands.
@@giovannizorra3803 I would not be afraid of Chinese carbon wheel as well, I have been riding really hard gravel and rocks and they run perfect, still strait, no adjustments were needed out of the box and they still hold true. I got "elitewheels" if you are interested. There is only one annoyance, free-hub is very loud.
@@lukas0suky no doubts about the quality of material, but I had some negative feedback about assemblage and spokes quality. Anyway, I consider alloy wheels more suitable for rough gravelly path. If in future I will decide to upgrade to carbon wheels, it is very possibile I will look for a chinese solution.
I ended up buying a power meter and DUB crankset, which is running a little bit worse. Overall, the bike runs great! It is a good compromise of performance and price. I just ended up with better grip tape for comfort on rough terrain.
Cool video dude! I am doing something similar! It seem you got the Elite road wheels but added gravel tires? Is that correct? And if so, how does it feel? The max recommended size they mention on their page is 35mm!
Thanks! Correct, elite wheels. Those wheels are not exactly gravel ready, since the internal width is only 19mm, better would be something like 23mm internal. But I was running 38 and 40 tires without issue but it does not look that sleek. 35 tires look the best (out of gravel tires) and 28mm is even better but, I am primarily on 35 for now. No matter the terrain everything works like charm :)
@@samt.1369 Hey man, sadly my wheels never arrived but i had ordered the disc road wheels with 29mm inner width... Those should be fine to gravel with aswell
I would buy again if I could not find a similarly priced bike on the second-hand market. I am noticeably quicker on flats and hills, running on gravel is not a problem at all. Generally awesome solution if you like to save a few bucks.
~530USD for the frame + ~190USD for shipping + 2-5% payment processing fee + custom pain job if you want (which I declined) + maybe import fees == total for me was 750USD
You amaze me. You buy a nice frame and some kickass shimano drivetrain parts and decide to cheap out on a Bottom Bracket from Aliexpress? The BB is literally one of the cheapest parts you can get from Shimano at a much better quality.
I built a Carbonda 505 a year ago...such a rewarding experience! I couldn't even fix a derailleur before and now I am thinking about a second built 🤣
Could you please add part list with links in description?
Great video! Is the headset used in the video the one Carbonda sells?
it's the one that came in the box
Nice video.....enjoyed the build. . 👍
Thanks!
Zdarec. Taky se k tomu snad někdy dokopu. Ať se daří.

this frame almost identical with mine Lexon GFX

I sow now that you already "tested" your bike.
I hope everything has gone well :)

Ahoj, moc pěkná stavba. Chystám se na to samé. Předpokládám, že s rámem jsi spokojený?
Ahoj, ram super, nemam ziadne staznosti (odjazdene 6000+ km)
Nice work!
Even those cranks look ok
What would u change?

Very cool man! My wheels are on the way as we speak! Will be a great build im sure, thanks for your reply and the info :)
@@spirospandis975Did you get the Elite gravel wheelset?

I got a full refund btw
May i know what size of frame is and height? Plan ro purchase a carbonda framese, but couldn't decide on size
180cm size56 I am running 80mm stem
@@lukas0suky thx
What is your inseam height?
What are you thoughts on this frame thus far and the quality? Well worth the price?

I also built a 696 and find it is a brilliant frame. I even consider to sell my roadbike and buy wheelsets for the 696, I like the frame that much.
how far did you have to run the shift cable outers? on my frame end caps seem to slip through the down tube cable guide thingy...
I do not need to run outers in the frame, cables stop when they need to. Try to ask for a new stopper
How much for the frame + shipping?
~530USD for the frame + ~190USD for shipping + 2-5% payment processing fee + custom pain job if you want (which I declined) + maybe import fees == total for me was 750USD

Well someone needs to try it 🤷 5000km in and it's still ok, next time I will try shimano ;)
