You can learn a lot about a bike on a windy day. They are all ok on calm days. Like you, I am no fan of integrated cockpits. Simple enough to change though. Looking good....
Happy to see you finished (kinda) the build and were able to ride it already! Given everything you experienced with the frame from build to first ride - would you still buy it again?
Thanks! It’s been good! I wish I had a bit better skills. But that was suppose to be what this was about! Of course yeah! Had it not been for the lack of tools I would’ve done the last bit myself. Rides great too
@@PatrickLinook, In 268... But what i was mentioning is your setup on 177 with that FSA headset to Run the cables inside... Not full hide cables but they can go inside.
im interested how the paintjob will be holding up. I had a icebreak red painted 168 and the paint chipped on multiple points with minor contact. Maybe i was just unlucky, hope yours will hold up better.

That looks sick. 🤙
Thank you for the informative video! Dislikes asider, would you recommend this frameset? Have any issues came up since the initial ride?
Love it!
What size frame without pedals?
how tall are you?

Hi Owain, about the combo bars and Change it, you can watch Patrick Lino video...i think he did that on 268 but did it on other velobuild frames.
Hey man. Yeah I watched it. Not 100% sure which set up he has.. I have a plan 👀
It's a secret!!
Secret FSA? 😁
@@JorgeSantos-zk6ju I run integrated bars.

I’ll keep you updated! It’s not gonna get LOADS of miles to be honest. But 🤞🏼 for sure.
Nice build man. What about that bottle cage and bottle? No rattle?
It’s horrible! Swpped it out for a fidlock one!
