  • That seatpost is actually longer than the seat tube. Surely this is not good structurally?

  • It's my bike, I just discovered it has been posted here...
    I agree that it's not good structurally - I bought the frame online, and kinda messed up the measurements - and I was thinking that it would be a tad bigger.
    (hence the spacers and longer stem)

    Well, I must admit I was rather nervous during the first times I rode it, thinking that the tube would snap on me at anytime.
    But it seems to hold on just fine.
    As for the cranks, I chose them because they were compatible with a 73 mm BB shell while offering a 5 bolts, 110 BCD ; those are actually quite rare if you want to stay away from square taper BBs.
