Chinese Crabon with Di2

Posted on
  • Inspired by 'souls' SSCX build I followed suit and purchased the same frame from ebay with the intention to build up with current 105 groupset. Somehow I ending up purchasing Di2 from several places and finally completed the build last night and commuted in this morning.

    Build is:-

    chinese carbon cyclecross frame/forks
    ultegra di2 groupset
    shimano 105 chainset (46/36)
    hope xc hubs and archetype rims
    hope stem/seatpost
    fizik aliante saddle

    currnetly building up an SP dynamo to swap with the front wheel for winter duties with exposure revo front/redeye rear. Curana clite mudguards are on the way from germany to complete.

    thanks to Dammit for all the Di2 advice

    FR-602 off ebay

  • Other than the stem which I'm not really a fan of, that looks great!

    cheers. I only bought the stem to match the seatpost which I had already - I'm unsure about it too...

  • Nothing wrong with the stem, it's just the angle!

  • Lovely. How do you find the frame?

    I guessed that, may try and find a 0 deg one or see if my back would cope with 10 deg flipped?

    after first ride I thought it was great, not sure if there is much difference between that and my scott CR1 which cost 10 times as much. Very pleased with it, thanks for the inspiration...
