No, it is 1"1/8 - 1" 1/2

Had to ask specifically for that headtube in order to be able to use it

Hello guys,

Here you have some pics of my Bike Mielec project. I still have to cut a bit of the cable of the front brake but I think it has ended in a pretty decent bike :)

Cheers!

shouldne you wait on the headset tlii the frame is deleviered? as long as its tapered your fork should be fine.

Yes, normally I wait to get the headset but I got it for free :) So I can't complain about it. It is a pity that it won't work.

yea sure it works. Not sure if chris king has headset like that but hope pick n mix has both of those quite likely.

I have googled a little bit and apparently there are many models of Chris King headsets available. I will go for one of them

Thank you all!!!

Hello guys,

It's been 3 months already since I ordered to Robert my frame and I am still waiting for it due to certain misunderstandings with the concept of tapered semi-integrated headtube and the fact that he uses google translator. Sometimes is kind of difficult to understand him with specific terms but finally I think he got the message.

The fact is that I want to use a tapered fork with the dimensions I attach you and I already had a headset that apparently doesn't fit in the tubes that Robert uses.

He has told me today that he could build the frame with a headtube with upper 44mm(1 1/8'') and Lower 49mm (1 1/2'') measures.

I know my question is kind of stupid, but will it work with my fork? I've seen that there are 02938402938423 kind of standards in the measures of tapered headsets and I have found a bunch of them that fit in my budget but I am not used to this concepts and I don't want a frame that doesn't fit in the fork that I already have.

Thank you in advance for your help guys!

Thank you both! I checked transmission database in advance and didn't found anything related to a related to this specific frame, nor to Mielec ones (one post without answer)

I've read in the webpage of FSA and it recommends the 110.5 mm bottom bracket. I guess I will wait to have everything together and then decide what cog am I going to use (my city in Spain have several uphills and this fact is kind of tricky to use the bike in fixed gear mode)

Thank you! :)

Thank you butchers dog!!! I meant the spindle length. I've read many stuff about it but I am in a mess.

The crankset I bought is the FSA Gimondi (you can see it in this link) http://www.velosolo.co.uk/gimondi.html

And I think the spindle lenght for a triple triangle frame in L size should be 107mm

But not sure at all!!

Thank you for your help. I owe some beers here already :)

Do you know the specs of the bottom bracket that I need to buy? I ordered the frame but I forgot to ask that to Robert!

Thank you @Eule and @Indraripper. :)

Thank you young gun! :)

Now I just need to know the max tyre width for the rear wheel

(Sorry, I forgot something and apparently I cannot edit my posts :P )

What is the diameter for the seatpost in this frames?

Thaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaanks

I am about ordering the triple triangle frame for my new project.

Could somebody tell me what is the max. tyre width for the rear wheel that can fit in this frame?

And also: I've seen in the pink frames some kind of "effect" (in Spanish, we call it "metallic effect"). Is that actually an option for the paintjobs? I asked for a glossy white frame but I was told no glossy paintjobs were done.

Robert seems a nice guy but maybe with these days is kind of slow to answer all the mails and I would like to ask all at once in order to do the bank transfer asap

Thank you in advance for your help :)

Can the wheelset be sold separately?

I am interested on it
