I will build a carbon road bike on the Chinese frame TRIFOX. When building the bike, it was pleasant to work with the frame, it was without any problems. The result is a nice and surprisingly light bike. Few comments about the build... I have to praise the well prepared cable routing through the frame which is easy to service. The thread on the bottom bracket seems to me - in the era of all sorts of pressers - also superb. Hopefully sometime after Christmas the roads will dry up so I can try it out and share with you my first impressions of the ride.
V dnešním videu postavím silniční karbonové kolo TRIFOX na čínském rámu. Při stavbě kola se s rámem pracovalo dobře, bez jakýchkoliv problémů. Výsledkem je pěkné a překvapivě lehké kolo. Pár poznatků z mé práce... Musím pochválit vedení lanek rámem, dobře připravené a jednoduše servisovatelné. Závit na středové složení mně přijde v době všemožných lisovaček , také lepší. Snad někdy po Vánocích oschnou silnice abych ho mohl vyzkoušet a podělit se s vámi o první dojmy z jízdy.

It's a great - such nice frame and a perfect set of components some claim that the frame is better than Specialized Tarmac ... Maybe ...

Very nice build! The bike looks impressive and specially in the era of disk brakes and Di2 it’s nice to see an old school bike with no full integration of cables, which are a pain when it comes to maintenance.

Nice build - Trifox is definitely a brand to watch, great value. I have mine (X16 - 52cm) on full Tiagra 4700 groupset and ICAN 38mm wheels currently at 7.5kg. A few simple changes planned will bring it down to about 7.2kg road ready including bottle cage, pedals and computer mount.

OnRoad Vintage Bikes, is your rear derailleur working well? I abandoned to use the cable guide plate at under BB of the frame when I built my Trifox X16. I had to put outer cable of rear derailleur in through the frame to make my rear derailleur working well. I believe both the cable guide plate and Its rear derailleur hanger have less stiffness for accurate shifting.

I can't seem to be able to find this information. I'm a tall rider, 190cm and this distance needs to be a minimum of 800mm to fit me well. Any info will be greatly appreciated.
