Time to roll out a new thread, as 6.0 is getting a bit unwieldy. Remember please, no counterfeits.
I've built di2 hydraulic. There is no 6870 version levers. The only di2 levers are the R785.anyone built a di2 with hydraulic disc brakes ?
I'm looking to build one, but am wondering about shifters. At first glance it seems I can only go with Shimano R785's, think this model is about 3 years old now and quite large compared to the newer 6870 version.
That was me. I've waiting for the warmer weather to really test it out but to no avail (been riding my "dirty" bike instead). But my extended evaluation on 905 is coming.Does anyone have any info or experience with the 905? I saw one person here has ordered it (and couldn't get 28mm tires to fit), but I never saw an overall report.
That is a lovely looking bike, was that your own paint scheme?It's been a while since I have been on this thread. I just wanted to share pics of my build and just give my 2 pence if it helps another member.
I bought a frame (YCRDF01) from Yoeleo. Initially things didn't go brilliantly. Yoeleo provided me a fork that was disc compatible but the frame only had v-brake mounts. I contacted Yoeleo with my obvious disappointment. I was informed that I would need to wait 3-4 weeks for the correct frame to come into stock and then added time of shipping.
Contacting Yoeleo is easy prior to your purchase and their responses are very quick. I found after the order, their communications was some what slower.
Ultimately, Yoeleo sent me a replacement frame without the fork. I had gone for 3K weave and I then painted the colour scheme myself.
I am using 105 5800 groupset and TRP HY-RD disk brakes. The wheels are form another Chinese supplier (sorry I forget the name). The frame is a joy. Whilst this is my first road bike, so I cannot compare with other bikes, I can say this bike feels quick and agile. Overall inc. pedals it weighs 8kg. I am not fussed about the bike weight as I need to loose 10kg (5'7" - 80KG :blush2 before I can consider trimming weight of the bike.
I still have the wrong frame (minus the fork) from Yoeleo as I presume it would have cost them too much for me to send it back to China.
Any questions, please feel free to ask.
