I bought the same bike about 3 months ago, and I'm in love with it, mainly because of the price and the decent weight. Started to swap some (open box/used) parts on it: Crank Brothers Stamp 3 pedals, non-ramped 39T chainring, FSA 90mm stem, wide MTB flat handlebar, WTB Volt, titanium headset spacers, Maxxis Holy Roller, Up next: fatter foam grips, TRP Spyre brakes, integrated headset, bigger rear cassette because I live in the mountains,
That is more or less my plan. I've already swapped in a super long 450mm seatpost and found a longer, higher rise stem. Just ordered a different stem and riser bars since the stock bars are too narrow. Once the ergos are sorted, will play around with the gearing. I might go to a 46t chainring and see how that works.
You have and suggestions on dialing in the brakes? I've never had a bike with discs and I can't seem to get them adjusted so it brakes smoothly, fronts have a bit of shudder in them, I'm betting the caliper isn't square?
You ride it yet Just put mine together, heading out for a spin in a few. I'm finding the disc brakes very fiddly, I can't get the front adjusted so it brakes smoothly.

PFULMTL I am already finding myself wanting to swap parts. I told myself I wasn't going to spend more than the bike cost in upgrades...
Swap for comfort, more than performance, and it seems worth it.

Hey Aaron, I have the folding F2 which seem to be very similar to this. Does the V1 have bosses and mounting points for a rear rack? Thanks.
Hey there, Just wondering if you, or anyone, knows the steerer tube diameter for the fork? ie 1" or 1 1/8". Thanks
scott williams It's a 1-1/8"
