Velobuild 2026 VB-R-368 AeroTrace Carbon Fiber Aero Road Bike Frame Disc Brake
Created: November 30, 2025The reviewer builds and tests the Velobuild Aerotrace 368 frame in a size medium. They are impressed with the visual appearance and overall stiffness of the frame, noting it soaks up micro-vibrations well. However, they report several issues: significant seat post slippage requiring higher-than-specified torque, poorly faced disc brake caliper mounts leading to disc rub that required creative fixes with washers, a design flaw where the rear derailleur hits the chainstay in the smallest cog, and a shorter-than-expected effective top tube length which required significant saddle adjustment. The frame is described as intended for fast, flat races and solo efforts, but not ideal for climbers or lighter riders.
AI-Summary
Pros
- Visually impressive and insane looking
- Frame is stiff and rigid
- Surprisingly not as punishing as expected, soaks up micro-vibrations
- Bearings were tight with no loose headset play
- No issues threading cables through the bottom bracket
Cons
- Seat post slippage occurs even at higher torque (8-9 Nm) than the specified 5.2-5.6 Nm
- Poorly faced disc brake caliper mounts, leading to disc rub
- Required installation of washers on the calipers to mitigate disc rub
- Design flaw: rear derailleur hits the chainstay when in the smallest (10-tooth) cog
- Shorter effective top tube length than expected for the size, requiring the saddle to be pushed all the way back
- Not ideal for climbers or super light riders
- Can feel sketchy in sudden gusts of crosswinds
Key Points
- Frame model: Velobuild Aerotrace 368
- Size tested: Medium
- Seat post angle: 72 degrees
- Torque spec for seat post: 5.2-5.6 Nm (but reviewer needed 8-10 Nm to prevent slippage)
- Intended for fast racing, solo efforts, TT races, and fast group rides on flats
- Not intended for everyday long zone 2 rides, breezy mountain descents, climbers, or lighter riders
- Effective top tube is about 12mm shorter than a Scott Foil RC Pro
