Hi! Very precious build,good job😊
Please what kind of grease do you use for the bottom bracket and the headset? Thank you😊

[@custombikefactory]

I use ceramic grease and Shimano anti seize. The main job of it should be to repel watter as the bearings are running isolated and sealed inside on own type of more dynamic type of grease. If bearings would be open, than I would use dynamic grease.

a que se debe la cinta que se le pone en la valvula?

[@custombikefactory]

Las válvulas de metal pueden hacer ruido en algunas llantas y la cinta las hace silenciosas.

gracias
