It all started when I build cheap 700c wheelset on Deore hubs and AlexRims MD19 for my old cross country TREK 8500.
I used two wheelsets: 27,5" on RoRo 2.1 for cross country and 700c on Lifeline 25c for road riding.
XC bike on a road wheels is a weird thing, so i decided to find cheap disc road frame.
There are no cheap alloy disc frames on russian market, so i started to search carbon frames on aliexpress and i found FLYXII FR-603
I know that it is a cyclocross frame, but anyway should be fine for road build.
I spent only 220$ for Frame and Wuzei carbon fork.
Frame weight 1129gr in 55cm size. Paint quality is poor: shagreen, bubbles, paint runs, etc.
As a reparation for defects seller sent me a carbon bottle cage.
Despite paint defects frame is not bad itself. Geometry and sizing is OK.
Seatpost, headset, bottom bracket and brake caliper was mounted without any issues.
I had 10 speed 10-34 cassette on my road wheelset, so i decided to put 10 speed transmission.
Fortunately, I found brand new shimano 5703 dual control on Aliexpress for 70$!
Other parst are:
rear derrailleur 9 speed XT shadow
front derrailleur Deore, Crankset Shimano LX/hone 48/63/26
handle bar, seatpost and saddle are all chinese carbon from aliexpress.
stem - UNO 7 110mm
Brakes - TRP Spyre
pedals shimano 520
Build is not over yet.
just need to put handlebar tape and mount pedals.
Before summer season start planning to rebuild wheelset on XT 775 hubs.
Overall bike wheelset is about 9kg. Not lightweigth, but ok for the price.
