2024 Twitter C6 - Budget Alloy road frame

[plsg08]

Managed To grab myself a frameset only of the new Twitter C6.

Frame looks solid so far; my only gripe is that it came with a 250mm seatpost and it's an aero shaped/D-shaped seatpost. I want to look for a longer seatpost preferably around 300mm to 350mm. I've asked the seller if its possible to get one but sadly they said that they only make that dimension for the seatpost.

I was just wondering if the shape and size of the seatpost a standard for another frame like a Giant is or a Specialized, etc.; the dimensions are 34.2mm x 24.9mm (I'll get the profile of the D Shape tomorrow after work)

I've also asked the seller if it's possible to buy a longer seatpost elsewhere, but so far, they haven't gotten back to me, so I'll wait for their reply.

It looks like a pretty solid frame so far. Can't really build it up yet but i will update the thread when I can

Around $200 w/ shipping. Alloy frame with carbon fork. Took around a week to get to me since I live in SEA.

yea according to their Geo charts, I'm a size extra small, my bike before this was a size small Sunpeed Kepler, and the XS C6 has a little longer reach compared to the kepler. 

I'll look around for a java/sava seatpost. It's kinda hard since no one really puts the dimensions of the post with D-shaped/Aero shaped seatpost. I'll just keep digging.

Those aero/D-shape seatposts sadly are all a pain in the ass to replace. Almost all of them are proprietary and you can only use the one that came with the frame or replacements directly from the frame's manufacturer.

I wish you luck though finding one. If this is a re-brand from another frame, you might be lucky but usually it's a dead end :/

This is very interesting and definitely opened my eyes on how far cheap alloy frames have gotten lately… If only it was a little bit lighter, something like the Emonda ALR for example… I’d be all over it.

Definitely update us OP, I am very interested to see what the bike ends up looking like!
