TanTan TT-X21 frame

[ldavies]

I am thinking of putting di2 on a tt=x21.  Can someone share how they connected the battery into the seat post on their bike?

Are you satisfied with the bike so far ?

Mine! 

@max_the_rider Did you buy this as a complete bike, painted by TanTan?  What groupset is on it and can you share how much this cost?  Thx much

Hi everyone,

I'm refreshing this topic to show you my future bike!

This is my first experience with TanTan and I'm very satisfied with the service so far. I had very specific requirements for this turnkey bike, and Rose from TanTan was very helpful.  Here are the photos I received today.

Description :
TT-X21 custom paint Size 56
50mm carbon rims with Continental GP500
Shimano 105 Di2

They should ship it this week, I can't wait to receive it.

I will update as soon.

When it arrives can you share where the battery is placed?  Is it inside the seat post like most bikes or in the down tube.  I am thinking of going Di2 on a x21.  If it is place in the seat post is there a custom braket to make it stay there?  If it is in the down tube what stops it rattling around?  Thanks much.

I bought this frame back in 2020 with this custom design, and only the frame from Tantan. I built the bike by myself.

About the groupset, it's a full mechanical Ultegra R8000... A real pain in the a** with the handlebar but it works flawlessly!

Frame 599$, custom design 70$, thru axle 24$ and shipping fees (to Switzerland) 85$

The current configuration is:

TT-X21 size 52
Full mech Ultegra R8000
Magene P505 powermeter with 52/36 Spécialités TA chainrings
Prime Primavera 56 wheels
Conti GP5000S TR

Same size as the one I built for my son but 105/ultegra groupset mix with 160mm cranks, aliexpress saddle, look pedals, 4i crank based power meter, Farsports wheels set up tubeless, vittoria tyres.

I'm considering a TT-X21 frame and wondering about tire clearance. TanTan lists the maximum tire width as 32mm, but I'm curious if any owners have successfully run wider tires? I'm also thinking about possibly getting a second wheelset for light gravel riding, so any insights on how much extra clearance might be available would be really helpful.
