Exactly, apart from that I can‘t stand the look of the TT-X18  Will probably go with the Ceccotti C27 as I can get it for sub 500 incl shipping + taxes. Won‘t pull the trigger before gettong a quote from long teng for the 268.

cecotti is a nice one if it fits your needs in terms of geometry, look and colour options. not the best finish but u get what you pay for

Hum not really 1300€ for the TT-R18
1050$ with DPD shipping no additional tax
1050$ is 920€ = impossible to beat

Geometry looks good to me as it‘s somewhat close to  my dads Stevens Arcalis which I really like. Finish doesn‘t bother me too much as long as there aren‘t any major flaws so I think Ceccotti will do the job just fine.

I‘m also kinda thinking about going with an alloy frame as the C27 is kinda heavy for a carbon one but I can‘t find anything locally that I like and I kinda don‘t want to bother/search for good and cheap chiner ones so I guess it‘s already decided
