Road Bike Frames, Wheels & Components / Narrow integrated bar/stem with big flare
« Last post by PLA on Today at 04:36:20 AM »
Any integrated bar/stem with something like 35 or less top with 40 or more drop? I can't find any chiner versions as of yet.

Something like the bmc bars or what I'm guessing the new enve's will be like.

i bought 5 groups at the same time. i had 4 bikes to build and i bought a spare one in case one would be dead on arrival or self destruct immediately. Built the 4 bikes, everything was fine for weeks, i then received a frame to review so i put the spare group on that. After weeks of "this stuff is wonderful", all hell started to break loose. The 2 dead RDs aren't the only problems i've had either. Had another problem yesterday i posted on the erx/9 dedicated thread.

That's an impressive failure rate.

I went for the Pearl White.

I also asked Perry if they could customize the forks to remove the bolt holes on the forks which they will do but it adds 30 days to the delivery date which gives a lead time of 80 days.

Hopefully that means a delivery date of the end of July which works very well for me and gives me time to get it ready for cross and maybe a September gravel race.

Any ideas why this outdated standard chinese frame is 850usd? The color schemes are interesting, but what else?

Road Bike Frames, Wheels & Components / One piece Carbon Wheelset
« Last post by RobinRolling on Today at 02:53:35 AM »
Hi Guys,

I am looking for a one piece wheelset like Lightweight or the Syncros. Even Storck had on the Eurobike 2023 a one piece prototype. Loving the optics and it is something special.

Do you know any Chinese Brand, that offers such a wheelset? I asked Yuanan, the OEM of Storck Zeitjaeger, but they did not produce this wheelset.

Best regards
Robin

Some updates. The included lower headset bearing lasted less than 3500km. Bike have now 5500km in total. Will switch to 30mm Continental GP5000 S TR from 25mm and see how it handles.
F frame instead of F12 frame would be fun to try.

Thank you for this thread and for keeping it updated, it's very helpful. I have very mixed feelings about riding fakes, but it's good to know that the people selling fakes aren't automatically selling garbage.

Wait so you had TWO failures with the er9 groupset and you still went ahead and got five? Or am I not reading this correctly.

"Happy as long as it's not broken" is not good enough, any failure during a 100+km ride is something that will ruin your day, and something that very rarely happens with groupsets from the big three.
