Re: Yishunbike G095D (Speed Gravel) I bought the frame from Yinshun Germany. They only had one left in my size available. And I have to do the paint job myself, that only goes through Yinshun Asia and with at least 3 frames.

Has cost the frame with shipping, 890€

HMPF - How´s it going with the build?
Very curious on the result and your opinions on the frame.

I have built the frame and am extremely happy with it.
It's currently in the winter edition with mudguards and lights.

What exactly are you interested in, then I can go into it?

Re: Yishunbike G095D (Speed Gravel) Communication:
First of all, I would like to emphasize the very good contact with Kitty. She replies quickly and gave me very good advice when I wanted to know something about the structure. She also asked me several times how I was getting on with the frame and whether I needed anything else. I then ordered 2 more spacers, a spare derailleur hanger and an adapter so that I can attach saddles with 7 x 9 rails.

Design:
I love the design of the bike. The wide down tube with a partial D-shape. I particularly like the overhang towards the rear wheel.
The paint job is just a trial, I'll redo it in the summer.

Assembly:
The assembly worked very well. The brake lines with silencers were very easy to push through. The axle mounts are made to measure and fit perfectly.

There are good bolt-on options for the mudguards and I was able to fit them without any tinkering. However, I think the distance between the top and the tire is too big. You could use another part on the bridge of the rear triangle to bring the mudguard closer to the tire.  (And yes, the mudguards destroy the steepness of the blade-shaped seat tube)

There are only problems with the cockpit: The spacer tower twists even though the headset is adjusted and the stem is tightened. I have not yet found a solution for this.

The attachment for the seat post works very well, but the adhesive has come off the lock nut, which is not so good.


Driving behavior:
The bike is very stable, especially at high speeds from 30 km/h.

There is a small toe overlap (frame size 54/shoe size 43), but this can be eliminated when the mudguards are off.

For me, the geometry is sporty and more geared towards aerodynamics than comfort.

Equipment:
I am currently riding with the following setup:
Shifter: Red and Force
- 2 x 12 with 50/34 K-Light crank and 10-33 Force cassette
- Force rear derailleur with Gabaruk cage (not worth it for the cassette, I'll put it back)
- Rival front derailleur (has to be adjusted very carefully)
- The crank will be swapped for a Force with Sram chainrings. It's not working perfectly yet.
- Elitewheels Edge 50mm wheelset (very light and very cheap 1320 grams at 522€)
- Continental Grand Prix Urban 35mm (work perfectly for me in fall and winter when commuting)
- Toseek handlebars
- Red brake body, Dura Ace rotors (works perfectly)
- SKS Bluemels mudguards: The best, lightest and cheapest, simply trouble-free

Weight/cost:
The bike weighs 8.2Kg complete and cost 1900€. The mudguards weigh 500 grams and come off in summer.
The frame cost 844€ with all accessories (seatpost, thru axle, headset). The adapter for 7x9 rails cost 18€ and the additional spacers 5€.


pros:
- special design
- wide range of equipment options (luggage rack/mudguards/front light on the fork)
- aerodynamic
- good contact and service

cons:
- Spacer tower twists
- Data sheet no longer online (but available by email)
- unclear whether you get a frame or not

neutral:
- pressfit bearing
- proprietary seatpost

Re: Yishunbike G095D (Speed Gravel) Brief update:
I have replaced a few parts:
- Force crank
- Flattop chains
- Elitaone carbon saddle
- Gabaruk cage for the original Force cage (with Kogel derailleur pulleys)


Now the drivetrain works perfectly. It is quiet and shifts very smoothly.

The only problem I still have is that the cover for the fork shaft is twisted. Does anyone have any ideas on how to change this?

Re: AXS Batteries I bought some from the RRskit brand.
The battery of the rear derailleur lasted 450 km until the LED flashes red.

The front derailleur has lasted 900km and is still green.

I paid €15.11 per battery in December 2023. This is no longer so cheap, but the price is between 20-25€.
