Of course it's possible if the groupset itself is not damaged. With rare high end exceptions where mechanical groupsets can't be installed on some frames, it should be just a straight swap with the exception of new brake hoses and fittings. A few other compatibilities to look out for would be clearance for tire, chainrings, disc rotors but everything is probably fine
By the way the UCI certification is completely worthless and nothing but marketing if you don't race in UCI events. Not indicative of quality in any way

Thank you for your response. Do you have any advice on which frame to purchase?

yeah, a minor aesthetical change that doesn't require a lot to make work, just like lexon. The metal bits aren't just similar, they're exactly the same on driveside and non-driveside

Hey, if somebody wants to see the FM1003 in real action on video, then here is a link to my testing video.

If somebody does not like that I am kind of promoting my channel, just PM me or write it in here, and I will take the link down.

Road Bike Frames, Wheels & Components / Transferring Components from a Damaged Giant Defy 1 to a New Frame
« Last post by alfiomotrambo on Today at 04:23:21 AM »
Hi everyone,

Nice to meet you, this is my first post after reading many on this forum. I'm seeking advice from more experienced members regarding my situation. I have a 2018 Giant Defy 1 with a damaged frame that cannot be repaired. I'm considering removing all the components and transferring them to a new frame.

Currently, my bike is equipped with a Shimano 105 R7000 groupset with hydraulic brakes and Fulcrum wheels. Do you think it's feasible to transfer all the components to a new frame? Has anyone had similar experiences?

I am considering either an ICAN A22 (I love the black color) or an ELVES Avari Pro. The ELVES is UCI approved, unlike the ICAN.

Thank you for all your help. :D

Yeah, I guess the metal bits do look extremely similar. The shaping of the carbon doesn't though. The Passquest seems to have much flatter faces with more rounded edges.

Road Bike Frames, Wheels & Components / Re: WheelTop EDS TX Full Wireless Groupset (Chinese SRAM)
« Last post by kbernstein on Today at 02:13:29 AM »
Read somewhere else that SRAM lost their lawsuit against wheeltop and had some patents invalidated in china, meaning all chinese groupsets can be fully wireless from now on
Not sure how trustworthy that is until a local or insider confirms but this seems huge
