Road Bike Frames, Wheels & Components / Re: TanTan Seraph TT-X34, FM639 or FM619

Hi there,
After i built a GR029 with my boyfriend a couple of years ago, I am looking at Road Bike Frames this time.

I am wondering if any of you has experiences to share about the TT-X34, FM639 or FM619.

What is important to me?
Disc Brake
Thru Axle
Clearance for decent size of tyres (minimum 28 mm / ideally 32 mm).

Officially the TT-X34 has 30mm, maybe a 32 fits? What I don't like too much is the fully integrated Handlebar (means that you can play only with the spacers) and the specific seatpost.

From a frame design point while I like both, I have a preference for the FM639/FM619 (same geometry only a bit different weight so I don't know what is the difference...).  Anyone has one of these frames?

currently I have the x34, I will measure tomorrow. I also plan on posting a review after I put some miles on it.

No.  Miracle is the ODM / OEM.  Yoeleo is just a brand.

The Miracles are typically old versions of what Yoeleo have now, or heavier layups.  Yoeleo R12 is a lot lighter and allegedly quite noodly.  Miracle R12 is significantly heavier and stiffer (and is identical to the old Yoeleo R12 model).

Thanks for clarifying, i see that, the yoeleo r12 is ~960? And the miraclecycling is like 1060 for the frame.

Its actually weird how a 100g makes ot “noodly” if what people say is correct.

I would like to refresh this entry, is it really true that Miracle-Cycling produces the frames for Yoeleo and that Yoeleo only paints and sells them?

Has anyone already ordered from Miracle-Cycling and how was the experience with the frameset?

Miraclecycling could be a dealer just like yoeleo, but the main point of my post was to acknowledge that yoeleos frames arent proprietary, they just rebrand them.

its similar to the 086 and my issue is geometry, i need 400+ reach and 600+ stack without including spacers, handlebars etc. im 6'7. the yishun bike actually fits my geometry very very well, very comparable to the dengfu r12.

Looking for the next bike build, and this crossed my eye, fits my geometry in a 58. Anyone know what this is meant to be a replica/pay homage to? It looks a hell of a lot like a venge but the geometry doesnt quite equal it.

Road Bike Frames, Wheels & Components / Re: Velobuild 177: Gap between fork and headtube?

While the bikes may not “need” the crown race, some are integrated in the molding process and i never checked the difference on the r12.

The space left is due to it not being cut, the compression cap where you sandwich the cap into the stem joins everything together. My dengfu fm098 had a similar gap issue when it was cut and its because i needed a microspacer on the top.

almost looks like a merida reacto, one difference i can see is that the seatpost/seattube connecting area isnt as fat in the fm339 but has that recessed headset.

1800 yuan is $270, which is insanely freaking cheap, whether or not this makes you second guess safety is subject to your opinion, if you pull the trigger, update, im curious how this'll end out!

yoeleo r12 is a bit expensive, and it might be the dengfu r12, but the dengfu r12 has a misaligned fd hanger. sucks for sram. id have to fully convert to di2 for it to be satisfactory.

fm098 and a handful of other rim brakes ive seen offer bsa. bsa's not that uncommon and i personally prefer it, yes corrosion is an issue but if you take proper care of it shouldnt be an issue with the right stuff added.

i like them for doing something like this but i hate the size variation. anyone over 6'3 is probably going to run into a sizing issue. i know inseam and armspan are factors but theres a good chance they will have a hard time fitting into a 58, unless the person is flexible.
