Hi Everyone!


After a summer of enjoying my bike, it is time to sell it to purchase a time trial bike!

The frame is the the Longteng LTK-268D. Some say they are the OEM for velobuild. I cannot confirm! I know they used to be the OEM for Wiggle.

The LTK-268D is the same frame as the Velobuild 099. The color is glossy chameleon. It looks blue or purple

Size: 56


Wheels : Elite Wheels ENT Disc 60mm depth

Tires : Continental Gp5000 25mm

Saddle : Selle Italia Boost SLR

Handlebars: 380x90mm. I also have a set of 400x100 included for free.

Groupset: Sensah Empire 11 speed with 170mm cranks.

Power meter: Sigeyi axo power meter

Brakes : JUIN TECH F1 brakes 160mm

11-28 casette


The bike is currently built with the cables routed externally through the spacers. This allows you to change handlebars easily. To achieve this, I had to cut the spacers, as instructed by another forum member. I will also include a set of uncut spacers if you decide to route the cables inside the handlebars to achieve the clean look.

I also have an extra rear derailleur hanger.


The entire build was 4000$ CAD / 3000$ USD in November 2021.

The bike was used 70% on Zwift, 30% outdoors in 2022. A few scratches here and there. Nothing you can really spot unless you are really looking.

I am willing to sell it for 1300USD + shipping from Montreal,Canada. price is negotiable


 

Hi Everyone,


After spending weeks reading every forum about building a Chinese carbon bike, I pulled the trigger on the LTK 268-D

http://www.ltbikes.com/product/93.html


From what I’ve read, this bike is the same as the Velo build vb-r 099/168.

Also, I’ve been told Longteng is the same company as Seraph And Tantan.

I ordered the LTK 268 in their glossy Blue chameleon color.
 



The color looks more purple in person while it was supposed to be blue.

 The paint is not what I expected, but spectacular nonetheless.



The bike was built with

Wheels: Elite Wheels ENT disc 60mm depth. These hubs are comically loud.

The total cost was approx. 3600$ CAD including duties.

The bike weighs around 17lbs.

Here comes the issues.

1 - Elite wheels sent my wheels without the dust cap on the drive side of the rear wheel, then tried to charge me for a replacement one.
My LBS had a spare.

I haven’t tried the frame on the road yet. I rode a few minutes around the parking lot. We have snow in the northeast.

I hope this can help someone out.

If you are in quebec, canada, i can refer you to a great bike shop. PM for details.

TIP HIM WELL!

Hi,

Has anyone seen an open mold carbon bike that has a similar frame to the Trek Madone?
