Re: Yishunbike G095D (Speed Gravel)

i think is the same frame that Guerciotti use for its Escape model.




https://www.guerciotti.it/bici/gravel/escape/

I've been eyeing the G095D for a while now because of the stated 50c tire clearance but according to Guerciotti it only acccepts up to 42c which seems a pitty or the models are not exactly the same.  If anyone decides to order one, it would be awesome if they could check the tire clearance.

Yishunbike also sells a more all road version which has smaller tire clearance and without bike rack mounts.  https://www.yishunbike.com/product/cx095dall-road/.

Re: FRAME VAN RYSEL RCR 2023 https://www.bikeradar.com/news/sea-otter-2023-van-rysel-road-gravel-bikes/

Quote
The RCR is Van Rysel’s new aero road bike, designed, according to Lazarus, in-house by the brand in conjunction with Onera, a French aerospace company.

i'm pretty sure you wont find the van rysel rcr anywhere else then in decathlon. It seems it is developed especially for them and they probably own the rights to the design (and might even own the manufacturer). So even if you'll find one it's probably a replica (which is always shady). They seem very serious about their new models since allegedly AG2R-La Mondiale will ride on it next year in the world tour.

You probably can't find the frame since it hasn't been for sale yet. Should go on sale somewhere now (end of june).

Re: Which frame could it be? BALDISO Air Flight One It looks a lot like the Workswell WCB-R-306

Especially with the angular top bit of the seatstays.

Insanly good looking frame and very light according to the workswell website.

Re: Alternative for blipbox Hi, so actually if you like thinkering you can modify some sram wireless blips which you can usually find for under 100$.
https://www.sram.com/en/sram/models/ec-blip-b1.

This Instagram video shows how you can add some custom buttons (zirbel in this case) to them https://www.instagram.com/reel/C4EF0wDsmHf/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link

edit: i did a little more digging and if you have no other shifter connected the blips might not work (sram prevents you from only paring blips with a rear derailleur without any shifter). An alternative is to connect the internals of a eagle axs shifter (https://www.bike-components.de/en/SRAM/GX-Eagle-AXS-Controller-12-speed-Shifter-p81643/) to your preffered buttons.
There are some videos about that.  ([www.youtube.com/watch?v=mfr1iRHcvNM])

I'm curious what you are trying to add (always cool to see people add custom shifters).

Hope this gives some inspiration

Re: Alternative for blipbox Thanks!!.

But i have to update the info above as sram seamingly did the unthinkable and just enabled the sram blips to function as a standalone shifter.

https://bikerumor.com/sram-wireless-blips-can-now-be-paired-w-o-shifters/

It enables some serious potential as the circuit boards are really small.

Workswell new website (and goodiess!!) Hey,

Just saw on their socials that workswell uploaded their new website.

http://www.workswellbikes.com/

seems like they also got quite a few new/unknown frames.

And it seems like you can check whether they can sell the frame to you based on your country (some of they're frames are monopolized by boutique brands in some countries).

Re: Alternative for blipbox They are powered by coin cells so if your goal is to attach a different button to them(like in the instagram post i shared in my first reply) you can definitly replace them. It's just a neat solution for the tinkerers who might be looking for something non existent.

next to that they should last 2 years on a single battery which means that when you compare it to the price of a blip box (400 dollar) you can get 4 paires of them or 8 years.

I must admit that they aren't worth it as they come (if you are thinking of running as auxiliary shifters) but when you are looking to open them up and thinker around with them they are quite the bargain.
I've seen people hacking sram brakes with di2 electronics but with these you could get yourself some di2 shifters (if you don't like DOT brake fluid for example or want rim brakes) and connect them to the internals electronics of the blips and you can connect any sram axs shifter there is.
