Longteng LTK 268-D Frame / velobuild 099
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. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000033583741.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.27424c4duPm21v Yoeleo H9 CARBON ROAD BIKE INTEGRATED HANDLEBAR (VERSION 2) : https://www.yoeleobike.com/products/h9-carbon-road-bike-integrated-handlebar Groupset: Sensah Empire 2x11. Purchased on eBay from 318store. He also has a aliexpress shop; Sigeyi spider power meter from eBay. GP 5000 tires JUIN TECH F1 brakes KMC x11 chain Jagwire compressionless cables SL7 Seatpost cover : https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005002182490794.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.b6bb4c4dPm3iS5 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! December 07, 2021, 02:32:58 PM |

Re: Velobuild VB-R-177
Take the smaller frame. Its impossible to make a larger bine fit smaller. You can always get a longer stem.

Re: Velobuild VB-R-177
If you have not had a bike fit, take the 54. You can always ride a bike that's too small. A bike that's too big will have too much reach. It will be uncomfortable andbmost likely cause pain.take the 54.

The matte blue chameleon is just as nice!

Re: Speeder SC-R48
I exchanges emails with Longteng bikes about their superlight LTK036. The weight of size 50cm is 780+/-30g in carbon finish . And each larger size will be about 30g heavier. The price of the frame is $420 usd/set (Frame+Fork) in carbon clear coat or matte finish . I will add pictures. This is the weight for a size 55.
