Road Bike Frames, Wheels & Components / Re: Speeder SC-R52D

Still happy with this frameset ! I think it is a good allrounder frame for fast group riding, solo endurance rides, and climbs.
I noticed with my narrow bar (36 cm) that going from a 90 mm to a 100 mm stem improved the handling when I am out of the saddle.
My main regret is the tight tyre clearance at the back.
edit : another regret is the bb86 standard, not really convenient with axs groupset : there is not a lot of option of threaded together bottom bracket for this combination

Thanks for your posts on this thread, I recently ordered this frameset at size 48.5, with clear coat UD gloss finish.
I do not have any experience ordering framesets from chinese shops/factories, but overall I am happy with the communication with Speeder cycling and the frameset itself.
It took 35 days from my paypal payment to the day where I received the frameset, which was less than I expected

I built the bike with parts from another frame that could not accept a front derailleur.



Michelin Power CUP TLR and Conti GP5000 S TR, both in 30 mm and installed on light bicycle WR45 rims, fit fine regarding tyre clearance. I might be able to fit 32 mm tires but I think that would be the maximum size.

I can confirm that the weight of the frame only (with hanger and cage mounts) was 906 g.
I did not order the integrated handlebar since I ride with clip-on bars mounted on a standard handlebar, but the top cover provided was not adapted to a standard stem. Eventually I fitted a FSA SRS headset, which look not as bad as I expected, as long as there is no spacer between the top cover and the stem

I was wondering if someone could recommend a rear derailleur hanger that could fit the frame ? I already bent one hanger following a minor crash. I had ordered two extra hangers, but I would appreciate having the possibility to find hangers without ordering at speeder cycling, if one day the shop disappears...

thanks for your inputs electrolux and carbonazza, actually the noise came from the nds crank arm, the 8 mm bolt was loosening itself during rides, especially when I was out of the saddle. I had to re-tighten it regularly on the fly during a bikepacking trip.
When tightened, the crankset did not spin freely but I do not know the source of the issue. I did not want to carefully investigated this, and replaced the ztto bb by a token ninja lite, and now I think this is working properly.

Hi,
I have installed a ztto BB86 threaded BB on my new frame (Speeder Cycling SC 52D), but after a few rides the bb is creaking  :(
Any of you experienced this and found a solution ?

I have the ceramic version, and the crankset is a Red AXS GXP. I just threaded the cups and installed the GXP adapter for the non-drive side.
On the Token Ninja I think a wavy washer is required on the drive side, but ztto dot not provide this washer so I thought it was not necessary ?
