It would be nice if has additional cage mounting points at the bottom of the downtube.

Yes, we will add bottle cage mounting points to the down tube. thank you

Adding an option for external cabling (going in the down tube instead of through stem) would make other handlebars useful.

Full hidden cable design is the trend, this frame only supports all internal cables. thank you

I’m glad the T47 BB is finally adopted! Still the geometry is not racy enough for me.. really good looking frame though.

SP-G056 is a light, reactive, and easy-to-handle bike with racing-comfort geometries, and able to adapt to the multiple uses required of a gravel bike.
the geometries that allow a high level of comfort, without sacrificing reactivity and performance. The head tube, with a more open angle, ensures riding quality and stability also on the most difficult tracks. On the other hand, the rear triangle was designed to have a more distinct response to vertical stress, absorbing thus great part of the vibrations generated by the ground imperfections.

I’m sure its a great bike! Although im looking for a lower stack and a shorter chainstay.

Hi there, I'm interested in this frame too. Does this price include the handlebars?
-

Would strongly agree with having an option for external cable routing. Even just having the simple plate cover /Di2 port / cable port option present on other frames would be a big benefit for me. I've personally turned down many frames due to being forced to go full internal.
I mean, how hard can it be? Just cut a few holes, mount a few cable ports, and you've suddenly greatly increased your market size :) eg. the Carbonda CFR 1056 offers the option to route internal/external, and the last I've heard, everyone's happy with how their cables are run.

We can't cut holes in the frame. But a headset cover is being designed. All cables will enter the frame from the holes in the headset cover.

Dear All:
Have a nice day.
The G056 Carbon gravel bike frame has been mass-produced and sold on AliExpress. Anyone who is interested can view the frame and order via the following link.

Opening holes in the frame down tube requires modifying the frame mold. This is cumbersome. We designed this headset cover. So the frame can achieve semi-internal cable routing.

Don't you think water will enter very easily and rust prematurely the bearings?

Please see the attachment. thank you

Please see the attachment. thank you
Thank you for the pictures. The compression ring (C-ring) that sits on top of the bearing seems to have larger than necessary cutout for cables - any issues with headset play when braking or hitting a pothole? The dustcap looks good though.
-
I couldn't find your aliexpress link. May I know your wechat contact?
-
Are any of you using these frame? I'd like to build a rig for gravel / unsupported bikepacking trip and this frame is one of the candidate.
-
I just ordered one for my next gravel project.......now just need to wait....patiently.
-
Looks identical to the Velobuild GF-003 / TanTan Seraph GR-047, and also seems to be "inspired by" the Wilier Jena (geometry is the exact same).
Although confusingly, Velobuild says T800 carbon, whereas this and TanTan say T1000 carbon.
Only noticed as I've been considering the GF-003 for a few weeks now, mostly for endurance road / light gravel, though I haven't worked up to pulling the trigger yet.
On Velobuild's Instagram, they have one picture of someone who built out a GF-003: https://www.instagram.com/p/Co-4Q9sOG-d/
-
Yes also stumble with the Willier Jena. Only the seat tube entrance on the frame is more "aero"|modern looking (for my taste at least) on the G056, the front derailleur hanger and the fact it has no side holes for cables as Jena is not Inside Cables only.
But the rest is dead on :) I really like the frame look. After my paintjob hopefully will like it even more :D

That C-ring will cause you trouble. It too open and too stiff. You will have a bad time, guaranteed. It'll never feel tight, and it will start to creek.
Please offer a better solution SP Cycle.
-
already received my frame and its flawless .... bought on 3rd of May, arrived the 26th May to Portugal.....it will take a long time to build though. will start first with the custom paintjob.

OK, so this is true. I have the Velobuild GF-003 (very similar I guess) and it is impossible to tighten the headset because there is too much room between the C-ring and the fork steerer tube... Could also be that the C-ring is too open. There is also significant amount of space between the c-ring and the headset cover:
(https://ae01.alicdn.com/kf/Sdcda78a107524a69bb664c9b9f676cb3J.jpg)
What's the solution to this problem? There remains a very small amount of play while using the front brake. :( There are some very thin spacers left over, but I can't see how they would solve this problem.
UPDATE: I bought the DEDA Nylon 270 degree compression ring. Hope this can solve the issue. Should I make this ring thinner?
-
OK, so I fixed the situation pretty easily. I bought the Deda compression ring 45 degrees:
(https://www.tradeinn.com/f/13824/138244301/deda-compressie-ring-voor-dcr-systeem.jpg)
First I sawed the largest part of the top (circa 2mm I guess) with a hacksaw and then I ground the top down a smal bit at a time with a Dremel tool till it was at the correct height to compress correctly but also not leave a gap between the frame and the headset cover (there is still a very minimal gap say 0,5mm). I also used a Deda 70mm expander plug to get a bit more grip while tightening the top cap. No play anymore and a very cheap solution.
-
Has anyone successfully build up the Velobuild GF003? I received mine last month, however the LBS indicated there's an obstruction inside the frame preventing the internal cable housing to get thru, I've no other details other than what they said.

So you basically had to remove two mm from the upper side so that the spacers can lie flat? I am trying to imagine what you have done, as after building up mine I think the fork still has some play. Attached a picture of my build!
Also, I think I have mounted too many spacers, but I do not want to remove the cables from the handlebar (what a pain!). I assume spacers like this would work?

-
I just finished building up this frame and feel I should add my experience with this headset. I experienced the loose headset/steerer tube problem and was going to order the Deda compression ring as described in this thread but I found my problem was user error. I’d never set up a carbon steerer tube before and didn’t realize fork compression plug is inserted and tightened separately and before the headset preload is tightened. Once I tightened that up properly I no longer have any headset play. I bought the frame from Spcycle and had a good experience, frame arrived painted and packaged very well and was on time.
-
I bought this frame, but with another brand called Ceccotti. Although the frame and fork are the same, they use different seatpost, headset and bottom bracket.

-
Let’s us know what it’s like when you get it !
-
Any idea if the max tire spec is accurate? I was hoping to fit some 650x2.2, but feel that might be pushing it.
-
you have about 65-70mm space on the back where the tire goes through...for a 2.2 it should be more or less 55 mm worth of tire ....i think you might be pushing it...
-
Well i've been so excited on the last weeks of riding that i forgot to post some pictures of my completed project......

Congratulations on great and beautiful build! Can You please share what size is it and how tall are you? Also would be nice if you can write how u like it, how fast is it, stiff, comfortable etc. :)

I’m doing a build with this frame and have a possible issue with the T47 BB being very tight. I’ve never worked with this style, so I’m not sure what to expect. It gets hand tight after a couple threads and then really starts to get snug. The threads seem clean and it doesn’t seem to be cross threaded. Both sides are the same. I don’t want to get too rough with it and bind or break something. Any ideas?

I've run into this problem several times. These days, every frame I purchase from Alixpress, I wash out the bottom bracket threads using soapy water and a stiff nylon brush. Then I blow-dry the threads with a compressed air nozzle. All it takes is one small piece of metal in the threads to start the binding/cross-threading of a thread.
I spent about 2 hours one time on a threaded bottom bracket thread with a magnifying glass and a fine metal pick carefully restoring a thread where I had messed up the thread due to a fine metal filing that became embedded in the bottom bracket thread. The filing messed up the crest and was stuck in the thread root.

What is the max size of chainring for 1x drivetrains?
So did u get your answer? I would like to fit 44t chainring with senicx gr2 crankset. You think it will fit?
-
Attached image shows 6mm gap between frame chainstay and 42t chainring. I don’t know if 44 would fit for sure but I suspect it would.
-
I've put down a order on this frame during the 11.11 sales, do any one know if there is a directmount compatible RD-hanger available for this frameset?
-
Took delivery of my frameset today, bought from Ceccotti
Size XL, T-red
On a visual inspection it looks good, good paint job, no loose fibres in headset area and bearing seats looks clean. I'll see how it builds up.
Some weights:
Handlebar: 349gr
Fork:410gr
Seatpost: 196gr
Frame: 1190gr without seatpost hardware
-
Anyone else have any reviews on feedback on this frame or the equivalent? Any headset problems?
The Ceccotti doesn't use the C shape washer from the pictures I have seen in their store?
-
I am wondering why so many of the carbon gravel frames weight over 1KG these days. I don't get excited about a gravel frame unless it weighs less than 1000 grams. Plus, so many forks these days weight over 400 grams.
I like this frame, but is seems so heavy....

They probably don't want to take any risk and just overbuild it...

Many gravel frames are made to handle the higher loads of riding gravel and off-road. Also with mountings for fenders, bags, racks etc. put in to the equation combined with off-road use I think it's kinda fair that they weigh over 1kg theese days. If chasing grams, there are lightweight options like Spec. Crux, 825gr for a painted size 56 but that costs €3500 for a frameset here in Sweden.

If you can find ANY gravel frame of less than 1 kg let me know. I have never seen one from the far east. Even the yoneleo G21 or whatever it is called that premiumly-priced brand weights around 1.3 kg in medium sizes and around 440 g the fork. So they basically weight all more or less the same.
-
I would be worried if I saw a chiner gravel for less than a a KG. They all hover around around the 1.2kg mark probably for good reason
-
I hesitate to call this a 'Chiner' bike since it's a Chinese brand name bike but it's less than 1kg and very lustworthy. I wish someone would come out with an open mold version.

Nice frame, but the stack is so low. It is a pity chinese manufacturers only aim for such low stack bikes nowadays. It really pulls me off the market ...
-
Just based on numbers on the geometry chart alone, I am a huge fan of the Voice Velo. This is another bike I would buy but wont because of overlap and the budget being eaten by custom ti bikes. I also think if the seatpost, routing and stem are nice enough its actually not a terrible price if the quality and the weight specs hold up to the press. The issue is lack of service and brand presence, but UDH and round seatpost take care of a good number of those problems.
Nice frame, but the stack is so low. It is a pity chinese manufacturers only aim for such low stack bikes nowadays. It really pulls me off the market ...
This is pushing me towards Chinese bikes. As a smaller rider I barely fit on most brand's race bikes without needing to size down to the smallest size because the stacks have gotten so tall. On gravel bikes its darn near impossible with most brands. I think there has been an interesting effect with the rise of youtubers and youtube fitters and some of their obsessions with saddle to bar drop at the cost of reduced reach causing people to size down. I see guys over 5'11" to 6ft tall on the same size bikes the pro women are racing on at 5'4" but with a stack of spacers and a 140mm stem. Meanwhile short guys like me needed the -12 degree 110mm stem slammed to fit on the SL7 and it was the only major bike brand bike that I could fit on at a size 52 because it was the only one that regular customers could get the pro level stem for. I ended up going the chinese Ti route in the long term for my road bike instead, but I am in the middle of surveyed proportions for a male of my height with "above average" hip mobility. Nothing crazy just 5'6" / 169cm.
-
Ok, for me it is quite the opposite. I had to go custom because I find the head tube lengths way to small, and I could basically just use the tallest endurance frames (Canyon Endurance CF7, Specialized Roubaix, etc) comfortably. With the tallest chinese ones I have to use like 5cm spacers under my stem, otherwise the saddle-to-handlebar drop quickly goes over 10cm and it is too damn uncomfortable for long routes. My custom has a top tube of 54 cm, but then 175mm head tube and 600mm stack.
175cm tall here, but with 86cm inseam.

Did the direct mount hanger make any difference compared to the normal one?

This is my winter build, we still have +1m of snow and -30C last weekend, a lot warmer 0C this weekend but still a month or two before outdoor season so no testrides yet.
My reasoning is, less joints = better shifting performance.
Probably marginal, and mostly a fixed idea on my part

Hello, I am considering this frame (from Spcycle or Velobuild) and have some question about integrated headset.
In previous messages i've read something about issues on fork due to some compression component on the headset.
if someone has buoght recently this frame, do you had similar issues?
Thanks

I bought mine from ceccotti, no issues with the headset during assembly and everything feels ok on the garage floor, still some (winter) time until I can do a proper shakedown ride.

Are you running electronic or mechanical groupset? Just wondering how it is to run 4 housing through the headtube/headset

I'm running a 11speed di2, so just two hydraulic hoses and a di2 wire through the integrated handlebar and headset. I did a mechanical 105 for a friend on a similar headset/stem, routing and cutting was a PITA and the tight bends affected the shift performance.
Maybe going with external routing on handlebar & headset in combination with the external headset shim/adapter improves routing?
-
Upgraded my wheels, realized I never actually posted pictures of the finished bike. This is with the new /deeper wheels, but I also have a cheaper set of 40mm Elite SLR wheels set up with more of a gravel tire. Well, it's nearly finished, I'm still waiting on new bar tape after pulling off what I used last year.
Absolutely love the green/ purplish chameleon paint job, it was exactly what I had imagined it would be.
Using an Ergon seatpost with a Fizik adaptive saddle, 9velo LV2.0 in 45/55mm, GP5000 STR 30mm, with a knockoff Deda Alanera integrated bar/stem. SRAM Force D1 shifters and D2 derailleurs.

For those who have this frame (from Spcycle, Velobild or others,...) about sizing, I am 170 cm with 80 com insteam and 70 cm of saddle height on my mtb, usually run size M on all my bikes. Should size 54/M of this frame be ok for me?
Thanks
-
I'm 185cm so I can't help you there (chose Large, for what it's worth), but I used the Wiler Jena sizing tool since the frame is pretty much identical.

here is mine in size M with sensah hdr 1x and wheels from peterscycles, soon i will update crankset with lexon carbon and oval chainring
-
Mine just arrived today in Canada, one day short of 2 weeks from order time. Everything looks great apart from having to clean the threads on the BB on the non drive side and pant work looks excellent with no blemishes. FWIW bought the Ceccotti version from a different "store" on ALI (very well reviewed).
I ordered the L size and find its similar to the 56-57 CM bikes I have. It definitly feels smaller then a 58 CM Trek 920 that is my every day bike. The only mistake I made was ordering a handlebar with a too short of stem as I expected the size to be more like my 920.

Everything looks great apart from having to clean the threads on the BB on the non drive side and pant work looks excellent with no blemishes. FWIW bought the Ceccotti version from a different "store" on ALI (very well reviewed).
I ordered the L size and find its similar to the 56-57 CM bikes I have. It definitly feels smaller then a 58 CM Trek 920 that is my every day bike. The only mistake I made was ordering a handlebar with a too short of stem as I expected the size to be more like my 920.
Hello! I'm from Canada as well and quite interested with the same frame!
Can you share the link where you purchased the frameset? TIA!

Finally assembled the bike.
Size L, weight 8.2kg naked, 8.6kg ready to ride
I had a problem with the crankset and bb (token).
The spindle was to short. The solution was to get rid of preload adjuster and just put a spacer. Will probably change the crankset for sram force wide with power meter, as the senicx one has slightly big chainline. Chainring 44t.
- Wheels from yuanan with mana rotors and gravel thundero HD tires.
- Stem deda vinci - 17 with kovcelo 40cm handlebar with little flare.
- Hoods and brakes sram rival.
- Rd sram gx with garbaruk cage from Ali which makes is as light as xx1 version.
- Cassette sram eagle xx1 10-50 and chain also xx1.
- Saddle prologo scratch5 agx.
Bike is very comfortable and stable. Feels very good on descents and single tracks. On other hands feels slower then my previous bike - specialized Diverge e5 comp aluminum. But that one was basically a road plus/endurance bikes. I also had way better shape last year. Will see how much I like this bike inf few weeks.

This is the like to the store. Unfortunately I think I am going to have to get another as I am finding it a bit big. I am 6' tall and bought the large but I am a bit too stretched out for my liking. I did a bit more painting to mine after I got it as well. It is a great riding frame with very few issues in the build up.

Awsome paint job! Can you tell a bit more how did you make it? What was your base color?

The bike was ordered as blue and I taped off sections using fineline and painted with epoxy paint. It looks ok from this distance but no so much close up. I also made a decal with photoshop.
