Wondering if you guys have seen frames that look similar in terms of geo as used in the tour, for instance, something that looks like the v3rs, or maybe a focus izalco max, trek emonda/madone.
Also interested in a merida reacto geometry, a supersix/systemsix, willier slr, and factor geometries.
Obviously not going to copy them and have a fake version, but i do like the geometry and curves some of them resemble.

What makes the new geometry?

I mean, the Reacto/SS look like fairly generic nice aero frames with dropped stays. The Emonda/Madone, on the other hand are pretty unique and are yet to have a mass-produced clone. You CAN find V3RS clones on AliExpress but I personally wouldn't feel comfortable with that kind of clone- I'm OK with bike that are essentially just copying a geometry, but when you cross the line to counterfeit it starts to sketch me out.

Yeah im not looking for a clone, but i would like something that looks similar. A good example would be the tarmac and the 168. The 168 is missing that dropped headset area and maybe a few designs but otherwise they are very similar. Im trying to think about what my next build will be. Dont know if i want a full aero, semi aero like the v3rs or a super lightweight one.
