Re: TanTan TT-X21 frame HI All
I ordered a TT-X21 on the 18th November. It was shipped on the 15th December.
I just got a notice that it it is at custom clearance having traveled via train from China.
Nearly there

Re: TanTan TT-X21 frame I decided to be true to the chinese concept and sourced everything from there. The Groupset is Sensah Empire Pro, with the Ztrace 140mm disk brakes. I made a mistake with the Bottom Bracket, I ordered a ZTTO BB86 25mmm and not a 30mm. So I need to get another one. One came with the groupset but it doesnt look great. The wheelset is carbon Elite with 50mm depth rims. Sorry i got the white decals. I forgot to order the Thru axles, so I am scrambling to get them online. There seems to be a global shortage as many people have bought them for indoor trainers.

Looking forward to the build!!

Re: Groupset Stock (or lack of!)
Yeah would be equally interested in hearing opinions on Sensah (currently googling/searching for thoughts already out there) as I'm not completely against going down that route and upgrading other bits (cranks for example) as I go!

I actually think the Empire Pro shifters look better than the Ultegra ones (all subjective I know!)

Hi Mikey,
A big problem I encountered with the Sensah Empire pro is the Bottom bracket for the Zrace crank.
It must be a DUB, the SRAM standard, crank which is 29mm. If you are upgrading you may have to replace the Bottom bracket. From experience I have ordered two incorrect Brackets. Normally the Frame takes a 41mm external measurement Bracket, but the crank can be 24mm, 29mm and 30mm. There is a bit of homework required here. BEWARE!!

I am fitting the Sensah Empire Pro with the Zrace cranksets. The shifters look great in carbon fibre, but the hods are a bit light.

Re: TanTan TT-X21 frame Finally went for a ride on my TT-X21.
Very stiff, very light and quick to pick up speed.
Very light on hills.
ZRace discs are a bit spongy.
Sensah front derailleur is hit and miss.

Re: TanTan TT-X21 frame I finally gave up on the Sensah Empire Pro front derailleur on the TT-X21 and decided to remove the inner cable arrangement and went for a Shimano 105 7000 front Mech. It has an option to thread the outer housing to the derailleur. Two good features include the cable tensioning screw and anchor screw to the derailleur hanger. I found a fitting that allows the housing to leave the frame. As this is just in front of the wheel and will allow water into the frame, I plan to seal it with Silicone.
