There was an earlier thread about it, but I don't think anyone has gotten their hands on one...at least on this forum:

https://chinertown.com/index.php/topic,4731.msg55518.html (https://chinertown.com/index.php/topic,4731.msg55518.html)

Specs and price seems in-line with the SPCycle SP-R065, though the BXT comes with free shipping:

Geo is totally different between the two though.  For me, the geo on the SP is much better.

In terms of weight, T47 BB and 32c tire clearance they're similar. I'm not too picky on geometry, I can adapt to most frames in my size range.

Hi, thanks for the reply!

The SP cycle Is completely another frame.
It look like a Canyon Aeroad.

The BXT Is a mix of a Trek and a Look...

Funny enough I am considering both (SP and BXT) base on weight, t47, 32c and low price

Finally i decided to go for the Tideace cr0068 which looks like a more thoughtful frame design. Have a look it looks amazing

Are you joking or serious?

Please explain, joking or serious?

I liked the design much better and it has the same geometry as the new canyon ultimate/aeroad

Someone built the BXT 145. Weight and build issues in the YT comments (will need to translate).

I recommend you add markers to your video!  ;)

So what's your thoughts on the frame and what was the total weight of your build?

I have built Bxt 145 recently. Bought it on Ali. Size 58. Pretty heavy, but I really like the looks. Frame, bottom bracket, rear through axle, UDH, front derailleur mount bracket weighs 1,500 grams.

Looks great Adrian - would you mind letting me know your own dimesions(!) - height, etc - looking at a 58 and wondering how it sizes up in practice.

8,9kg - Sora groupset, Tanke semi-hydraulic brakes (heavy, but have strong stopping power), one bottle cage

Looks great Adrian - would you mind letting me know your own dimesions(!) - height, etc - looking at a 58 and wondering how it sizes up in practice.

188cm, 89cm inseam. Was riding Triban RC500 XL size before. Both bikes are on bikeinsights.com so it was easy to compare geometry of those bikes.

Hi there, from my side I did not recommend this frame. I had problems with slack on headset (too short bearrings). You are not able to proper mount front derailleur mechanic ultegra r8000 because it's rubbing against own cable armor and can not change for little gear  :'( . cracking carbon around saddle post. There is no EPS moulding and from I read on forum there are better frames in that price.

Can you post some pictures of your issues? How bad is that seatpost crack?
