Hi all.
As my giant propel was damaged in a crash i am looking for a new frame to do road races here Denmark.
While my broken collarbone is healing. I am considering doing a build with the new 13 speed RED XPLR RD.
Although I find it hard to find an aero and light chinese frame with UDH.
The SC-R55D from speeder seems like the perfect frame, but the current lead time in sizw 58 is 50 days and that is too late for me as i need to start training again soon.
Are you lovely guys aware of any other frame like the SC-R55D with UDH?
If not I might ending up buying a T15500 2ndgen of Tavelo Arrow and skip my 13-speed dream :)

The new Longteng RD301-D frame seems to be UDH as well. Maybe not as light as the Speeder tho

Have looked on it but not enough of a racer with the bolts on the top tube, storage box and 38mm tire clearance
-
Agreed.
Then maybe the Winowsports WR054? Its a heavy chonker but more race-ish and aero.

You are racing in Denmark, why does it need to be light?

Well. If you can find a light option, then why not? 8)
But I know what you mean and I agree.

Is Principia still in business so you can represent? Loved their aluminum frames in the 90s.

Yes In fact the seat post does not look good but from the bottom bracket to the front I like it a lot.
I need to order a new frame and I'm currently undecided between this one, SpcycleSP-R065 and Hygge Model S

They sure are!
As a Dane I’m a bit afraid to admit I have never tried one though.. :-X

At the international courier meet ups, everyone wanted to trade for De Gronne Bode (spelling/grammar?) Copenhagen neon green Tuborg jerseys.
ETA checked out Principia's website-their carbon frames seem to be a decade or so behind current trends.

The build will be with SRAM RED E1 and Nextie ARX60

Close! “De grønne bude”. I forgot about those :o
Seems right. I have not seen a person under 50 on a Principia. The only danish bike brand you see a bit on the road here, is Pronghorn and that is just a Winspace frame.

Adapt just dropped this on their FB stories 3 hours ago...
UDH
EDIT: Oh...Adapt has been teasing us with this frame for months now.

I assume this is their "new design coming"?

Isn't this Speeder SC-R55D?
-
that one is pretty clearly not the speederr, looks similar to tavelo arrow, they will also have the speeder
-
adapt does not do b2c, right?

Last time i contacted them, they asked me for my business name and how many frames i need, so i guess no b2c

On the more detailed inspect it seems like another frame, you are right. They are similar, but I like it more then SC-R55. Do they have any information yet?

Perhaps we could see the new SC around the same time...

That is a big assumption. I've been asked some version of that question, and when i explain that i represent friends and often order multiple frames, people talk to me. Ultimately, as long as you pay, afaik, they dont care, a swift wire is a swift wire.
They MIGHT have a MOQ, but you wont know unless you ask, and from experience, it's so easy for them to ship a box, and they dont fit several frames in one box anyway, so whether you buy 1 or 5, the price is usually the same. And while they'd rather sell 5 frames, they could still want to close a sale for 1.
