Re: TanTan TT-X21 frame
@max_the_rider Did you buy this as a complete bike, painted by TanTan? What groupset is on it and can you share how much this cost? Thx much I bought this frame back in 2020 with this custom design, and only the frame from Tantan. I built the bike by myself. About the groupset, it's a full mechanical Ultegra R8000... A real pain in the a** with the handlebar but it works flawlessly! Frame 599$, custom design 70$, thru axle 24$ and shipping fees (to Switzerland) 85$ The current configuration is: TT-X21 size 52 Full mech Ultegra R8000 Magene P505 powermeter with 52/36 Spécialités TA chainrings Prime Primavera 56 wheels Conti GP5000S TR April 03, 2024, 01:42:55 PM |

Re: New Frame Winow Sports WR054
They also have the Hygge Model S frame. My guess would be they make the frames and Hygge is a reseller with better paint jobs.

Re: looking for the best current oem relaxed aero frame: updated LTK268D or VBR099
i have the LT268 (which is an open mould), so i think tantan and others make the same frame, and i'm very happy w it. If i were to buy a frame today though, i'd go w the speeder 55. It's newer, lighter, it looks very nice, and i'd be very curious to see how it rides. That being said, i dont think you can go wrong with either. The 268 is substantially cheaper. If you keep it several years, it shouldn't matter too much, because speeder is still great value, but there is a difference. November 25, 2024, 09:14:11 AM |

Had the same dillema and finally took 268. Few known issues but simply to resolve.

The LTK268 is, both frames i built are very nice inside, unlike the VB i've built (168, GF02, GF03). Although the GF03 may have been, i just dont remember. November 25, 2024, 03:17:46 PM |

tell me if i m wrong, but the best brand/factory in class are based in xiamen . buying elsewhere means taking a risk with high probability. I think that Hygge frame comes from Winow. November 26, 2024, 09:19:21 AM |

Re: Seraph Bikes Superlight 836g X68 - Alternative to SL8 Fakes?
well seen, it seems to be the case , but nobody knows if there is an hole behind the cover Here is a picture of a replica (not Seraph but it is maybe the same mold for all replicas). We can see 3 holes. November 27, 2024, 11:16:56 AM |

Re: looking for the best current oem relaxed aero frame: updated LTK268D or VBR099
I bought ad used VBR099/LTK268D coming from an old rim WinSpace The bike is now reaching 7,5kg and it's very smooth to ride, I'm not a pro and not so flexible but I can ride with nearly zero spacer and -6degree handlebar. It's snappier than my previous bike, significantly faster but confortabile in long climb. It's not a lighweight bike... November 28, 2024, 07:23:24 AM |
