Re: Welcome to Chinertown - Introduce Yourself!
Hi folks, my name is Eike (just don't try to pronounce that^^) and i am from Germany. I am riding an IP-256 SL Hardtail so far and i am thinking about adding a full suspension Bike for trail rides. Looking for a ~130 mm frame from china is frustrating at this point, maybe something happens until next spring... August 20, 2020, 12:45:39 AM |

Re: Welcome to Chinertown - Introduce Yourself!
I'm Andreas, 29, from Germany. I bought myself a 2-speed SRAM Automatix "Singlespeed" 4 years or so ago, which unfortunately was stolen last year. This spring I got a mid 90s Batavus Carbon Composite Roadbike in a swap deal, which brought me more into serious cycling. But the urge for an upgrade came up, and so I came across chinese carbon. And now I'm building a Dengfu R12 Roadbike and an OG-Evkin CF-052 Hardtail. December 05, 2020, 06:56:22 AM |

Re: Welcome to Chinertown - Introduce Yourself!
Hello all, First post here - I'm Jeroen, currently living in Germany but originally from the Netherlands. I'm a roadbike kinda guy, but decided to build up a Chiner fully over the upcoming winter as a successor to my old, faithful Klein Palomino. This will not be my first build, I already own a Lightcarbon LCR004D roadbike (+matching Yishun wheels) and I've been riding and repairing bikes for the last 20 years minimum. Overall, I must say that I'm very happy with Lightcarbon until now - but let's wait for the next project. Last weekend, my Lightcarbon LCFS911 arrived and I'm now searching the net for parts. My first question will be around the ofset/rake you guys used for building, but I'll post that in the LCFS911 thread. After that, I'll be investing some time and money in the paint job for this bike, as I'm a sucker for the old Klein paint jobs. Of course, this doesn't make sense at all - period. But: that's cool with a naked carbon bike, you can make your own dream. Stay healthy! December 08, 2020, 02:20:46 PM |

Airwolf / YFM026 boost / santa cruz highball
Hey, long time lurker, first time poster. I decided to buy a Airwolf SC highball of off aliexpress ($350). I had a lot of parts laying around, like wheels and a drive train, some odds and ends. Wanted to share some photos of the frame as I build it up. Frame weighs 1080 naked, 1144 with axle and seatpost clamp. Finish was overall good except the chip in the head tube, rear axle is funky. The routing was backwards but easy to remedy. I'm shooting for an 8.7kg build with components I have laying around. Ill post more photos and riding experience once its built. https://imgur.com/gallery/SzLf1uu December 10, 2020, 04:45:50 PM |

Re: Airwolf / YFM026 boost / santa cruz highball
Yea I had great contact with the seller from AliExpress, really easy to text exchange. Got a ride in today and it was great. My only other previous hardtail is a niner one 9 rdo. I love having a slacker head tube angle and the frame isn’t as stiff.
