Re: Looking for an aluminium Gravelframe

A few stores have the seaboard with free shipping. $302 shipped is not a bad deal.

That's the cheapest I've seen, but that store only has a 92% rating. Not sure how much of a risk ordering from them would be.

Re: My TanTan TT912 build my thin spacers arrived on Friday.
the original 2x 0.3mm wasnt enough, so i tried 1mm. it seemed to do the trick. i also solved my bta cage rubbing the arm cup by using 7mm washers to raise the bottle cage. Also changed the saddle again, this time using shortnose Racework(bontrager aeolus). Nose shorter n lil wider than the Giant Approach.

today for the 1st time this year i went to the coastal road(theres 8km stretch) to test the speed.
the bike is so stiff, but crazy fast. i could ave 39kmh solo 16km loop without hitting max hr. my cycling fitness is subpar coming after fasting month, but i beat my TCR pb by a whole minute.

with this my bike is funtionally complete n ready for race. yey

just to share, i managed to get my SS RD to work with 11-34 casette by having that chain long. its for just in case i need climbing gear on some race course. for now im mostly on 15-17cog on 11-28

Re: Travel 120mm Carbon Hardtail Frame What is the timeline on this? This is similar to what I am looking for.

i am in contact with the manufacturer but they seem not to be willing to include some threads for bento and or rear boxes....this is really a shame, as we would like to use this as a base frame to work with for our rockairlabs btas, risers we sell for canyon tts...
so our intention is to have a fully equipped tt with all boxes and custom made cockpits...
but the salesperson told me, no cannot do it, not safe?
well, it is always the same with the chinese sellers, they are 95 % there, but keep ignoring suggestion for making the product 100 % perfect and increasing sales..

im not really sure the history of this tt912/tt915 open mould frame and its manufacturer. tt912 has been out for so long since rim brake ver, and later got revised for disc brakes, udh hanger n 32mm clearance.
it seems to me like TanTan and mira-factory might be 2 different factory?

this yr tantan released tt913, while mira(with brand Falco) released 918.

Re: Winowsports TT-119 - New Disc Time Trial Frameset I recently ordered one of these frames. I've just had confirmation the paint job is done so it should be sent out shortly! I'll report back once I get it to see if I have any of the same issues as the others in this thread.

For the bike setup I've mostly gone with Shimano 105 mechanical with Onirii BR-05 brakes. Once it's built I'll throw out a list of parts and the total price.

Re: 1 x 12 Sram TT Setup I've gone down this route for my VB TT-23 build (not built just yet). Gone with:

SRAM Force Rear Mech (36tooth max)
11-34 Shimano Cassette
Dura Ace Crankset w/ 56t Pass Quest 1x Chainring
RideRever Trivia Hydraulic TT Brakes
2 sets of 2 AXS Wireless Blips (1 set on Bar Ends and 1 on the Brake Levers)

Most of the TTing and Tri's I do are flat-ish or enough to get by on a 1x chainring. When I need to I will simple buy a SRAM Red FD and double chainring. Went for the Dura Ace Crankset because its quite light. Hoping its all compatible...

Any suggestions welcome (regarding crank-chainring setups from China)

Btw, i just realized there's an adaptor on Alix from the cannondale looking spindle / ring interface (used by Racework and Riro for eg) to 110 BCD 5 arms like Shimano, which means you can then put any ring you want, single or double.

The attached shows the "native" rings that fit on that spindle interface (50/34, 52/36, 53/39). But there's an adaptor to allow to run 110 BCD 5 arm rings (12 eur). That way you can run 55T or whatever setup you want. I may do that next year to run 52-34, for eg, on my road bike as I like being able to stay in Z2 up climbs but i actively dislike a 50T big ring.
