Road Bike Frames, Wheels & Components / Re: TanTan FM301

Thank you for the answers and ride review!

When you say about grommet missing for the front brake, do you mean the spot where front brake hose comes out from the inside of the front fork leg? To me, usually there is nothing there, just a raw cutout...

As far as changing seatpost - do you know of any compatible alternatives?

Can you tell me the handlebar's model number they are shipping the frame with? Is it HB010 or HB015?

Did you get the downtube storage pouch/sock with the delivery?

Thanks.

Thank you!

I assume you don't have problems with to long a rear axle, nor you have any rubbing of the headset cover against top of the head tube?

What is your feeling about the latching mechanism of the downtube compartment cover?

I know this is a lot of questions... but I have more!

Did the frame came with the rubber grommets (?) for the RD/FD cables coming from inside the frame?

Can you elaborate more on how you have overcame the "too little" clearance for the chainset? Rotor gravel axle and what spacers? What T47BB did you use?

Thanks.

Hi, did you get all the small pieces needed with the frame? People buying the sister frame, longteng rd301-d, where missing the seatpost wedge and cover... They also had problems with rear thru axle play (to long axle) and unsecure latach mechanism for closing the downtube storage compartment. Was the sock for the compartment included?

Could you tell us where you bought the frame and how much was it? What is the frame's size by the way?

Thanks in advance for any info.

I have ordered from Tantan but have not received the frame yet.
Super. Let us know when it arrives if I may ask.

How are your builds guys? Any new observations? That picture od the inside of bb area got me concerned... Did anybody got hold of the TanTan (Seraph) variety? How is the storage compartment cover? This is one of the highlights of the frame, making it na alternative to Trek Domane, Argon 18 Krypton, BMC Roadmachine or even Enve Fray.

Road Bike Frames, Wheels & Components / Help finding endurance frame with top tube mounts and threaded BB
« on: January 03, 2025, 11:59:47 AM »
Hi,

I was thinking that I could get some help here with finding an endurance/allroad carbon frame.

I am 183cm tall and expect around 560mm top tube length, as well as around 575mm of stack and 380mm of reach.
 
I am interested in a frame that would have a wheelbase of up to 1000mm and space for 35mm tires

I would like the frame to have:
- BSA or T47 threaded bottom bracket,
- top tube mounting points for a bag/bento box.

I have been eyeing two frames/bikes so far:
- Argon 18 Krypton (ticks both "boxes"),
- BMC Roadmachine (PressFit - unfortunatelly)
- Fuji Kasane (ticks both "boxes", but strange geometry as far as Standover height for example).

I would be ok with some dependable chinese oems - but it seems that I cannot find anything other then gravel frames, as far as top tube mounting points.

Thanks in advance for your help.
