Road Bike Frames, Wheels & Components / Re: Thoughts on Carbon Bike Kits?
« on: March 25, 2025, 05:09:38 AM »
I bought a disc wheel from them and hadn't had any issues with it (not a big mileage wheel of course). My former team mate has bought from them and to my knowledge has not had any problems either.

Best pic I have of it at the moment. Will post pic of bike with it on when I get round to taking it. GP5000 S TR installed very easy on both Tri Spoke and Disc wheel.

I also asked in the other thread about the frame/bike, but will ask here as well if you have widths for the trispoke (inner, outer, max)? :)

Also, is there a direction of the spokes? It looks like they're oriented the wrong way, but hard to tell for sure on the picture.

Looks like a nice setup. I can see you have the new(ish) 65mm AliE trispoke. I haven't been able to finde any specs on it. Do you know the inner, outer and max width? It looks pretty good.

Oh, and remove the front valve cap, its only use is for tube storage and transportation purposes ;p

WINOWCYCLE stores in European countries are temporarily unavailable for purchase. You can purchase at FINTOWON BIKE Store.

Hi Kitty,

What's the difference between mechanical and non-mechanical versions? Is there a downside to the mechanical version of you're not planning on running mechanical gears?

Also, just to confirm, no plans on a version in size S? Could separate you from the original FastTT one to have that ;)

Ican has a pretty nice looking new TT frame set you might also consider. Not sure if it's for sale yet, though.

I bought a TT disc rear from them earlier this year. It has been been fine, but of course is not a wheel that's being used that much.

I bought from them after checking with a former team mate that had bought a wheel set from them which he said has been fine.

Thanks for that, very appreciated :)

Unfortunately that seems a too long for me by ~5 cm. Crossing fingers you might make a shorter version one day ;)

They look interesting!

I can't quite get the measurements provided to line up with the actual pictures. Is it possible to maybe get some pictures where it's measured with a ruler or similar on the picture? Especially the length from back to tip (without the round part) and the width of the arm rests would be nice to get confirmed like that if possible. See picture for the two measurements.

Thanks in advance for any help.

The UCI approval only covers that the bikes respects the measurements laid out by the UCI regulations. There's no safety testing involved. Costs starts at 5000 CHF I believe. The entire protocol including prices are here:

Road Bike Frames, Wheels & Components / Re: Super wide aero rims like ZIPP 303 XPLRs?
« on: October 10, 2024, 06:08:23 AM »
I only have a TT disc wheel from them and it's been fine (very light, rides fine, quality seems good), though obviously hasn't ridden it as much as you would with a more standard wheel. A former team mate has gotten some wheels from there and says they've been fine.

Don't know who's behind the site, but I think most or all designs are open mould so I expect the same designs will show up in other places.

Agree completely, I try to preach this, but seem to be mostly ignored on forums. For some reason people are obsessed with internal width, as if you can't run bigger tyres on narrower internal rims.

It's a big boon in all aspects of aero performance, and gives you more freedom in tyre choice. Western companies do seem to be aware of this, though to varying degrees. Obviously roval as you said, hunt went in a very similar direction and the new newmen rims aren't quite on the same level but still a decent bit of difference. I'm really curious for any new swiss side rim designs. Their current ones are ancient.

This might be close to what you're after :)

I contacted them through Whatsapp and they gave me a big list with this included.

I mailed them about the 58x28/34 rims a few months ago and they said they didn't have them and would remove them from the web site. They still seem to be there last I checked, though. I would be interested if they do actually have them.

I would be interested to hear wheel and tyre clearance. Is it possible to measure inside width at fork, seat stays and chain stays around where the tyre sits as well as ~30-40mm further towards hub (around to where the widest point of the rim would often be)?
