Speeder SC-R48

[bamboo_mountain]

Has anyone ordered one of these: https://www.speedercycling.com/Carbon-Road-Disc-Frameset-SC-R48D-_p346.html
in either the rim (SC-R48V) or disc (SC-R48D) options? It looks like it might be a good "Aethos" type frame. Similar to Winspace SLC.

[StiffWeenies]

Apparently it is the SLC 2.0

The only other Aethos type frame I can think of is the Workswell WCB-R-366

I sent an inquiry to receive more information on this frame.

Its not the slc, geos a tad off.

But beautiful frame, very light and looks almost exactly like the slc.

Has anyone bought from these guys? Im actually interested in them now.

I gotta be honest...I am quite intrigued by their Carbon Road Disc Frameset (SC-R49D)

Of all the road bikes I've built and reviewed, that frame seems to have the most aggressive geometry I've ever seen. And that makes me exceptionally happy.

Size: 500
Reach: 397
Stack: 544

And add to fact they have a size 410mm/125mm integrated handlebar.....sheesh! Wonder how much their frameset and handlebar costs with shipping. Keep us informed!

Speaking of SLC, this frame looks a lot like Winspace's T1500.

You're right! Same thing for their Super Light Pattern Carbon Spoke wheels. The depths and external/internal widths are off but everything else seems very similar. I guess Winspace has mould exclusivity in terms of sizing but the core design/construction tech is shared?

The Speeder integrated cockpit seems to be different from the Winspace Zero integrated cockpit that's paired with the T1500. The SC-R49D frame itself seems to be very similar to but not exactly the same as the T1500 Disc. It's confusing because wasn't Winspace supposed to be the in-house brand of Gotobike, who are themselves a factory? The Winspace SLC 2.0 used to be called the Gotobike B40 while the T1500 was known as the Gotobike WS15 so I'm curious to see where exactly Speeder lies in the Gotobike-Winspace relationship.

Justin from speeder sent me a quote for the 45 with in house hubs, carbon spokes. $760, 140 shipping  $43 pp fee.

Decent price considering the weight but im hesitant given its a new company on the market and while its a good price considering, it is a bit expensive in the realm of chinese wheels.

It looks like their aero frame is a pinarello copycat.

Ironically that is almost Winspace Hyper wheel money.

Their wheels also intrigue me:

21mm internal
28mm external
Filament wound (not sure if this standard across all wheel makers, but Winspace uses this process)

I wonder how much a pair of 67mm deep wheels with DT240 hubs would cost...

EDIT: Spoke to their sales team

$918 USD per set
$150 for shipping
$50 PayPal Fee

I would probably rather go through Light Bicycle or Yoeleo at that price point.

[Irideslowly]

At that price point, might as well go for a bigger brand like yoeleo, farsports or light bicycle.

Ouch! I guess they're a better buy if you choose the carbon spoke option using their own hubs?

LoL can we just take a moment to admire and applaud all the options we currently have in 2022 from these Far East factories?

How long do you think we will see this trend until the Chinese bike market bubble pops? Or when they start charging big name prices haha?

This for the SC-R48D? Different geometry aside, the SLC 2.0 Disc costs 1580 USD...

The quotes are kind of all over the place though. One guy said 675 USD for a SC-R48V while another guy is asking 550 USD for his barely used second hand SC-R48D.

Regardless, I'm just drooling at the prospect of a SC-R48V build with an unbranded black direct mount set of those fake eeBrakes.
