Hey guys 
I was also thinking about buying the 218. But then I ordered the TT x34. So here are some intensions:
1. the buying process and contact to Rose was nice
2. then it took a long time till the frame was produced, painted and sent. excuses like: the painter is on vacation, the shipping agent forgot the package...
3. the painting and everything was fine. I finished the build and after 3 I had a strange feeling with the handlebar width. I measured my handlebar and it was 440/100, but I ordered 400/100. I had a long discussion, because Rose said that I have to pay for the handlebar, but it was the mistake of Tantan. After one week Rose said that's I will get a handlebar, but I have to sell the false handlebar and send her the money. Because 400/100 was not in stock I choose 400/110
4. I also had problems with slipping seat post. I asked Rose she said that the typical torque is 10 Nm and I can go up to 12 Nm.
But all in all im very happy with the bike 
This is very different from my experience. I set the order up, i paid, said it was a 28 day lead time and it was shipped out in like 2.5-3 weeks, but its also that red and black fade color scheme, so it mightve been mass produced, but they seemed friendly and had no “excuses”
As for the NM torque of the seatpost, thats so freaking high are you sure about it being 10+ nm for rhe seatpost? I was thinking 5-6.
