Looks like Yishun is not making or selling the R086 anymore. It is not
On the new website.  They only list 2 road bike frames.

Does anyone experience issue regarding slipping saddle rail? I am also trying to find a seatpost that is compatible on this frame. Does anyone know what 0 offset seatposts are compatible?

Yes when I first got it, I had that issue (probably due to some of the bad roads I ride on). They suggested I try 10nm. Instead I used medium strength thread locker on on the bolts and set it at 8nm. Have not had an issue since

If you check their printed catalogue, they still do.

Does anyone know some aftermarket seatpost for our frame? I badly need a 0 offset seatpost but there is no available in Yishun themselves according to Melinda.

I just uploaded an update video on this frame after 5000mi/8000km of use. Yes this frame is probably not available any longer directly to the end consumer, but it's excellent for the price point. I'd argue it's just as comparable as the western brands when using equally solid components. Stiff yet stable at higher speeds due to the longer geometry. More composed than my Winspace T1500 Gen1. My only main critiques are the overall looks of the frame (that downtube to front wheel gap) as well as the upper bottle cage mount placement.

1100g for the frame isn't exactly "light" these days. Lighter than my T1500 and weighs the same as my Giant Propel. But I have zero concerns about swiss cheese bottom brackets or carbon forks magically exploding. Very robust frameset and no flex in the important areas.

Hi Pat,

Do you know if Canyon Aeroad seatpost fits Yishun R-086D? I am planning to buy a 0 offset seatpost but I can't see any compatible seatpost around :(

Aero seatposts are proprietary unfortunately.

That's sad, I need a 0 offset seatpost. My fitter also recommended me to go 0 offset but Yishun said it's not available.

I am now selling my Yishun R086D frameset together with BB. If you are around Southeast Asia or at least in the Philippines and wanted to have this frame, let me know and I can sell the frameset to you.
