New released Chinese Frameset recommendations

Hi mates,
I've recently seen the Bxt road 145 electroplated red version, which looks absolutely amazing, what do you think about the frame and are there better options out there?

Hi,
No i have no experience, but i saw their painting is like the trek electroplated (red chromium) which must look amazing.

I actually have a look795 and this frame looks exactly like that just with a more amazing color

BXT has been around for a while. Lots of good reviews with the odd bad experience here and there. Pretty typical of "cheaper" chinese brands.

$600USD on the aliexpress BXT store

The claimed 1050g for a 54cm frame makes me skeptical... the frame looks quite chunky

ok, so it is a copy of a look frame?

It is definitely heavily insipered by the madone, though worse in pretty much every aspect, that seatstay-top tube joind demolishes any aero performence it could have had

I'd say it is a mix of previous gen Trek Madone and Look 795 Blade RS. I do wonder how well Look twsted in aero tunnel, considering it has more or less the same rear end

Edit: seems to be 217w for older Look Blade 795. That's not very good

Besides having non-dropped seatstays, it's nothing like the look. Google the model to see a picture angled from the front. The joint is basically a current madone if you filled in the hole, it's huge.

That is a very respectable price

Yeah maybe not 100%, but heavily inspired
