Frame recommendations around 60cm.

[ilja]

(My apologies if this has been discussed ad nauseam).

I'm looking for a modern carbon road frame for a 193cm tall rider (6ft 3), who I'd usually suggest a 60/61cm frame, with a stack height in the 615 mm ballpark. Rider is new to road cycling, so the geometry shouldn't be too aggressive.

So far I've only seen the the TanTan/Seraph TT-X34. Are there any other Chinese companies offering frames that big?

Thanks.

There aren't many performance oriented frames with these dimensions. Most will be endurance with such a high stack

What reach you looking for? Guessing 400+

Yishun r068d could suit. Has a stack of 597 but has a mandatory spacer of 15mm for the internal cable routing (and a headset cover), so that bumps the stack up to apx what you're after.

I'm similar height, I have one and use it with yishun's 130mm stem and a set of 35cm speeder bars that have a reach of 82mm. It's a good frame.

Yes, reach around 410 would be nice, but longer stem should work, too.

Thanks for the pointer to the Yishun R068-D frame. This should work for this rider. How much did you pay for yours?

We bought a few different frames and other components from yishun, so the price was a bit different to usual. You can contact them by email and they'll get back to you really quick with quotes.

I am 1.91m had my bike fitting last friday with my Yishun R1058-D in size 59 with 110mm x 440mm handlebar combo and it fits me by 2mm in the perfect range with a not too aggressive position. Keep the setback of 15mm in mind so if you have shorter arms than usual adapt the reach accordingly. I had to clamp my saddle on the front limit.

if you want to know more details about yishun or the frames available get in touch with Kitty: "kitty.jiang@yishunbike.com".

Unless they are a 60 year old boomer they should fit on a 58, i'm 192cm and can even ride a 56cm with a 140mm stem and that is with me having my saddle quite far forward over the BB. 60cm is freaky large imo.

I'm 6' 3" as well running the Airwolf YFR066 58CM which has a stack height of 614mm. 110mm stem on the integrated bar with 10mm spacers. Fits well to my body, but I don't know your inseam. I would recommend taking a look at that or the Carbonda CFR 1056 for similar sizing and geo

Hi, 195cm tall, 96cm inseam and full of understanding for the problem - very limited choices of frames from China, especially if you are looking at endurance rather than race geometry.
I have bought and built a Velobuild VB-R-099, if I am not mistaken the frame is also available as Long Teng LTK268-D, Workswell WCB-R-268 and TanTan TT-X21.

Seatpost setback is used to adjust your position over the cranks, position on the bike is then determined by stem, spacers and handlebar.
I like my VB-R-099, but the saddle height to bar drop is about the maximum that I can / want to tolerate.
