Workswell WCB-M-062

[Oolak]

I did read an article about how specialized has a dedicated team, trawling though Alibaba and Dhgate etc, and getting counterfeit listings removed. I won't list it here, as there was a lot of BS about all chinese frames being inferior.

Sounds interesting. You should just list it, this isn't a forum that attempts to control the message.. Everything I've read from the mods stressed open information as being the main priority.

And yeah sorry to op for helping derail the thread, maybe mods might want to break it off into a new thread or something

I ordered this frame from Dashine Bike on AliExpress.

I'll Start a new build thread once it arrives. Fingers crossed it all works out OK. Otherwise my wife will ban me from buying another Chiner!

The reach on the frame you ordered is pretty long at 422 vs the 414 (mediums) on the 062. Stack is pretty much the same.

Hope it works out for you this time!

Hi. I have seen most of you whose have built on wcs-m-062 frame have used forks with 100mm. Spec uses forks with 95mm in Stumpjumpers. Could you feel the difference when riding? Thanks

Has anyone bought it in bb92 version?

5mm is roughly .25 of a degree. I doubt anyone could tell that difference. I run mine rigid which would be equivalent to an 80mm fork and it rides fine for my tastes.

BSA for me, sorry I can't help.

I have the bb92 version. Got mine from Aliexpress, the workswell page.

Hey cool. I thought about getting the BB92. Only reason I didn't get it was because I already have the BSA BB. I'm curious, what does it look like on the 062?

My Mach 5 runs a BB92.

Thanks bxcc. Your right. I do not beleave anyone feel the difference between 95 mm and 100 mm. Probably I will install in my frame the RockShox SID XX 100mm forks. I think it is a good option.

I have bought BB30.

AFAIK it was the BB92 version that I recieved. So basically they supply it with the reducer BB installed (glued in). I wouldn't recommend it since the only thing that you can replace is the bearings.

If somehow the the cups got damaged, the frame would no longer be usable.

Hey guys, new member here.  Can anyone tell me if there is a clear path between the down tube and seat tube at the bottom bracket junction on the  062?  I've searched around quite a bit but haven't run across an answer yet. 

I'm looking at building up a nice light HT for this upcoming race season and the 062 is on my shortlist.  It's not a deal breaker, since it won't be a part of the initial build but I'd really like to be able to run a stealth dropper at some point... Especially if someone gets there act together and comes out with a short travel dropper that doesn't weight a ton. 

[xcbarny]

I'm fairly sure that on the model I had (PF30/BB92), there was a clear path, since the BB shell did not go through the frame:



The BB30 and BSA models are probably different, with continuous shells.

[RS VR6]

It is on mine with a BSA bb. My brake hose actually ran up the seat tube when I was trying to route it through the frame.

Sounds good,thanks!  Should be a fun build... cable routing aside.
