You think they keep stock?!
They make to order and they still have a backlog still due to Chinese New Year which they are still catching up on.
I would say 8-10 weeks for a frame at the moment

Vivian at Tan tan has quoted shipping in 15-20 days  with shipping to UK 10-18 days

Hmm. So your suggesting that they can ship a matt or gloss frame in 2-3 weeks but 8-10 for one that's painted in the stock white?

Hmmm, I’ve considered the SLC3 as a potential replacement for the SLC2 frame I currently have. I can actually get Winspace products at trade price and i I’ve bought their wheels, but I tend to buy less from them now. Other companies like XM Carbon Speed offer wheels that are cheaper and better specced, and honestly, I’m not keen on the aesthetics of Winspace frames.
What frame was your build?
I built a TanTan FM639; basically a Cervelo R5 clone. I like it, but the SLC 3.0 is just better aero and weight wise. If it had a threaded BB it would be perfect.

I don’t think they keep stock at all and manufacturer on order and give out general time frames for delivery.
I think wait times are a lottery
