Happy Holidays!
What about additional fees and cost of shipping to UE?
I didn't have to pay anything extra besides that 150USD DPD shipping. No custom duties not vat, it was just delivered by DPD to my place.
They now offer the X70 Frame, which looks to be the same as the Spcycle R088. It's an SL8 clone with uDH and a different headtube design. Maybe it’s an interesting alternative if you don't want to buy a Spcycle.
, way better comunication at SPCycle, and I would think that Tantan doesn't produce their TT-X70..
Not that i like tantan, but a few thoughts / questions on SPCycle: they only seem to exist online as an aliexpress seller (Shenzhen dishai industrial co., ltd), which is registered in "Room 206" in a building in Shenzen. Not, let's say, a factory in Xiamen (600km away). Then, SPCycle website takes you to another store front clearly tailored to the west, with the same reference to Shenzhen dishai industrial, which is good, as it implies, that unlike LTWOO, the spcycle store on aliexpress is the same as the online store on www.sp-cycle.com. But neither proves it's an actual factory. Arguably, everything points to the fact it's probably not a factory. None of their content looks like an OEM / factory. They only mention factory space in one sentence somewhere. Maybe it's the retail arm of a manufacturer they're hiding? Either way, i'd argue SPcycle is less likely than tantan to make their own stuff. To me, they're like velobuild?
I think they've changed details in the latest model they've posted on their Instagram.
Now the handlebars have the points just like the original rock, and the shift leg uses a different screw
