Adapt doesn't sell b2c. Speeder is a related company that sells b2c but they dont offer this particular frame so I doubd that anyone maganed to get one

Looks a lot like the Speeder 55.

The Adapt doesnt have a geometry table, but it looks very similar, with similar specs.

Adapt actually have the same frame as speeder 55, FM55 http://www.adapt-bikes.com/Products-detail?product_id=100 but it says that it has a t47 bb whilst the speeder has bb86 but I think it might just be a mistake on the page

So, I am able to purchase one frame from Adapt. Communication is seamless and quick. Though I was able to buy one frame because my friend wants to sponsor a racing team with these frames and I will be testing the frame. I will not delve into how much we've paid because Allyn might got mad at me but the price is quite on the expensive side in terms of Chiner frames.

Thats an old topic but it was the only place that I could find to talk about the DP-B02,
As I was looking for something like a tavelo arow, I stumbled on Adapt, long story short, they don’t sell it b2c but Allyn forwarded me to Livia Xu, from Chainbicycle ( liviaxu@chainbicycle.com) and she promptly answered me saying that they have the frameset available, after a few emails, she sent me the geometry chart, pictures of tha actual frame and we proceeded with the purchase.
The frameset costed me including shipping to Germany and handlebars 1064 usd which is not bad at all imho for a udh frameset with this geometry. It got shipped today and I will upload more informations about it when I get the frameset here.
I am extremely satisfied with how easy and smooth the transaction was, and probably I will keep them on my favorites list depending on how the frame is once I get it.

What I wanna know is that if there is anyone riding it atm and what is the feedback on the ride feel and characteristics.

I have that frame. It looks good in glossy paint.

As for the ride, I believe it's faster than my aero bike. But tbf, my position on aero bike was really stretched because it was really long and it has no 0 offset seatpost hence I currently have this bike now. I paired it with 50/55 DFS wheels and it became a racing machine. It is a good all-around bike and I also use it for racing, bike feels alive and corners pretty well on sharp corners. Control on descent also feels great. Also feels great in climbs as I broke a lot of my PR vs my previous bike. Overall, pretty decent for an all-around bike. Feel free to ask me any questions.

Paint it in glossy and it will be a headturner, even the guys with high end bikes turn their heads when I pass through lol

Thats a fantastic feedback!!! Do you have pictures of the build? I am thinking the same also to use some light purple candy color to get a shade of purple on sunlight. And xmcs 65mm wheels as berlin is flat as a frying pan there’s no need for me to think about weight.

Here you go. Pretty good looking bike. If you can preserve the raw carbon layout then it will be a head turner.

[Xtakayamax]

that looks super good, I will do exactly the same! thanks for sharing!

Thinking of pulling trigger on this frameset.  Did they offer glossy version or you had to DIY?

[Dark17]

I had them painted to glossy version. Initially, they offer the frameset as raw carbon. You have to pay additional usd for paint.

Looks super nice! What is de weight of your build (as is)?

The weight of that build at that time was around 7.9kg less the head unit and water bottles. I then upgraded my wheelset with DFS wheels which is 100g lighter and carbon crankset so I have no idea what's the actual weight atm. They have 2 version of the frame btw, standard and superlight. What I have is standard. Size 510 frame weighs in at 1000g with glossy paint. No idea about superlight weight.

I have been in discussion to purchase the frame, but the quote I've received does not include the accessories :  headset, thru axles, spacers, derailleur hanger, seatpost clamp . Which is not my expectation having purchased Chinese frames before.
Was this the same case with your order?
