XMCS - Factory tour with Peter Xu / Hubs, Frame, Rims
« on: February 25, 2026, 04:00:17 AM »
So guys, spring festival is over, I already had that video done a while, but I feel confident to release it now, after the people over at XMCS are back at the office :)

It's a Tour De Force through all of the individual factories





I also summarized most of the video info in a Blog Post, also with (sortable) table of all available wheels on their website right now, as well as the details on the Hub line up of Xiamen Carbonspeed.

Here the frame line-up AFAIK for 2026, but I guess Tim/Requiem from XMCS nl is even more up to speed than me:

- Gravel Frame: the gravel frame was not discussed in the video https://chinertown.com/index.php/topic,6967.0/topicseen.html
- Aero Racing #1: we had a detailed look at one of their Racing frames, with the new tech developed from XMCS regarding max. stiffness.
- Aero Racing #2: also not in the video, Photo in the blog post.
- New handlebars that go with the frames.

Otherwise, as far as I understood, there are more changes coming this year, so stay tuned :)

It was a great video and I agree a longer interview with Peter would be super interesting.

THX for the vid. Most interesting for me is that they're CNCing their own hubs.
