New TAN TAN Frame X68 Replacement

[glepore]

You can already buy Sp-Cycle 0 offset Seatpost for R088 for around 60€ on AliExpress

I believe those use the old "Richey" style clamp that the original sl8 zero used. I don't want that. The sl9 zero uses the same style clamp as the 15 and has the same aero profile.

Hi
Maybe old info, but anyway. I just got reply for "New X68" :

The mold for the new version of the TT-X68 frame is still being manufactured.
We need to wait for the sample frame to pass the test before we can start producing the frame and start selling it.
It is expected to be September-October.

We only have 3D pictures and no pictures of the actual frame yet.

TT-X68 new will be in sizes: 49/52/54/56/58/61cm (it is not sure whether the mold will be opened for all frame sizes now)

Hey everyone

Some photos and a geometry chart  for the updated X68
Looks like 35c clearance but I have been told this is provisional and the BB is T47
Photos is a 54cm which will be the first size for sale with the shortest lead time when it becomes available, good job as 54cm is my size 
No Ideas what frame sizes they will be offering as was told "Regarding the full range of sizes, nothing has been finalized yet; we will make a decision based on market demand and sales performance"

Price "As for the price, it should be the same as that of the TT-X68" which is good to here!

I really hope that at least size 58 is suitable, I worry because the new tt-x7 is available up to size 56 only.

I think I prefer this design over VRT or the ICAN one
Massive fork / relatively classic rear

How many months till we see first BB sleeve debonding issue? 

[KuBiDrugar]

35 days to be exact.

[Sander2177]

BB deboning can happen on any bike I have seen it on the big brands but obviously it may get handled better but for £500 its throw away so worth a punt IMO.                                               Geo chart saying 35c for clearance but this is still TBC

INFO:

The mold production sequence for the frames is: 54 → 56 → 52 → 49 → 58 → 61 cm.
Molds for the 54, 56, and 52 cm sizes are currently in production.
Orders are expected to open in 30 days, with shipping scheduled for October or November.

This time, I have to disagree with you 😢😁. I'm not necessarily criticizing the fact that the bottom bracket comes loose on such a cheap frame (though that shouldn't happen), but what I find unacceptable is Tantan's complete lack of respect for the consumer. They don't hesitate to ghost people, and I don't appreciate that at all.

Are there any photos of the steerer tube?

Ugh. I dont want a Tarmac clone, but this ticks so many boxes. Thankful for the LTK-266-D-SL
