Title: Speeder R48D
Post by: Kristiaan on December 18, 2023, 10:42:57 AM
Hi All,    I cannot find the exact information.  Does the Speeder R48D allow for internal cable routing?
Who has got one build up?  Any ride info? 

Thanks.

nope unless you use a integrated fork (one can be found on the for sale forum on chinertown)

Here is the thread for the frame - https://chinertown.com/index.php/topic,3597.135.html

TLDR it's a light/stiff/ racing frame and to me it's fairly good downhill/cornering.

The internal routing version seems to be exclusive to the brands that carry this frame, such as the Winspace SLC. This version has a D shaped steerer tube and proprietary headset to allow for passing cables through the stem and in front of the steerer tube.
However, Speeder will only sell you the frame with a standard fork (no internal routing)...ask me how I know. I ended up buying a Winspace. Otherwise, the frames are identical.
