Title: Spcycle 053D-SL
Post by: SkylarRnD on July 06, 2025, 03:19:22 PM

https://www.sp-cycle.com/Spcycle-053D-SL-Carbon-Road-Bike-Frame-Disc-Brake-Full-Hidden-Cable-T47-BB-Lightweight-Road-Bicycle-Frameset-p6430659.html

Has anyone purchased this frame? I was checking out the R088 as an X68 alternative but then I sorted by Newest First and this frame popped up. Does it copy another frame previously created? I see it doesnt have a UDH...

Fits 32mm tires
T47 86.5mm BB
900g in undisclosed size
400mm Seatpost length for the long legged folks

Cipollinin Dolomia replica. They've been selling this one for a couple years at least.

Looking at it again a little bit closer and it looks like they've updated the frame to T47 BB and a lighter layup, so it technically is new.  :D

I have a love/hate relationship with SPCycle. Both my current road bikes are from them, the R088 and an older R027D. They're not the most customer friendly company to deal with and I've always had some minor build issues. Though both my frames have held up reliably. Their prices are reasonable during AliEx sales and they usually ship quite fast. If this 053D frame came up for a good price, I'd probably have no qualms buying from them.
