Hello guys, i was looking for tips on the frame i should choose for my bike, right now i had in mind the lightcarbon lcr017-d and the elves falath evo+, but i saw some feedback and didnt think it was that good for 1200€, any tips? I would like something with larger tubes, if anyone has a idea please let me know ;D ;D

if you could be even more vague, then we could ourselves make sure to be just as vague, maybe more.

Sorry, let me be a bit less vague
Road bike frame
Budget: max €1200 for the frame
Use: fast group rides and some racing (not endurance-focused)
Rider: 178 cm / 75 kg
Terrain: mostly flat to rolling
Would like something that would have the options of buying saddle and handlebar with it, and would be a frameset
I was considering the LightCarbon LCR017‑D and Elves Falath EVO+, but after reading some feedback about stiffness/QC at this price point, I’m not fully convinced Elves is worth €1200.
I’m specifically looking for a frame with larger tube profiles (aero or semi‑aero), prioritising stiffness and responsiveness over comfort.
Would be using it with Disc brake and 30 mm tyres
Anyhting else?

Voice Velo VH $1399USD (1200 Euro) https://www.pandapodium.cc/product/voicevelo-vfv-echo-aero-road-bike-frameset/
Ide Sheelimg who retired form the WT last year. He has the lighter VO variety and is racing it so maybe one to watch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yd1T_8ABlss.
Or stretch the budget and get a Tavelo Arow ($1650 usd 1400Euro) or conatct the OEM Adapt they only do B2B but say your looking to start a bike brand and order a sample frame and bar: http://www.adapt-bikes.com/Products-detail?product_id=95 will be about $900usd inc shipping.
