Title: Light weight Carbon Road bike frame A4 EVO
Post by: dexti on March 05, 2026, 03:51:01 PM
Has anyone have some experience with this this frame it costs 1200$ and weights around 800g, also light integrated handlebars, it seems like nice climbing lightweight frame. I know avenger have shuttle sl but i want something more relaxed.

Not Peter's, I am pretty sure it's Honfgu. Peter has Revengers, not Avengers.

Dang I was close! Hongfu makes good frame too, in a lower tier spec wise than Peter I think (someone may correct me lol)

Good old Hong Fu Avenger. Not a popular frame but reviews feedback however for this frame from what I have read has all been positive

I had one when road disc just became a thing (RS785 era IIRC), and it's a very old version when HongFu just created the Avenger brand (cable/hose entrance from the sides of down tube, BB86, and pretty sure much heavier than the current version) but much cheaper.
At that time it's still using the model number FMXXX, instead of A4 evo.

Overall very stiff, but nothing special nor bad otherwise (even not that light at that time).

But I'd say if they keep the external hose routing version but keep the super light weight, it will be pretty good for me to consider nowadays.

Found my order, it is in 2016, and at that time it's already using Avenger brand name, but the model is A6 not the latest A4 evo.

Still way cheaper (4395 RMB vs 6790RMB), and the weight is not that good for A4 evo either.
There are better (lighter and cheaper) alternatives, like Bigrock Aethos clone (730g for 49, 6200RMB, or even lighter and more expensive for the team version).
