Title: Winspace M6
Post by: alfiomotrambo on March 11, 2026, 04:42:00 AM
Hi everyone,

I'm opening this thread because I haven't seen any discussion about it here yet.

Has anyone already bought the M6 frame? the price seems low compared to other Winspace model

Hopefully we can collect some information about the M6 here 🙂

Thanks!

Sorry to not add anything substantial, but it's Winspace, not Windspace ;)

Winspace positions the M6 as their 3rd-tier frameset. You would think this was their new flagship bike based on the amount of money and energy they've put into the marketing rollout and press release.

Smart move by pricing it $1499. Basically undercutting everyone including themselves. And the geometry is closer to the original T1500. I don't just understand the 3rd-tier aspect.

The stupidity of the marketing claims is full on "please piss on my intelligence" territory.

A smaller German magazin (Roadbike) actually tested it alongside the Tarvelo Arrow and the Seka Spear.

Apparently the deep fork makes it more susceptible to crosswinds when paired with 50mm deep wheels.

And what were the results?

With socks that short, and sunglasses under the helmet strap, I'm not sure I'd take the test serious  ;)

No aero testing, only stiffness, frame weight and comfort vs Seka Spear, the new Rose Shave and Tavelo Arrow.

Frame Weight: Seka 812g, Rose 904, Tarvelo 1002g, Winspace 1041g.
Headtube stiffness (in Nm per degree of flex): Rose 81. Winspace 79, Tavelo 66, Seka 48
BB stiffness: Rose 114 N/mm, Winspace 109 N/mm, Tavelo 90 N/mm, Seka 64 N/mm.
Comfort rear triangle + seatpost: Seka 167 N/mm, Rose 220 N/mm, Winspace 319 N/mm, Tavelo 331 N/mm

Given the fact that it is a small mag I'd take the exact values with a pinch of salt, but it looks like the Winspace is a stiff racebike, with comfort not being it's greatest strength. Apparently it's a reactive bike and easy to handle, but the deep fork + Winspace 50 wheels are susceptible to crosswinds.

Winspace got high on their own stuff after first mover success and started asking crazy high prices for their products. Seems like literally created a new product to undercut themselves in order to stay competitive to up and coming chinese brands.

Just a bump to see if there has been anyone else building or riding the M6 ?

A buddy of mine here told me yesterday he finally received his M6 frameset earlier in the week.

Dude is a total stud as well. 6'3" 210lbs. Can confirm his low Z2 is my Z3 lol. He ordered a size XXL. He's coming from a Canyon Endurance CF and said that price w/ handlebars for the M6 was too good of a deal to pass up. He's stoked.

I bring this up because as I've always said, 6 years of reviewing Chinese bikes and I can still really only convince Chicago folks to invest in Winspace. The only exception very recently now is Tavelo and QuickPro. You will now find all 3 brands at every local crit race here.

Truthfully though having both YouTuber influencers and organizing race club validate these brands puts a lot of confidence in the average buyer. Buyers who aren't on the forums.

On taobao there is only full bike, no dedicated frameset for M6:

https://detail.tmall.com/item.htm?id=1028781813237

But at least the full bike price is way more reasonable than their recent frames. The SLC3 frameset itself is almost the same price as the whole M6 bike with 105 di2.

I used to consider Winspace frameset when SLC2 was still available, but nowadays I consider Winspace/Quick/SEKA as semi-western brands.
All kinds of sponsorships, high pricing (some times even higher than Giant), exotic aero designs.

I know a few people here in Milwaukee who are curious, but the process of ordering the cheaper frames from like Lightcarbon is too daunting so they end up bailing. And when it comes to more expensive frames from Winspace and QuickPro, they'd rather just buy a Trek (even if it still costs way way more).

Any long term review of this frame? Currently considering between the m6, quick pro blade or the tavelo arow race.

I reached out to customer service, and they told me that if I order an XL frame but want a 320mm zero-setback seatpost (XS and S) instead, it'll cost an extra $80.
They said to just leave a note with the order: '(A 0 setback seatpost in 320mm length for M6)'.

On top of that, they're charging another $30 for shipping on that $80 swap.
I'm not even buying a second seatpost, but I'm somehow being charged an extra $110 total!

To make matters worse, they also dropped the discount rate to 5%.
This is ridiculous, so I've decided not to buy it anymore.🤣

I hope this ancient trend of thinking that larger sizes need extra amount of setback will end soon. Longer riders have longer legs which already gives them more setback. We don't need slacker seat tube angles and be forced to buy setback seatposts.

Congratulations! Which size did you order? Did you include the handlebar? Probably I will order the frame in size 54 for 1'76 tall. But no idea with the handlebar... 105 or 115 length, I have to calculate the final reach comparing with my curent bike.

My frame has been shipped today. The groupset is coming from Italy and It Will arrive this week. I only have to look for a bottom bracket but I think I will install a Praxis.

I recently built up my Winspace M6 with a Shimano Ultegra Di2 groupset, Serenade wheels, a GEOID powermeter, and Goldix chainrings.

The whole build process went surprisingly smoothly, and I was genuinely impressed by the overall quality of the components and frame. Everything felt well-made, with a solid finish and attention to detail. Having used frames and components from cheaper manufacturers in the past, I can honestly say that Winspace is on a completely different level when it comes to quality.

But the real surprise came during my first rides.
The first thing I noticed was just how stiff and responsive the frame feels. Every pedal stroke feels direct, and the bike really encourages you to push harder. Acceleration feels sharp, and maintaining high speeds seems effortless.
In fact, this is easily one of the fastest bikes I've ridden. The riding characteristics actually remind me quite a bit of my old Specialized Venge, which is definitely a compliment!

The M6 has that aggressive, race-oriented feeling I really enjoy, combining excellent stiffness with impressive speed.
Overall, I'm extremely happy with the Winspace M6. The build quality exceeded my expectations, and the performance on the road has been equally impressive. If you're looking for a fast, stiff, race-focused road bike without paying the premium prices of the big-name brands, the M6 is definitely worth considering.

A seriously impressive bike!
