Re: Patty's Long Rant and Guide To Affordable Frames

-The biggest disappointment has been both the VB-168 and the Yoeleo R12. The 168 (my particular frame) is a noodle.

I'm actually surprised by this. I don't find it to be any less stiff than my Tarmac SL7. And I'm a pretty big guy around 85kg. My 168 is actually my crit bike right now just because I don't want to crash and break my nice Tarmac. But performance wise I found them to be pretty similar.

I wonder if this new frame is, in part, to avoid stepping on the toes of their OEM partners like Nich and Tavelo.

The fact that Adapt doesn’t even list the AT-B01 on their website any longer makes me suspect this is the case as well.

Either way, I like the small updates. Especially the hanger as finding a replacement derailleur hanger for open mold frames can be a nightmare.

Re: Interesting Aliexpress finds! - good deals, interesting stuff, new products etc! I just picked up one of these tools for $30 on sale and I have to say it's pretty cool. Probably completely unnecessary for most people but I get super OCD about my lever positioning and it helps getting them perfectly aligned. Also doubles as a RD hanger alignment tool.

Re: Spcycle R065 700C Full Carbon AERO Road Disc Brake Frameset Looks pretty good. Definitely looks like the Aeroad which isn’t a bad thing because that’s a sexy bike. Really short stem options and wide bars without any narrow options so I would need a new cockpit that fits. Wish they would start making narrow bars with longer stem options (38/120). Curious what the derailleur hanger options are for a direct mount RD. What’s the price?

Winspace?

Yes! They make exactly what I need. Now just need to buy one.




The white one is actually the exact thing I'm looking for to match the frame I have. I've emailed Winspace to ask about buying. I wonder if there are other channels to get a hold of one.

That tfsa has absolutely atrocious geometry, you don't want it. Bross will be selling overseas, available "soon", god knows what exactly soon means here.

It’s not too far off from my Tarmac SL7. The reach is a good bit shorter (12mm) but the stack and top tube length are similar. Wheelbase is 6mm shorter. Could probably make it work with a longer stem.

The Bross looks really nice but seems to be vaporware for now. Would be cool to see it come to the US but all I keep hearing is “coming soon.”

Edit: Ok, the reach is 15mm shorter. So maybe not the best.

The Spycle (Aeroad copy) or TTX38 (Foil copy) are probably leading the race right now. Geo looks good. T47 bottom bracket. Custom paint options.

Re: Spcycle R065 700C Full Carbon AERO Road Disc Brake Frameset Anybody take a chance on this frameset? Might order one and see how it goes. Wondering if they offer a direct mount derailleur hanger and custom paint to make it more enticing. @spcycle

Re: Stiff, Aero, Crit Bike Yea the TFSA is out. Leaning towards the SP Cycle Aeroad copy. Partially because my other open mold is labeled "CANDY" and this being a Canyon copy could get the same font and do "Candy" on the downtube.

Re: Frame "inspiration" reference thread Spycycle R065 is basically the Canyon Aeroad.

My p505 base combo has been great and honestly a onesided crank pm isnt even a comparisom

Same. The Magene PM with cranks for $300 is a steal. PM is dead on with my other power meters. And the cranks were a straight swap with Shimano and took less than 10 minutes for the install. Couldn't have been easier. I'm considering another set for the crit bike actually.
