Re: Seraph Bikes Superlight 836g X68 - Alternative to SL8 Fakes?
My bike is out of paint as of today, so figure around a little over a month allowing for the holiday break. From the video the paint looks great and bb and disc mounts seem nicely faced. March 06, 2025, 06:09:00 AM |

Question, does the lowest spacer/headsetcap/whateverthename is, sit flush after finishing the build? The gap/size doesnt really seem to fit the headtube/toptube-intersection. By the way, loving the purple matte frame! Haven't seen that one before. March 12, 2025, 08:03:37 AM |

Just got info that my frame is finised and shipped out. I ordered/paid mine on the 16th of January. Also got some pics from the Tantan guys before they packed and shiped it out. So far this has been the only paint job I've seen on the X68 that would make me reconsider not ordering raw paintless carbon. March 12, 2025, 08:39:59 AM |

Btw is the derrailer hanger the same as the SL8 has?Yes. I swapped the stock hanger with an aliexpress direct mount hanger. The fit was perfect and I've had no issues. March 13, 2025, 09:02:03 AM |

Hey all, we have almost finished the build yesterday. I also dropped that metal plate holding the front derailleur plate into the seat tube absolute pain to get that back March 30, 2025, 07:09:15 AM |

I also dropped that metal plate holding the front derailleur plate into the seat tube absolute pain to get that back For future user, you can have a look at pages 20, 21 and 22 of the Tarmac SL8 manual. It explains how to install it. March 30, 2025, 09:52:22 AM |

Re: Seraph Bikes Superlight 836g X68 - Alternative to SL8 Fakes?
I must say that it's my first time using any OSPW, so besides it looking cool, I'm not sure what benefits it brings. dovh thanks for getting back to me ![]() I have pulled the trigger and ordered this OSPW I am almost doing a mirror build of my Genuine SL8 as I have the Ceramicspeed OSPW and well this does look very good! I also have have ordered a Ryet Saddle and some other bits. Hoping to get this build down to sub 6.8kgs How the bike riding? April 04, 2025, 04:31:57 AM |

Re: Seraph Bikes Superlight 836g X68 - Alternative to SL8 Fakes?
Prom dress. Initial impressions, only 15 miles in a 20 mph wind. It's very comfortable for a performance bike, didn't notice the carbon spokes at all, but hey, I've never ridden anything with a really wide (26 int) and a 30. So I'm not qualified. The position is aggressive, but I'm 65 and can ride it so long as the hoods are reasonably high. It doesn't feel cheap, that's for sure. Does it feel like an sl8 pro/expert? Dunno. My guess is close. Wheeltop? Man,it shifts fine. The app is difficult. Press the bluetooth thing or nothing happens. No one tells you that. The fd shift is low in casual mode. Theres a guy on facebook that has a bootleg app that separates out race mode from sleep(oem app kills sleep if you select race), and I suspect that'll greatly improve fd action. Rear action is plenty quick. April 18, 2025, 07:27:31 PM |
