Re: Spcycle New Mold SP-R088 Carbon Road Frame
Quote from: felixdisco on July 10, 2025, 02:52:37 AM
If anyone in Europe (ideally Germany) is interested in an R088 frame – 56 cm in matte silver, feel free to DM me - will make a fair price. Unfortunately, I ordered the wrong size and the frame is already painted 😬 It's expected to arrive in 2–3 weeks.


Sent you a dm ;-) I‘m interested and from germany

Re: Serenade 4550 Wavy Wheelset SUB 1200g steel spokes 500USD

I would appreciate you taking a look if that isn't too much trouble, but since yours are brass it probably wouldn't be a concern even if they were as short as mine. Part of it may be having these built with hubs Serenade isn't used to working with, which complicates spoke length calculation by a bit.

I took these to a local shop and the mechanics there recommended replacing three of the spokes with slightly longer ones so the nipple heads are supported. The worst two sit 2 to 3mm below the bottom of the slot and are not threaded into the head at all which is what concerned me and the mechanics agreed. I am trying to work with Serenade to get a credit for buying the replacement spokes and I will replace them myself.

I appreciate your efforts and we are willing to cooperate with you. We hope that every customer has a better wheel.

When customers raise questions, we will take note of them and make improvements, trying to make them perfect.

We rarely hear users complain about broken nipples. We insist on using the same model and the same material.

Within the 2-year warranty period, if it is a material problem, we will replace it for free. If it exceeds 2 years, we will provide assistance so that everyone can balance.

Re: Seraph Bikes Superlight 836g X68 - Alternative to SL8 Fakes? Received my new fork today. Significant difference in weights uncut (416g to 343g before), but it also just feels significantly more solid.

I'll keep you posted.

Re: Serenade 4550 Wavy Wheelset SUB 1200g steel spokes 500USD I'm looking to get these wheels as a dedicated gravel set next:
https://serenadebikes.net/wider-tire-gravel-bike-carbon-Wheelset-40mm-depth-36mm-wide-clincher-rims-SR042-hub-p6403872.html

It's sort of inspired by the Zipp XPLR 303 wheels. Not quite as extreme at 30internal/36external.
1350g +/- with Pillar1420s/CX-Rays. I'll probably get 1420s this time around as they might be marginally stiffer due to their ever so slightly thicker cross section. Also they're cheaper so win/win.

I'm looking to run 40-45s on them. They're available in hookless and hooked. For gravel, I actually prefer hookless, though.

I'll keep you posted on how these ride once I get them.

Re: arc8 escapee open mold The ARC8 Escapee, is not an open mold, it was the first frame from ARC8 developed by Jonas Müller, the Mold was sold to some small brands, and that was the financial start for ARC8.
