Re: Seraph Bikes Superlight 836g X68 - Alternative to SL8 Fakes?
Yeah it's a crap vid/channel in any case. Super cringe stuff. I assume he's on a YoHo bike in that video too.

Re: [Help Wanted] High-End SL8-Like OEM Frame – T1100/EPS/UD Raw
There has been an uptick of individuals joining this forum with blatantly self-serving behavior, yet failing to read the room of whom the experienced folks are in here. I'm not the morality or etiquette police. And this isn't Weight Weenies. This is sub-genre forum of well-meaning people who can look past the BS of most major brands. Perhaps contributing in a productive manner rather than disregarding the people who have already answered your question would have you fare better in here. We looking forward to seeing your contributions in the coming months. August 07, 2025, 11:43:19 AM |

Re: TAN TAN X67
Did you grease the bolt? Had a slipping seatpost on my TT-X34 and nothing helped either. Finally tried a little bit of carbon paste on the bolt and ta da, the seatpost stayed in place ever since. Tried greasing it, carbon paste, loctite mid and low. Please grease my bolt. Humour qu'on aime 🫡 You could try applying a varnish + a few grains of sandpaper on the seatpost (only on the part that will be inside the frame); in France, at ACTION stores, you can find an “anti-slip” varnish with grains in it. It’s meant for floors, but it should work! I'll try to just thicken the frame with one more layer of carbon (0,25mm). For now, a long piece of can taped to the frame plus a lot of small grain carbon paste did the trick. But I'll have to remove the Seatpost to go back home. The seat clamp seems ok, it's greased so it doesn't get stucked by friction. Tantan answered ; they'll send a new seatclamp just in case and a new derailleur hanger that is going less to the right. Should solve the issue. I'll do some pics of the holes, I taped them with black electrical tape. I'm looking at getting this frame myself, outside of the seat post issues, would you say it's a good buy? I'm in between this and an SP-R088... After nearly two weeks of riding, I really like it ! Seems a bit flexy in the rear end when I'm static and just push on the crank. But feels stiff and nimble while riding it. Reached 92km/h in a downhill while completely feeling safe about it. It's t47 inboard 🤗 August 10, 2025, 09:16:11 AM |

Re: Light(ish) Aero frames?

Re: Light(ish) Aero frames?
This looks top tier.... A bit scary with the idea of paying into an indiegogo and not via PayPal or anything but I think this wins on geometry and weight promises. Not a fan of that gold hardware tho I asked them via whatsapp, they can also do bare titanium/black hardware September 04, 2025, 04:43:58 AM |

Re: LTK266-D-SL, race frame, 680g, <800g w/paint & metal parts (M), fits 35mm+ tires
exactly my sentiment, i hesitated to spend money so far and after reading all the problems people have its not worth it. Here in Europe I can get a brand new Cube Nuroad Frame for 900 Euro. Funny seeing this on a long teng thread, given they OEM for Cube... May 14, 2026, 05:24:01 AM |
