Re: LTK266-D-SL, lightweight frame confirmed under 800g w/paint and accessories (M)
Update after slamming the stem to match my previous bike's position, and doing a 90 minute solo where I could really pay attention to feel. This was an object lesson in how much fit matters. I didn't realize how uncomfortable I was with the extra 30mm of spacer stack and how much that was affecting my sense of the bikes handling. As I settle in and get used to the LTK266-D-SL, it is starting to wow me. The only thing I'm missing right now is a certain snap of acceleration, and I attribute that almost entirely to the change in tires. If it had 30mm GP5k mounted instead of these Michelin Pro5 35mm comfy boys, I doubt it would miss a beat. Having tires that are each +~180g and doing group rides with surges was not a good test. After a solo, the LTK is showing how comfortable, responsive, and confidence-inspiring it is. OK, enough from me now. Excited to see other people's builds and just chime in if people have issues. Long term review next year. September 23, 2025, 10:38:02 AM |

Re: LTK266-D-SL, race frame, 680g, <800g w/paint & metal parts (M), fits 35mm+ tires
Hi, I'm thinking about getting this frame Handlebar looks good if you want the 8mm Lift Design! If they provide FSA adapters, you're good to go as long as you also get the FSA No55 headset. Personally I'd prefer flat bars. November 15, 2025, 02:45:40 PM |

Hi, I'm thinking about getting this frame I dont know how much stack you need, but I think this handle bar with the FSA adapter should look really nice with this frame. I would get the "FSA No. 55R 1.5' ACR Low Stack Headset" as it has the updated 42mm upper bearing the C ring that I think works better than the older version of the headset. It should all match up really nicely. November 16, 2025, 10:39:21 AM |
