Re: 29er XC Hardtail - Boost - Modern Geometry
Found something a bit more fancy from Winow: I just found it on Ali, very nice frame but only in size M for the moment : https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005003614935191.html?spm=a2g0o.productlist.0.0.1139191cXDcjJx&ad_pvid=202111300109029926768664505920007477368_3&s=p December 01, 2021, 01:35:31 AM |

Re: Spcycle 2023 New Travel 120mm Super Light 29er full suspension frame
Biggest issue I have with it is the headset cable routing. I won't build a bike with that garbage. Head angle could be a degree more slack, but since it has headset routing I am out either way. May 05, 2023, 03:02:22 PM |

Re: Lightcarbon LCG071-D Build
Gentlemen, could anyone measure the front/rear clearance with your tyres, please? I wonder how thick I can go. And if there is a room for fenders. I measure about 65mm between fork and 64mm between stays, so 50mm-ish is probably max (IE 47mm). November 12, 2023, 11:26:48 AM |

Re: SP-Cycle M06 build thread
The 55mm chainline looks real measured with a 3mm off set. However at this offset and with 32t ring I seem to have some rubbing under load condition as my frame is scuffed at the chainstay/ring area. And there is no way you can go bigger than 32t with 3mm offset, or I put the bike together wrong, which is entirely possible lol I’ll add pictures later tonight. March 21, 2024, 06:43:01 PM |

Re: Spcycle New Mold G068 Carbon Gravel Frame
Why not make the tire clearance 50mm or more? That is what a lot of people want. Please!

Re: Lightcarbon: New LCR017-D (or Yishun R1058-D)
What are all these tier/QA/QC levels people have been talking about recently regarding LightCarbon? Does a customer now have an option to get a higher quality manufactured frame if pays/donates more? Is it a new pay-to- The Great Hambini states in his youtube video that one should refer to his video or mention Z3 in order to get a frame that doesn't catastrophically fail. I figure that's how he gets his kickback from light carbon. Pretty shitty way to make money by fear mongering people into paying extra for a Hambini "special" September 22, 2024, 06:31:07 AM |

Re: Ultralight hardtails
Hi there, any updates on your repair and riding it? thanks! Man, buying anything from SP-Cycle was a huge mistake and their so-called warranty is just a slap in the face and a bad joke. I'd hate to see others make the same mistake - it'll save them a ton of headaches, at least. Trying to communicate with them is like talking to a brick wall. They don't want to deal with you at all. The only thing they'll tell you is that you can fix it with a tap, even after I told them we already tried that and the threads didn't last long before completely stripping out. Turns out there was no material left to recut the threads and we later found out that the threaded insert laminated into the frame was cracked, so it had to be removed and replaced with a new one, then the whole rear end had to be re-laminated with the new insert. The whole repair ended up costing me the equivalent of $175 USD and I haven't received any compensation from SP-Cycle to this day. They're playing dead, even though they sent me a frame with a damaged thread straight from the factory and don't even get me started on the fact that the frame is starting to crack under the seat post clamp. I haven't put that many miles on the bike yet. It's been nothing but trouble so far, but I'm hoping I can finally get some decent rides in next season. On the bright side, the bike is really light and flies like a rocket. Sorry for not posting an update sooner, I've just had a lot of other stuff on my plate and totally forgot about this forum. But I hope my experience can help others avoid making the same mistake I did. more pics here https://photos.app.goo.gl/LEPh6Dz5tv3gMGZt7

Re: Spcycle M06 or identity noname higher-priced Taiwan, need your opinion friends
Unfortunately, I've had a bad experience with SP-Cycle and I'd recommend looking for something else. I bought the SP-M038 and the frame was delivered with a damaged thread for the rear thru-axle. The repair to re-cut the thread didn't last long and the rest of the material crumbled away. We discovered that the dropout laminated into the frame was cracked and had to be replaced and re-laminated. SP-Cycle has been playing dead for a while now, and all their so-called warranty is just a bad joke and a slap in the face to customers. On top of that, cracks started appearing on the frame under the seat post clamp. I tighten everything with a torque wrench and ride without a backpack. At my weight of 87kg, I don't think I'm overloading the bike, but I'm worried the cracks might get bigger over time. I hope this experience of mine helps you at least a bit in considering your decision.
