Re: Hang Lun tibicycle.com They have some cool tech around the use of cast Ti. Though they list a custom order section, whether or not they will sell you a frame as an individual is hit or miss as they are more focused on B2B.

It’s before my time, but I beleive they are the factory that made the Ti Airborne frames back in the day, as well as contemporary frames for some of the bigger names in boutique Ti. There is another factory that also makes frames for higher end frames that does do custom orders through XACD (you can contact them directly or an Alibaba).

Having looked at the prices multiple factories with the genuine intent of starting a Ti based road micro brand and done a sample frame from the latter factory, I will tell you that they offer an extensive menu of options if you know what to ask for and while you can save money if you have a design already in mind, the prices from companies like J Guillem, Bossi, Curve, Holdsworth, Serk etc. that sell Ti frames made from Chinese factories is fair for a company offering a design, customer support, etc.

I couldn’t do it substantially better than those guys already were.

Re: Interesting Aliexpress finds! - good deals, interesting stuff, new products etc! Seeing an increasing number of full builds for sale on Ali. Not bad deals price wise, but definitely don't trust build quality.
I'd have a local shop or mechanic do a full rundown. Even factoring that into budget...its an interesting proposition.

This is all very exciting! From this picture it seems like, there arent screws on the top tube? Do you know anything about that? And does anyone know
how the compartment on the down tube closes? is there a mount for a bottlecage on the latch itself?

I might build a first time Chinese bike with this frame for my bff, she is 167 cm tall, so I might go with the size 470, I think. Any opinions on that? I took here existing road bike as a template and talked with her what she likes/dislikes about it.

best wishes and thanks a lot to everyone on this thread and this forum. absolutly love it!

Here are some pics of my frame sent to me by Alisa - you can see that there are holes for bolt-on top tube bag. The frame has been shipped and should arrive soon.  I'll try to share an unboxing video.

Btw I requested metallic gray using a Pantone code, but it looks almost white in the pic.  Alisa assures me that they used paint color that matched my Pantone code, fingers crossed!

Re: New frame: Longteng RD301-D I’m really looking forward to seeing your and kwantani’s build. I’m struggling to decide between the RD301 and the ICAN Flyee. Thanks for the update

The downtube storage access is nice with the magnetic latch, but the underneath is just cavity expose to the entire inside of the downtube. How am I going store anything inside? what do I need to setup as storage? again sort of unfinished kind of solution that I need to figure out.

Alisa told me they sell them and are $8 for the sock.
