Re: BigRock carbon crankset with 24mm titanium spindle
just quickly install the left crank arm rotated 180 degrees and measure outside to outside distance between the crank arms. q-factor mystery solved.

Re: Lightcarbon: New LCR017-D (or Yishun R1058-D)
Hey guys me again. I have almost decided on my choice, and my favorite is LCR017-D. There are also the Long Teng LTK266-D-SL and TFSA JH-35 in my shortlist t, but both are more expensive ($1300-$1500 incl. shipping to EU) and, to be honest, I like them less, even though they have the geometry of the Tarmac SL8 and both weigh around 700g, probably about 100-150g less than the LCR017-D. Adding spacers is a problem you can easy solve. I think each one can have a different feeling becasue each one has different body measurements. It depends on your frame size, body size and your usual bike geometry. If you have to add 4 or more cm of spacers maybe it's not best frame for you. bikegeocalc.com will help you October 28, 2025, 03:34:15 AM |

Re: INCOLOR Voyager (45mm clearance, all-road geometry)
I bought this frame in size 51 with the same paint color from https://underdogscycling.cc/ (amazing service and communication by the way), and received it last week. I might be one of the first people to get one! The frame, painted and fitted with bolts but without any accessories (UDH mount, front derailleur mount, etc.), weighs 952 grams. I haven’t had the chance to build it yet, but I have to say, Incolor is on another level. From the way they packaged the frame to the included accessories, manuals, frame quality, and attention to every little detail, it’s all excellent. It honestly makes me want to buy their road frame next, now that I’ve seen how good their quality is. For reference, I’ve also bought the Lightcarbon LCR018-D, LT GV201, and Spcycle G058. Don’t get me wrong, the LCR018 was great quality (though I haven’t finished that build yet), but Incolor’s attention to detail really sets it apart from the others. November 05, 2025, 03:08:57 PM |

Re: Magene P515 PES Spider Powermeter
Does anyone know if the L/R balance is reliable? Thinking of getting a left side only assioma pro mx for my gravel bike, since the values I get on L/R from the P515 is almost always 50/50. But if the data is not good then I might reconsider. No - no spider power meter can provide accurate L/R balance data - it is inherent in the design. Spider PMs do it by estimating from push and pull, but it doesn't truly know left from right. December 01, 2025, 02:52:35 AM |

Re: XM Carbon Speed - "Gran Tourismo" Frameset
sponsored video, or he gets a "Special" edition frame, so don't believe everything these youtubers say Yes, People who have the items in hand can tell the grapes are sweet or sour  You can check out more reviews on this frameset in this thread, and I have said about random frame or other items sent to those youtubers, since I am confindent on our products quality, either frameset or wheelset, even other components, we don't have to send special edition products for review, otherwise might have got a lot of warranty issues. But have you seen any bad quality warranty issues on our product? We take good care of our clients even just small issue, anyway, thanks for your concern.

Re: Leoseek power meter spider - USB-C charging
More established Chinese brand can't make a reliable power meter, damn even Shimano failed to deliver one. And you guys expect some ranom Chinese AliExpress brands to provide one for 200$. Tell me about being delusional...

Re: Leoseek power meter spider - USB-C charging
To be fair, the Geoid PM500 (a rebranded Magene P515) works perfectly and includes a crank in that price. Not wild to think that other brands might also be able to do it. Magene is the only Chinese brand that managed to produce a reliable power meter. And geoid is budget Magene sub brand January 24, 2026, 11:28:16 AM |

Re: XMCS: 2026 Aero and Allround road frames
Nice to see the first actual photos. Looks great! I hope to place an order later in the year when small becomes available. Can I check if you will be posting from NL or the good are delivered from China to the customer? I ask because I am in the UK, so posting from the NL more likely to result in high customs charges vs receiving direct from China. So for UK customers it may make sense to order direct from XMCS… We can do both, but for UK you may just as well order with XMCS/Peter directly. Only benefit if you order with me is that regardless of the way of shipping, we are your contact point if there is an issue, or if you need to ship back something for warranty/repairs. Given the high quality standard of XMCS this shouldn't happen much anyway. February 05, 2026, 04:56:23 AM |

Re: XMCS: 2026 Aero and Allround road frames
Any details on the seatpost for the aero frame - will there be setback options or just one option? If so, what is the setback? Haven’t seen/heard about a setback option yet. February 05, 2026, 05:13:45 AM |
