HMPF - How´s it going with the build?
Very curious on the result and your opinions on the frame.

Re: Yishunbike G095D (Speed Gravel) Communication:
First of all, I would like to emphasize the very good contact with Kitty. She replies quickly and gave me very good advice when I wanted to know something about the structure. She also asked me several times how I was getting on with the frame and whether I needed anything else. I then ordered 2 more spacers, a spare derailleur hanger and an adapter so that I can attach saddles with 7 x 9 rails.

Design:
I love the design of the bike. The wide down tube with a partial D-shape. I particularly like the overhang towards the rear wheel.
The paint job is just a trial, I'll redo it in the summer.

Assembly:
The assembly worked very well. The brake lines with silencers were very easy to push through. The axle mounts are made to measure and fit perfectly.

There are good bolt-on options for the mudguards and I was able to fit them without any tinkering. However, I think the distance between the top and the tire is too big. You could use another part on the bridge of the rear triangle to bring the mudguard closer to the tire.  (And yes, the mudguards destroy the steepness of the blade-shaped seat tube)

There are only problems with the cockpit: The spacer tower twists even though the headset is adjusted and the stem is tightened. I have not yet found a solution for this.

The attachment for the seat post works very well, but the adhesive has come off the lock nut, which is not so good.


Driving behavior:
The bike is very stable, especially at high speeds from 30 km/h.

There is a small toe overlap (frame size 54/shoe size 43), but this can be eliminated when the mudguards are off.

For me, the geometry is sporty and more geared towards aerodynamics than comfort.

Equipment:
I am currently riding with the following setup:
Shifter: Red and Force
- 2 x 12 with 50/34 K-Light crank and 10-33 Force cassette
- Force rear derailleur with Gabaruk cage (not worth it for the cassette, I'll put it back)
- Rival front derailleur (has to be adjusted very carefully)
- The crank will be swapped for a Force with Sram chainrings. It's not working perfectly yet.
- Elitewheels Edge 50mm wheelset (very light and very cheap 1320 grams at 522€)
- Continental Grand Prix Urban 35mm (work perfectly for me in fall and winter when commuting)
- Toseek handlebars
- Red brake body, Dura Ace rotors (works perfectly)
- SKS Bluemels mudguards: The best, lightest and cheapest, simply trouble-free

Weight/cost:
The bike weighs 8.2Kg complete and cost 1900€. The mudguards weigh 500 grams and come off in summer.
The frame cost 844€ with all accessories (seatpost, thru axle, headset). The adapter for 7x9 rails cost 18€ and the additional spacers 5€.


pros:
- special design
- wide range of equipment options (luggage rack/mudguards/front light on the fork)
- aerodynamic
- good contact and service

cons:
- Spacer tower twists
- Data sheet no longer online (but available by email)
- unclear whether you get a frame or not

neutral:
- pressfit bearing
- proprietary seatpost

ENEP's YishunBike G095-D build thread Hello everybody!

Thought I'd share my build process of a Yishunbike G095-D. This is my first go with gravel. I've mostly been riding XC MTB last few years and also been dipping my toes in road biking. The G095 will be used for both gravel and road riding using two different wheel sets.

Here we have a size 56 Yishunbike G095-D with integrated handlebar "HB068" in 400mm width and 110mm stem. Painted glossy black by YishunBike. I bought the frame second hand locally in unused condition. Therefore can't say to much about YishunBikes pre sales support, handling and shipping. However I've been in touch with Kitty from YishunBike for some after sales support like spareparts and another handlebar. Kitty's is great to deal with, excellent communication and fast replying.

Frame quality is great. I have nothing to complain about. Bearing seats in headset are beefy and look good. Bottom brackets seems to have been honed in QC. Mounting points for brakes seem to have been faced. They've also masked off important places before painting. Fork bearing seat and brake hose ports are smooth.

Weights, grams:
Frame: 1369 (including hanger, front deraillieur mount, seat post clamp)
Seat post: 167 (uncut, including hardware)
Handlebar: 393 (400x110mm, including bolts for computer mount)
Fork: 459
Thru axles: 64
Headset: 95 (compressionplug, bearing, spacers, covers)
