Road Bike Frames, Wheels & Components / Re: ICAN triaero A9

Yes you are right about the chain. The OSPW only has one option for spring tension and it is too loose. If I shorten the chain to increase the tension then it skips in the 28 cog. I haven't had any chain drop or shifting issues, it just looks a bit slack. I am eyeing up the KCNC OSPW, looks really well made.

I had the same thing happen with my R8000 RD. Personally I think there is a problem with the design; the mounting angle of the RD is too far forward.

So I replaced the RD's chain tension screw with a longer screw. The symptoms improved.

I didn't buy that bike, but...

A teammate of mine is considering buying one and inquired about it in September. At that time, the tire width was 25C, and we were told it would be 28C by the end of the year. The bikes were VANYAR disc and FALATH disc.

Just FYI.

I was expecting it to be a bit lighter, a sub 7kg disc must be expensive.
If I break my road bike, this is a serious option.
Thank you for the information !

Due to the integrated design of the AeroRoad bike, the handlebars and seatpost cannot be changed, so if you're aiming for less than 7kg, you'll need the following component configuration. As a prerequisite, the group set should be a mechanical Ultegra.

Wheels: under 1200g
Cassette: 175g DA
Saddle: 130g or less
Brake Rotors: 214g XTR
Tires: as light as possible

Wheels that fit the requirements are especially expensive. If the group set is Dura-Ace, you may have an easier shot at it.

Very nice bike! The painting is great.
Did you weight the frame, fork, bar and post?


Thank you carbonazza-san, Matt_C-san,

The weight
Frame : 1176g(with hangers, without TA)
Fork : 408g(uncut)
Seatpost : 270g(uncut)
Handlebars: 360g(witdh 400mm, stem length 100mm)
Headset : 153g(without spacers)
Fron TA : 64g
Rear TA : 75g

The TA has a lever, which I thought would be a disadvantage in terms of aerodynamics, so I changed to a flat type.
The flat TA was approx 40g.

Hello. I just got an ICAN A9 the other day and assembled it. The accuracy of the frame was very good.
I won't go into impressions as I haven't run much distance yet, but the flats are as fast as the Bullet Train.

The routing took a lot of time, as did the FSA ACR.

FYI.
Size: 52 (I am 177cm tall, and 82cm inseam)
Group set: Ultegra 8020 (crankset with power meter 6800)
Wheels: Carbonal Tubular Wheels 50mm deep
 Weight: 7.3kg (without pedals and bottle cages)

Hello.

I will add two models.

yishunbike RXS-D

superroadbikes R06
https://www.superroadbikes.com/long-distance-carbon-cx-frame-racing-700c-frame-road-bike-disc-brake-stickers-superroad-carbon-cx-frameset_p128.html


This is a great list. I am also thinking of assembling a disc road.
I bought a Carbonda MTB last year. The quality was good, and the after-sales service was also good. However, CFR515-D is quite heavy, so I've removed it from my purchase.

My WCB-M-062(MTB) frame doesn't want to die despite lots of abuses.
And will retire as my home trainer bike.
However from the experience of some other here, when things go wrong, it looks Workswell after sale service is quite bad.

Thank you carbonazza-san,

I searched the site with the keyword "workswell", but no information came up.
Thanks for the information, I wonder if workswell's products are of lower quality?

Road Bike Frames, Wheels & Components / Workswell wcb-r-268
« on: May 18, 2020, 07:42:53 PM »
Hello.

The other day I received a notice from WORKSWELL for a frame called WCB-R-268.
 
 Aero frame
 Frame weight 1120g(lightweight version 980g)
 disc brake
 Integrated stem/handlebar
 drop-sheet stay
 Maximum tire clearance 32C

It looks like a very good frame.
The geometry looks the same as Aquila's EVO.

Has anyone bought one?

Hi, first post here and I'm interested in this frame as a do it it all trail and xc bike.

Those of you who have one, what shock and tune have you gone with and how does it ride? Looking at the photo from Pinkbike it looks like the stock NS Bike is shipped with the following tune:
2020 Series Float Trunnion
2020, FLOAT DPS, F-S, K, Remote Down, Trunnion, Evol LV, PTU, NS Bikes, Synonim, 165, 42.5, 0.6 Spacer, DCM, DRM, CMF, Neutral Logo

It's there an equivalent Rockshox tune? (MM I'm guessing)
The new 35mm SID looks ideal for this frame.

Hello. I am assembling the suspension for this bike in the following configuration.
F fork:SR Suntour AXON34 Boost RLRC-PCS DS 15QLC2-110 29'' 120mm
R-Shock:SR Suntour Edge RLRC 2-Position Lockout, 165*40mm

I have only ridden at once in the trail, but I am generally satisfied with this configuration.

>The new 35mm SID looks ideal for this frame.
I agree completely!

Since the head angle is quite slack, when the R-shock moves on the climb, the handling is quite stagnant.
The lockout function on the R-shock is a must, and a lever that allows you to lock out the front and rear with just one lever is useful.

I hope you find it helpful.

What type of frame cable guide came with the FM936 purchaser?

I first came with a guide for two lines. I contacted the manufacturer and found that they also had three lines in stock.
The other day I received the guides for three lines. This is necessary for those who lock out R shocks. If you don't have a guide for 3 lines, you can contact them.

I bought this frame the other day.
It size is M and I am 177 cm tall.
I also had it painted.

I'm 1cm taller but with long legs... and considering the M too
What stem length did you choose?

Is it the normal or the lighter one ?
Did you weight the frame painted ?
Nice color :)

I have short legs :'(
My position, the length from bb to saddle top is 680mm.
The stem length is 45mm, and handlebar width 700mm, There is no discomfort in town riding.

It is normal weight, but sorry I dont weighed it.

It uses Shimano / Sram mix components, SR Suntour 120mm boost fork and SR Suntour trunnion mount 165mm x 40mm R shock units.
The wheelset is hand assembled by me, XT hubs and Carbon Rims.  And It equipped GIANT dropper seatpost 125mm.
The bike weight is just 12 kilograms without pedals, and bottle cage.

There was no major problem with the assembly.
The assembly work went very smoothly.

I haven't ride on the trail yet, but I'm going to the trail on February so I want to write my impressions.
