Chinese carbon frame now

There are clones of Crux 5? A friend of mine was interested in a similar looking frame

on wechat group they are selecting betatesters for the PP6. I registered a few days ago, but Im not sure if they accept non chinese people.

bought by Colnago 

I just noticed on geometry chart that they updated the weight. 780 g for 490 size. In a previous chart it was more

what height are you?
Trying to figure out my size for 175cms height.

I'm 170 and I choose 49. My saddle height is 67 cm from BB, so I was in doubt if to go on 460, but I would have to use handlebar spacers. I hope to can use the 490 without any spacer.

So you can get one in raw carbon without the logo?

I didnt ask about no logo, I mean I opted for standard graphic. They are open to color change and customizations paying for it and with longer times.

I recognize your name from RFD! Lol

You can purchase the frame directly on Alibaba. They will send an invoice.

Here was mine:

ACE3 Carbon frame Red & orange : US$535/set (extra $20 for the paint color)
Thru axle : US$5
Bottom bracket : US$15
DDP shipping : US$230

Total amount US$785

Production time estimate is around 2 months, and shipping time approx 10-12 business days.

yes, alibaba directly!
same for me. But I opted for standard raw carbon

they confirmed stack is 524 on 490. Based on this and on the cheap price I ordered the frame

The stack seems to be measured to the top of the stem. This is quite normal for chinese manufactured bikes with this type of design. I think the actual stack would be around 20 or 30mm lower, depending on the "thickness" of the stem. And then on top of that will be the rise of the handlebar. But more information from the manufacturer would be helpfull.

Seller said is not on the top of the stem. But between stem and fork. So she's asking to engieneer team is it's correct.

That's true! I didnt notice it on the little pic...

Im trying to understand frame geometyt, isnt frame stack too much big compared to headtube lenght? at least for what the geometry chart says... using bikegeocalc.com they seems wrong

It would be more elegant to say that they increased price by 300$ and that custom paint was free.

it seems only to me SL9 inspired dhape?
