For me, the VRT in gloss black with riser handlebar works out to be $2173 delivered. Whereas lightcarbon have quoted me $1050 for the LCR020 with the riser handlebar. That's double the cost.
That's true, I only looked at the price on the website and didn't notice that the handlebar and shipping costs weren't included. We are closer to €2,000 now, which is starting to be quite a budget.
As for the Lightcarbon, I was quoted $1,200 yesterday (including shipping and the handlebar). It remains my top choice, but I prefer to look around a bit to see what I can get for less and whether the extra investment is really worth it.

You should also take a look at the Voice Velo Echo

And feel free to get in touch with Dominik from https://thebikelab.pl/ 😉

Oh Nice, I’ll get in touch. What is the reputation of this brand? I don't know them at all, unlike the others which I had already heard of.

frames. I don't really mind them being replicas, but I assume that if the price is lower, the bikes might also be of lower quality compared to the Lightcarbon or VRT?
Yes, I had seen the VRT and forgot to add it to the list, of course. Especially since it seems to be priced around the same (or nearly the same) as the Lightcarbon.

Road Bike Frames, Wheels & Components / New aero frame
« on: July 09, 2026, 02:59:14 PM »
Hello,

I am looking for a new frameset to switch things up a bit from my current setup.
Right now, I ride an Elves Falath Evo+ in size 54 and a 2021 Giant TCR Advanced SL in size S. The Giant fits me well (maybe a touch small), while the Elves is a bit too large. I am looking for a bike that is quite aero but versatile enough to replace both of my current bikes with just one (for road racing, cyclosportives, mountain trips, etc.). It is worth noting that I live in a rather rolling, punchy region with no major climbs (Brittany, France).

I really like the look of the Elves (much more than the TCR), so I would like to go for a frame with a distinct aero style, but I still want something snappy and responsive. For now, I have narrowed down my choice to:
 Seraph X70 or X71: I am leaning more towards the 71, but I am having a hard time seeing the difference between the two models.
 Lightcarbon LCRD-018D: But I am not a big fan of the frame shape.
 Lightcarbon LCRD-020D: I was quoted $1,280 shipped for this one.
 Avenger R8-RS
 Triaero A9
 XMCS VRT

I am a bit lost regarding the brand hierarchy and the different frame geometries. Which one do you think would be the best fit for me? Also, did I miss any frame that I should consider?
Thank you in advance

Hi guys,

I’m looking for a triathlon frame and this seems to be a perfect match for me. From what I saw, Avenger (and Hongfu) does have a solid reputation, doesn’t it?

I’m just a bit confused for the frame size. I’m 175cm tall and 83cm inseam but the geometry chart is a bit wired. I don’t know witch size to take between the XS and the S one. Do you have any suggestion how to choose?

Thanks :)
