It would be a poor copy of the Y5RS as its pretty easy to spot the differences, beyond the paintjob.

Road Bike Frames, Wheels & Components / New Sp Cycle R098 frame
March 02, 2026, 06:22:22 AM
Hi.
I built an SP Cycle R088 last September, and another one for my wife during Christmas.
I love my bike and has approx. 2.000km on it so far without any major issues.
I have actually had more problems with my store bought bikes from Ridley.
Today, I discovered the new R098 from Sp Cycle.
Does anyone have any knowledge to the differences?
I might be off, but the geometry seems similar and the weight is similar.

Thinking of buying another frame or two this spring.
