They all seem to come out the same factory as the Tavelo and Adapt so very similar design wise, also if you look for "state bicycle phil gaimon" you will see that State American brand is using the SC-R55D and Phil Gaimon praised the frame (not that it says a lot), but with luck we might be able to see the frame get into the wind tunnel.

There you have the price:

SC-R55D frame + fork + seatpost: US$660/set
SC-RH02 handlebar + stem: US$150/pcs
Thru axles: US$20/set (front and rear)
NO.55R headset: US$30/set
Shipping cost: US$140 (duty-free)
PayPal fee: US$48
The total is US$1048.

Btw I also was contemplating the frames you mentioned, but settled on the SC-R55D since it had the designed I liked the most, the weight and the build quality all seemed to be on the higher end.
Regarding the paint I do believe they do custom paints but you need to ask.

Not too bad, ill check that frame out then, thanks for the reply.

On a side note, i checked Winspace's website, and they currently have the Agile+handlebars for 1200$, provided you use a discount code (Ive used Patrick Linos here). Its a very compelling option, and i might just go for it.

Or you can get the R088 https://it.aliexpress.com/item/1005008125947180.html, I've been using it for over a year with about 10k km pretty happy with that

If I were to go back I would consider something like Tavelo Arrow or Quick Pro, I find it a bit difficult not to have brands on the bike and every time I have to answer the question "but what model is your bike?"

I would also buy a Tavelo Arrow, Quick pro or Winspace, but the money isnt there unfortunately (

Max budget for frame and handlebars is about 1200$ all included paint, shipping ect.

How was the buying process for your RO88? Im interested.

Hello everyone,
I need some input on deciding between a few framesets. This will be my first modern road bike, and I’m just looking for an entry into the road bike world again. The bike will be used in flat and windy Denmark, so I wanted to hear which one of these framesets you would recommend for my use case.

1.   Seraph / Tan Tan TT-x68
I’ve generally heard good stuff about this frame, but on the contrary, I’ve heard that customer support is not as good, and QC on this frame can be lacking. So, is this true? As I don’t want to have to take the frame to a store to have the frame faced and chased. What are people’s experiences this this frame?

2.   Light Carbon LCR017-D
From what I’ve read and seen Light Carbon tend to have better QC, and therefore a better-quality frame and build experience, but I feel like there are lack of reviews on how the frame rides. I doubt that it is slower than any of these frames listed here, but it would be nice to know how it does in compared to other frames.

3.   Hygge model S (Updated EPS version)
This was the frame I initially had my eyes on, but its only because it is subjectively a very good-looking frame, visually speaking. As far as I have read, there have been some problems here and there with the headset expander and etc, but it seems largely resolved now. So, is this frame any good in compared to the others here?

These are the frames I’m looking at right now. I am open to other frames, but as you may have noticed all these frames have a threaded BB. Frames like the ICAN A9 and Elves Falth Pro were also on my list but got cut due to being press fit. Is this really an issue though? Have people found the holes on these frames built with good enough tolerances? And should I also reconsider press fit frames?

I look forward to the responses.
Best regards, Bike Enjoyer.
