Cyclocross Frames, Wheels & Components / Re: Velobuild GF-002 convert to normal handlebar
« on: September 18, 2024, 01:08:29 AM »
I used the FIRST Components C522 headset. If your groupset is Di2, I would suggest the C522A-3, and if your groupset is mechanical, I would suggest the C522A or C522A-1.

Metal Frames / Re: Marino custom steel frames?

As for Marino Bike, I have never purchased one, but a store in Japan called Gonzo Perfomance stocks a few.
All posts are in Japanese, but you can translate and read them if you like.

Cyclocross Frames, Wheels & Components / Re: Looking for: Gravel bike big tyre clearance 60mm/2.35i
« on: January 21, 2024, 07:43:21 AM »
Hi.
I recently built a frame that can install 29x2.4 tires. I couldn't find it in a carbon frame so I built it in titanium. Boost standard + BB shell width is 73mm.

I usually use it for forest road riding and plan to use it for beach racing!
For your information.

29er / DENGFU M028
« on: April 28, 2023, 03:11:33 AM »
It seems that DENGFU is preparing a new product called M028

Suspension stroke is unknown, but it is HA65, so it looks like an enduro design. The geometry is a bit of a lie, 29er and Mallet have different RC's, etc...
The seat tube length is long, and as a short-legged Asian, it is not a candidate for me, but I think it is a good product!

Their sizing chart is a bit off.
Did you use your usual size?

I'm 177cm tall, 68kg weight.
Darevie is asia L, Spexcel is M, Swiftofo is XL I have.
Darevie and Spexcel is good fit.
I bought Swiftofo at a time when I was a bit fatter, but would choose L now!

I tried Chinese jerseys this way and that.
Darevie and Spexcel are up there in terms of features.

Swiftofo's bibs are a bit more expensive than these, but are the best quality so far.
The hem is a little long and the sunburn is noticeable when wearing other (shorter) bibs, lol.

Found this interesting post/writeup. You'll need to translate from Japanese

https://plovercycles.com/entry/cinelli_pressure_and_ican_a40

I wrote this article. I never thought the day would come when this article would be read by someone from overseas, lol.
As you can see in the link below, As you can see in the link below, Chinelli's Pressure does not have exclusive use of the molds.

(Translated)Paolo, First of all, I would like to state that "PRESSURE" is 100% Chinelli's design. However, our sales volume does not cover the full cost of the molds, so the supplier responsible for production has also made an investment. Therefore, we have a contract with other manufacturers that allows them to use our molds in return for their investment. This background may cause some misunderstanding, but Cinelli does all the design work. This information is not secret, but open. We are not secretive about this information, but we are open about it, and Francesca in the public relations department will answer any inquiries in the same way.

29er / ICAN P17(Flybike FM1266)
« on: March 28, 2022, 09:04:52 PM »
Hello.
I recently received the 2022 catalog from ICAN.

I am interested in the frame called P17.

I think it's probably FLYBIKE's FM1266, which is good news since FLYBIKE is BtoB and cannot be bought privately.

Did you see the picture a few post above?
It is another option. The ZTTO double bottle mount.
Light and inexpensive.
It keeps well the bottles, even on rough tracks.

Thank you carbonazza-san,
I already have this part, but I have some problems at field.
It is very cheap and reliable.

When I lower the saddle on the dropper seat post, my knees interfere with the bottle (this depends on the person), and the bottle gets dirty from the dirt rolling up from the ground.

The problem with LYNE is that it's expensive (LOL)

I've been riding FM936 for over a year.
I am generally satisfied with my bike, but I am not happy with the single drink bottle installation.
So, I added two bottles using parts from LYNE COMPONENTS.

https://www.on-lynecomponents.com/collections/the-holy-rail/products/holy-rail-dual-cage-kit

This frame size is M and it can insert two 550ml FLY bottles. I think this is effective for marathon competition.

Just for your reference.

Info from Thai's youtube channel
The sample bike claim weight 7.5kg (unknown size)
Frame made in Japan
Painted in Thailand (Using motorbike paint)
price at 349,000THB which is around 11,000USD

Thank you BluCheese-san,

If you want, you can give us the URL of the YouTube video.

There are very few carbon frame manufacturers in Japan and the only major company that makes bicycle frames is YONEX(Yes, the racquet manufacturer).

Kawasaki Motors Thailand has launched a new carbon road bike and an e-MTB. It's probably OEM, but I am not sure which manufacturer. Size and geometry not yet announced.
Anyone has a information?

SPEC

Did you make the purchase on the Carbonda website or through Alibaba?

Thanks for the advice.
Just when I think it's a good time to try it, since Japan is under a declared state of emergency and I can't go out :-[

I didn't have the problem with my original r8000 hanger, definitely the OSPW for me. I think we have our derailleurs on differently (not sure which way is correct. Take a look at the angle of or hangers, yours is straight while mine is at an angle. I just had a look at a mates bike that was built by a professional mechanic and his is also angled. It may be something for you to look at. Remove derailleur, rotate backwards and tighten it up again.
