What do you guys think about running the new UDH version of SP M05 with a 120mm fork? It would just make it a bit slacker and shorten the reach, yeah?

Could someone that built this up confirm actual rear travel please?

Really like this frame, but is that a straight steerer tube? Doesn't look tapered .. it's 2024 :-)

« on: November 12, 2022, 12:41:23 PM »I think you'd have to be crazy given the great Chinese options on the market, with proven designs, performance and build quality, for much lower prices, and without the Lexon cloud hanging over them.
As I said before, there will be other Scott Spark '23 clones / inspired-by frames, from better sellers with a more transparent OEM (Lexon just claim they make and design everything - they certainly don't).
RDY, what would you recommend for 120-130 rear travel? I am browsing up and down the forum (new to this) and unsure of quality.. thanks.

Road Bike Frames, Wheels & Components / Re: Velobuild VB-R-168 Frame
« on: September 16, 2021, 10:00:06 AM »
Hey guys, first post. Looking for a size recommendation with this frame before I order. I am 5'8" on a 54 Cannondale Supersix Evo right now, with 100mm stem, 0 offset seatpost.
VBR-168 has a 4mm longer reach, but effective top tube is 4mm shorter. Good there. However VBR-168 has that 20mm offset seatpost, so that will throw things off. Contemplating ordering a 52, but not sure how the much lower stack height on the 52 will come into play. Appreciate the advice!
