Cyclocross Frames, Wheels & Components / Re: Spcycle New Mold G068 Carbon Gravel Frame

Guys, have you seen a new iteration of G068 frame? Namely G069. It seems to have different fork:

Thank you Frnchy,

I already have G056 frame for over 2 years - no complaints, but I would like to try something new. I tried a friend's grail slx in size M (I'm 180 5'11") and suprisingly it was good size for me, but what I noticed most was the exceptionally good power transfer - way better than my G056. The real grail has a major flaw to me - max tire size is 42 mm in the rear. That's why I think G068 is better construction as I ride mostly on 45c tires

@frnchy How do you like riding quality of the frame? Is the power transfer ok? In other word is it stiff enough to build a fast bike?

Can you share some pics? What size did you get?


Size Medium + 420/100 mm handlebar. I'm 5'11" or 180cm with 83 cm inseam. I've choose medium because it's close to my carbonda 696 in 54 cm size.

Opening holes in the frame down tube requires modifying the frame mold. This is cumbersome. We designed this headset cover. So the frame can achieve semi-internal cable routing.

Hi, I bought your frameset via Aliexpress. Looks really nice. Can't wait for build and firs ride.

What is the max size of chainring for 1x drivetrains?

I opened the dispute for the second time, as I couldn't reach an agreement with the seller. I asked for 50 USD refund and they do not responded. Aliexpress agreed to to this and I waiting for ~ 50 usd of refund.

As I remember my bearing was sitting much deeper onto the cone, +/- in halfway of its height. You have wrong sized bearing. Did you tried to change with the upper one? Mine both bearings were the same size.

I had a problem with not enough stack height of bearings/ upper cone. The headset cover came into a contact with frame head first and as a result fork developed play. I ve made a 3mm spacer and it fixed everything.

Do you have any photos of the area on the steerer where your lower bearing would sit?

No I did not take any photos of that area as I assumed that everything is ok. The fork has an integraded lower racecrown (its a carbon conical area) and I just placed a bearing on it and that's all. I have the same solution in my Giant TCR ad. 2021.

Yesterday we have first ultra short ride on a bicycle lane. Still got no bar tape and some final touches. Bike feels ok, size I think is spot on.

I just forgot to add in previous post that tire clearance is max 45c (I think it is no ISO approved) but anything larger than 45C would not fit.

Hi guys, the frame arrived 10. february after one month and 4 days to Poland. I have some problems with it. After first raw assembly there was a play in the headset.  I think there was missing a spacer that should be 3 mm of thickness. The integradted cable routing is real pain in ass. I will never get into it next time ;) The size S seem to be ok for 160 cm tall girl with longish legs. We have 360/70 bar stem combo. If you have any questions please ask me :)

Hi,

it's my first post here so I would like to say hello :)

I also ordered this frame from RYET shop (I think ist spinoff of Lexon shop from aliexpress). The frame set plus handlebar in size S for my long legged girlfriend with handlebar 360mm and 70 mm stem. The package was sent on 6. january and the current status is that is awaiting for flight in Hongkong. I'm from Poland.

Best regards
