Frames I've seen around these forums:
Velobuild R265
Yishun R1058/Light carbon Light carbon LCR017-D
R1058
Yishun R086D
(My apologies if this has been discussed ad nauseam).
I'm looking for a modern carbon road frame for a 193cm tall rider (6ft 3), who I'd usually suggest a 60/61cm frame, with a stack height in the 615 mm ballpark. Rider is new to road cycling, so the geometry shouldn't be too aggressive.
So far I've only seen the the TanTan/Seraph TT-X34. Are there any other Chinese companies offering frames that big?
Thanks.
Mine had a huge gap, too. Until the headset was compressed and it went away entirely.Thanks mate, no play at all. I've had too much compression, so that the first plastic bearing cover got stuck on the frame, now it works perfectly.
If you've sanded it, might be worth checking that you're getting enough compression and your fork isn't knocking. Hold the front brake and move the bike back and forth and make sure there is no play.
Shipping cost is from china or did you order from yishun gmbh as i saw you're in europe?Shipping costs from China. you could order via the German entity but this would cost you more for the parts due to different taxes as yishun would ship from China to their entity then forwarding it towards you.
Can you potentially put 32 tires or 30 is the max as advertised?
By the way i'm waiting for the first ride review of this frame
Like the breakdown of parts that you've used and the wheelset. I already have a Yishun agent (Melinda) and she's really nice and helpful. I ordered R086D and RSL50D wheelset from her.Got you:
Would you mind telling us what the final price of the frame (+paint+shipping) was?
Do you have a build breakdown? That's a beautiful bike! That was my first choice from Yishun but the size that I want was not available
That is what I am expecting, too. As said, I am new to internal cable routing and I might have made a mistake but this looks strange. Had already funny pictures in my head what I could have done wrong with the washer or the bearing
Ideally, I will disassemble the headset today and double-check.
@Sakizashi: The "grinding paste" is a fair point. Especially if the gap remains as seen on the pictures, regular checking of the headset unit will be necessary. I would not have used grease on lower parts of the bike anyway. Stem and handlebars were my main thought.
Do they accept paint scheme now?
for your information.
I ordered this morning the super-light version
and I'm really looking forward to it.
So far, I am very impressed with my contact: Wendy.
Very very fast. Very professional and attentive. and she seems to have a clue.
Also with my desired paint job, it was much easier and faster than with ICAN.
I was pestered with questions and had exact ideas about the design and was very precise... and everything was answered quickly, friendly and well.
