but yes.

The clamping seems to be different, that's true.
They even both use the same pictures (just retouched a little differently) for the Colnago :D

"The One": https://de.aliexpress.com/item/1005003968726979.html?gatewayAdapt=glo2deu
"T-One" (without Logo): https://de.aliexpress.com/item/1005006732753564.html?srcSns=sns_WhatsApp&spreadType=socialShare&bizType=ProductDetail&social_params=60867647477&aff_fcid=c8f15d096de447dba62e6aeb52e620a2-1731595295568-01522-_Eybz7kH&tt=MG&aff_fsk=_Eybz7kH&aff_platform=default&sk=_Eybz7kH&aff_trace_key=c8f15d096de447dba62e6aeb52e620a2-1731595295568-01522-_Eybz7kH&shareId=60867647477&businessType=ProductDetail&platform=AE&terminal_id=9fa1dad5ab7e4abb987ff9d3079ba881&afSmartRedirect=y

But the geometry seems to be identical.

But the "T-ONE" is even available in 36cm width  :)



and the KOCVLEO too

apparently you can also order it without the logo

385gr in 400x90mm... Why you say it is heavier???
99% sure these are all the same handlebars.



The article description of the KOCEVLO says 520g ;)

i don't have a stem because i have the merida team cockpit on my bike.

I would therefore also want to replace this with another complete cockpit.

I really like the “the one”. I found it from another seller on aliexpress under three different names.

https://a.aliexpress.com/_EyAKwSz
https://a.aliexpress.com/_Eybz7kH
https://a.aliexpress.com/_EJixcyp

According to the seller, they all come from the same factory as “the one” - just with the synchros logo or without the logo.
i have to say, the communication was very difficult. he answered in chinese and it was translated by aliexpress...

He also recommended an adapter so that the handlebars fit properly:

Is it really necessary? and is it also suitable for a scultura? it only says reacto...

The One aero cockpit will fit your Merida just fine.

The One aero cockpit would really be my pain threshold in terms of price.

do you also have it on a Merida, or how do you know that it fits perfectly?

Road Bike Frames, Wheels & Components / Merida Scultura/Reacto integrated cockpit alternative ?
« on: November 13, 2024, 07:33:24 AM »
Hello everyone,

I will be riding for a racing team in the 2025 season. We have already been fitted with Merida Scultura bikes. However, the bike currently has a truck handlebar with a width of 42 or 44 cm. It is the Merida Team SL Cockpit.

Too bad to replace it, but it's just way too wide. I need a 36 or 38 cm Cockpit.

We will have to pay for replacement components ourselves. Unfortunately, I'm not prepared to spend 450 euros on a Vision Metron 5d.

Unfortunately, the Airwolf cockpit doesn't fit properly and I don't want a DIY solution...

Do you have a solution?

Thank you in advance.

same frame and UCI-approved.
The UCI certification is simply due to the brand...

Same frame and not UCI approved.
In Germany, the Leeze factory team still rides with these parts in the amateur and elite amateur classes and nobody has ever been interested.

Does Lightcarbon now sell the frame to other brands as well?

Has anyone been able to discover it yet?

I bought and assembled a cheap (13€) BB from Zitto from AliExpress. Thought about testing it and if it is bad replacing it with something more expensive.

My problem was, that the T47 BBs are pretty rare in the german shops and also very expensive.

So far the quality of the Zitto BB is seems great! The bearing felt good and the cranks are spinning very, very free and well. Also no play in the crank/BB so far.

So cheap must not be bad. But I only have like 300km on the bike yet.

I also bought a cheap Scenicx from aliexpress: https://de.aliexpress.com/item/1005005443737998.html?spm=a2g0o.order_list.order_list_main.133.78ff5c5fYtLnV1&gatewayAdapt=glo2deu

It has now covered 2,200 km and I have no problems whatsoever.

It would be an inner celebration for me to be able to build a Chinese gravel bike now, after I have already been able to build and review two road bikes (Aero and Allrounder) thanks to the forum <3

Hello everyone,

a short update on my experiences with the LCR017-D in combination with the Elite Edge 45 mm.

I have just returned from my 1-week training camp in Mallorca and after almost 1,000 km and thousands of meters of altitude, I am more than happy to have built this bike.
It just feels right and is a true all-rounder.
At the front in the wind in the group on the flat - up the mountains - down the mountains. There is nothing to complain about.

Here are a few pictures from Mallorca.

At first I had the feeling that I was sitting too stretched out and I moved the saddle completely forward.
Somehow everything seemed longer than I thought...
In the meantime I have moved the saddle back a bit and feel very comfortable in my current position.

I was initially thinking about ordering a 10 cm stem - but I have now discarded that idea.

The bike is really fun, especially on undulating / hilly or mountainous courses.

How did you calipers align?  Seems that the facing of the mounting areas on the rear chain stay and front fork is nil.

that went quite normally and without any problems
