There's a deal for Ridley Noah Disc 3.0 for 2.8k USD. I think I would just take that if there's no progressive Chiner Frame on the horizon

Well Pardus also makes frames for Ridley and Merckx though I'm sure there's more. Pardus SPKG4 evo is interesting but it's 3k usd

You can contact Livia at [email protected] . She is also from Adapt. A member already bought from her as he was directed to chainbicycle by Allyn (from Adapt)

Edit: Here's the member who got the DP-B02 from Chainbicycle thru Livia

Forgive me for reviving this thread, but for anyone who is interested on getting DP-B02, a member got it from this site. https://chainbicycle.com/ Basically, Adapt's B2C arm since Livia is the contact.

Idc if it is an SL9 copy or not as long as it has progressive geometry... which is very to be unlikely, but we'll see.

Looks like the fork is more deeper than lightcycling rf10. If general consensus is good, i might just get frame instead of wait for Tagoola's frame development

Imagine you have a new bike part(shorter cranks/new saddle/new shoes) and it requires your saddle to go up but you can't because you've cut the seat mast too low already....

What turns me off is the seat mast. Don't want that shit to become a trend lol

Does it have Geometry chart?

Quote from: toxin on October 19, 2026, 08:17:55 AMI am afraid we might all be yelling into the void here, considering they've already done tooling and are in the prototyping phase

I hope they can still consider the suggestions that we shared. I held my new project for now because I am still trying to find a decent Chinese frame with progressive geometry, and I believe that it will just be around the corner

Thanks for all that you do! Forum looks good on mobile now!

PP Joe has hinted that there's a steep STA bike coming from china this year. I'm waiting ro see if that's any good.

The way you *might* get some OEM to make a bike like this is basically by doing as much free labour as you can for them. Market research showing there's interest in the concept, showing you have a platform to market the product, concept drawings, geometry tables, etc.

Hopefully, the price would be affordable. Ranges between 1k to 2k usd. Makes me feel glad that I haven't got money yet so I can wait for Chinese frames with modern/progressive geometry

Looks like this will not bode well to the likes of Serge_K and some few members here.

• Which sizes would you want first? Size 52 or 54, depends on the geometry. Usually, I range between 540 to 550 stack and 380 to 390 reach.


• What matters most to you in a frame? Modern/Progressive Geometry, steep seat tube angles, long FC and WB, just like Merckx 525r
• What tire width do you usually run on the road? 35c
• What would you most like to see in the next update: photos, weight, or test results? Photos and Geometry chart

They are currently on a long holiday so it may take a while
