Road Bike Frames, Wheels & Components / Re: New Frame: Quick AR:One
« on: November 18, 2024, 10:01:32 AM »
Watched the video and it has a low stack lower than an SL8 which I rode a 54cm which is M in an AR and the stack is lower by 8mm! defo would have to go far a large. He said it is a race bike and not particularly comfortable. $2k seems to be the norm now for these Chinese frames, i am still looking at a T1550 or maybe an SLC3. My winter bike is the SLC2.0
Anyone pulled the trigger? harlequins paint does look good!

prefer this new finish however looking for this in DUB spindle also advertising 320grams seem to be getting heavier this cranks. Obviously Ti will be slightly heavier anyone have a DUB at 320g?

Very nice! Who's the seller exactly? I made a list in the sellers section of the forum of sellers of fakes and so far I black listed all of them.
I'm considering doing a similar build assuming I can get the bike without logo and I'd then put on a vinyl ass-works logo on it because I'm an 8 year old troll at heart, like I did with my tractor.
Did you get additional photos of the inside of the frame?
The frame weight is impressive, how much did you pay for the frame exactly?
Is there any area, especially the down tube, where you can flex the frame with your hand? Apparently the down tube of the new ostro vam flexes like that (and same on at least one frame of the LC 17D).

Ass-works... Or maybe sex-works? There are two sides on a bike after all. Or only-fans. The Factor font was easy enough to hack, the specialized one should be similar if not easier.

Airwolf do SL8 replica as well as the dogma F and the gen 7&8 Madone just up on there website and I'm suprised it has not been shut down!
 I have emailed them about the madone and the are also an OEM for smaller less well known brands, so how they get away with it is beyond me,

I have an SL8 but this is so tempting but Im to sensible and well the though of descending on one does not appeal to me!

There is  always one saddo on the forum I
‘It’s Indonesian’  small mistake but most people with sense know what I’m
Getting at.

Alway look at the Asian frames but never buy to much doubt would rather spend twice as much for piece of mind.

To much rush may go  Winspace either T1550 or maybe SLC3, this will also be my autumn winter bike unless I can pick up a tarmac pro SL8 on a good deal

Be great of there was kind of league table of brands

I have pushed the button on Cybrei lots of race teams use and if its good enough for Pogacar!
Cybrei are due to release 24mm and Eiliee have an updateD 24mm due the X Trecneto I think its called, and Lexon also have a 24mm on the way.
Not all made in the same factory but someone has stolen the design obviously.
Considered the Lexon and RockBros but not worth the headache and potential injuries  save a few quid if it goes wrong IMO

Been told that Cybrei is not made in same factory however it is clear they are all using the same design  ;D
I considered these cheaper brands RockBros and Lexon but I have gone with Cybrei, lots of race teams using also Pogacar using them on his TT bike plus customer service

I like the look of the arow and its getting a reaming on YouTube.
Seem like a hefty price for basically an unknow Brand, plus resale is like to be less than half the  value
Should be in the $1200 bracket no more.
I have an SL8 and my other bike is a Winspace SLC2.0 this I want to change as I may race again next year and I need something I can race and afford to crash  ;D

Everyone need to take a chill pill.
Thought a forum was to help people as well as opinions and information exchange.
Not oine for 'knock offs' myself as not worth the risk bit for quality chinese products yes.
Panda Podium do a quality Carbon saddle manufactured by Pardus @65g $229USD and you get to keep your teeth

The ones you linked are 1x and the teeth are also carbon so there a waste of money


Ok link deleted. Seem like they are Brompton only, shame looked promising. 

Will consider the Cybrei rings, asked why they have paired 54 with 38t and they said for climbing.
IMO that's what 52/36 and 50/34 are for,  54-38 is a bit of a jump.
Rather have there meta aero rings in 54/40  ::)

« on: August 06, 2024, 08:09:48 AM »
Anyone know who manufactures the Unionjack carbon chain rings?
Seen them on Aliexpress reviews look good and yes they look like Carbon Ti but i need 110BCD 4 arm

I have used carbon Ti on DA 12 speed and shifting is good.
Also considering Cybrei but I need someone who knows what the shifting is like

I use Ridenow myself still have to check tire pressure before rides as they do lose a little. I also treat them as single use I find the repair patches at cr@p and don't adhere to well.
