Hello, long time lurker in the forum. I'm ready to pull the trigger on two of these frames. One for my wife and one for me. Do you have an Alibaba link you buy it from, or should I just send an email to the OP David at [email protected]?
Enjoy life and make a better world for everyone.

I got it directly from Aliexpress https://it.aliexpress.com/item/1005008658363510.htm, I don't know if you can also find it on Alibaba.

In my case, the communication on Aliexpress was excellent, as was the after-sales service.

Hp I have a question about the tires, I bought two Conti 5000s TR 30, how do they fit the frame? Has anyone already fitted them?

I just took my R088 to the 80km we ride Flanders and it did quite well, i am riding 32c GP5000 and i thinkk you may be able to fit 34c

Looks great.  What saddle is that on your bike, if you don't mind me asking?

Ryot Carbon Airbone i think is the model, is the full carbon cheap 3d printed fron Ryot, recommended

Very happy with them, my previous wheels were the cheapest ryet carbon in 2023 and this are a bout the same price but a lot nicer. The minor deatail is that they are not the wider newer trend

Internal channel 21C?

For my R088 I bought the Tagoola DAO Optimax Light 23C 50mm and after just over 200km I'm happy.

Question: can I install a 28" tire in the front and a 30" in the back? What does that mean for handling?

edit: The front tire is vittoria corsa in 28 and the rear is cont gp5000 str

Hi guys
Was planning to fit some 34mm external width wheels in, does anyone know if they'll fit?
TIA  :)
Bumping as Im also curious on this, and about real world tire fitment in general. Im guessing this can't handle 35s

I'll tell you in a few weeks as mines just been shipped  :)

alfiomotrambo - regards 2mm tyre difference, I'll doubt you'd even notice.

Is there anyone here with a size 58? How many spacers would you guys think is still safe?
My size 58 feels like it has the same problem that GCN had with the frame. There seems to be more movement in the head tube/handlebar than on my other bikes. Since I am still in the process of building things up I am running 6,5 cm of spacers right now; so that could also be the problem.

That's a lot of spacers!
I've got a 58 on the way,  and I'll check when it comes, but guess it'll be a couple of weeks.
To be fair, unless you're running Nicolai frame you can get things to flex in quite an alarming looking manner. GCN did a good job of scaring people I think.
They didn't stick an SL7 or 8 next to it and give it the same treatment. Just saying ;)
