Hello,
in the gravel section, I came across some new Longteng frames and then checked out the road frames as well. On the second page, there are two new frames and an update on the 268. Also new handlebars with finally option to choose on width and length.
I haven't received any response to my inquiries to Longteng yet. Does anyone have any further information on price, release date, etc.?
Thanks

There are already one topic for each frame.

Production has not started yet.

What about RD118-D-SL?

Is it the ltd266-d-sl successor?

Interesting design, very old school. Havent seen seat stays that aren't dropped for a long time. There must be a reason why the entire industry has adopted dropped seat stays, BUT w 35C clearance, super light, and potentially timeless looks, could be a nice snappy modern & timeless bike. Not a hint of an aero feature anywhere, which is a bit of a shame though. A slim headtube would be a selling point, at least.

The geometry is completely different. 266 is shaped like a race bike. 118 is short-reach.

Digging the RD118-D-SL. Such a classic looking bike. And can fit 35mm is perfect for what I need. But the one con for me at least is the 72.5 seat tube angle in sizes medium and up. Would love to have that been 73.5 or 74.

Where did you find the geometry? The product specifications section of the website won't load on my computer.

Could you share it?

Thank you very much. It's a shame that the geometry is based on older models, with a very rear-set seat tube angle and such a high bottom bracket.
We'll keep looking for a frame with a lightweight design and progressive geometry...
