Is this frame aeroad inspired? Looks pretty close to me visually

Apone

It's definitely Aeroad inspired, with subtle geometry and hardware differences....

Just pull the trigger on AliExpress for a Size M Glossy Black

I'm gonna put the parts I have on a Velobuild 168, Rival AXS and CSC Wheels. Just to try a full Aero design.

Satisfied by my R065 in raw matt carbon. Magne p505 only fits with a 1mm spacer on the drive side for those who are interested.
The Spcycle handelbars looked too bulky, so I choose the Kocevlo ones which should weigh the same.
The ride is stiff and I can feel every minuscule bump on the road (also thanks to the carbon spokes on the xmcs Wheels and a carbon saddle)
Feels great on the flats, in short sprints and alright on hills, the only thing pulling this bike back on climbs would be myself.
Rode it for 2200km and only issue was the saddleclamp slipping.
In total about 8kg with bottle cages and pedals.

Looks so good IMO!
Thanks 👍 for the report and glad to know your no issues experience.

I will put my Magene p505 on my frame when I get it. Can you elaborate why it needs a 1mm spacer on the drive side? Clearance issue? Where?

I can't really describe it without an illustration, I hope this helps. But it could vary from bb manufacturer, with kactus the spacer is between the BB and Powermeter and the clearance is pretty tight.

Thank you for taking the time to explain! I will find out if it does the same with a ztto BB.

Thanks for all that have posted. There is not much info on the R065 online and I was hesitant to pull the trigger. After reading this thread many times, I placed my order via AliExpress on March 1 and it was delivered today. It was packaged nicely and I was excited to get started with the build.

I have Elite 50mm wheels with GP 5000 STR 28s and SRAM Rival AXS 2x12 ready to go on the bike.

However, issue with the fork and the bearing. The bearing does not seat all the way down. I did not want to force it as they may have sent the wrong size. I just sent a message with pics through AE and am waiting to hear back. In all fairness, this is only my second build and I could be doing something wrong. I will be visiting my LBS tomorrow to check, and to ask a few questions on some other things.

Here are some pics of the fork issue. I will post more pics in another reply.

Just received my frame, and have the same issue with the bottom fork bearing.

Could you tell me what was the solution? Just put a message to Spcycle on AliExpress.


On the other hand, frame looks so good in glossy black. Same weight, few grams of difference than my currently Velobuild 168.

Spcycle just said that the guy who sanded the fork tube, did not sand it enough around the bearing area. Just give it a shot with fine sand paper and it will fit.

Also, no clearance issue on my end with ztto BB + p505

After some messages and photos, because also have a small "booble/hole" in the fork, they are gonna send me another fork next week.

No complaints about the service. I'll update when the spare fork arrives.

I guess yes, because is a 1/2" standart Headset.

You sould write SPcycle via aliexpress, they answer fast.

It depends on what you call fit, when i tried the ACR i didn't like the gap between the top bearing cap...
