Does anyone has a recent order from Waltly? I'm browsing for a new frame and a titanium road bike sounds wonderful!

I received mine in April. It's been great so far, but definitely went through a bit of a learning processes when building up the frame!

There's also a fairly active subreddit fyi.

Does anyone have a WhatsApp contact to Waltly?

Nope.  Although Whatsapp is a secure app.  I don't trust using Whatsapp for doing business with foreign companies and people I don't know.

When I dealt with Waltly, I E-mailed back and forth with Sumi to communicate.  This worked out well for me.

Edit:  I was invited by Waltly to let them communicate via Whatsapp, (along with other companies in the past), I deleted the invitation.

Hm ok. I usually do business with China via WhatsApp. Much easier. I am waiting for the email reply from Waltly.

Do you have maybe a mail address available? I used the contact form.

Ask for the frame drawing that shows the tire clearance.   (I presume you are not having a custom frame fabricated?)

Yes, Sumi send one. I still need to know the max chainring size

So as Waltly not really intend to sell me a frame, I switched over to Ti-Bikes.com and ordered a custom 3D printed frame.

How much was it shipped with ti-bikes? What kind of frame?

Quote ist 2600 USD but with frame, fork, ti rack and ti axles. Geometry is custom, still finalising

So frame drawing finalized, its a mix between a Tritao Aveiro and a BMC Kaius. 410 reach, 597 stack with 700x58 tyre clearance with 48T chainring.

Any update on this project? I am considering a custom Ti gravel bike for myself, and I want those exact specs (not the geo, but 2.25" tire clearance and 48T chainring).

Waiting for an update of the production. Timeline was 4-5 weeks.
