dcrf26 frame - Scott Foil?

[madmax]

Still looking forward to a community inspired bike frame, i.e. "ChinerTown" (...to agree on a suitable name) official frame with UCI certification, on which all our needs are met 

Scott Foil -> Orginal

Irish Toil  -> Replica

 

[Velovelo]

That would be awesome. An enduro, a full suspension XC, a hardtail, a gravel, a climber, an aero or a TT ?
But then could we all agree on the specs ? 

One CT frame for each discipline then lol. Have to start with a road frame though

The main need for most people here are geometry/sizing, tire clearance, price and just ok after sale support. Other DIY issues would be covered by default, as users post on the forum.

For geometry, if those interested would post their needed geometry/size in the forum, it is easy to use the data to create a very close custom geometry / size chart based on the collected data.

In this case let's write them up: info@lightcarbon.com info@winowsports.com, i already did, maybe they will decide

I think winowsports OEM for Elves brand. Today im make some look at winow's website and im figured out thier FM238 and elves falath pro are the same every number.

Told myself I'd take break from super budget frames, but am very tempted to pull the trigger LoL

In a rare display of self-control, famed YouTuber vows not to look at budget frames......
....... for 1 week and proceeds to showcase a stunning build that now implements havoc on the garages of his channel followers
who will now build the same frame

 


..... if I remember correctly, this is exactly how I fell down the VBR-218 build rabbithole & thanks to your help & others on the 218 page, it is still riding great.

Have a great build & post some pix

Another BSA bottom bracket on a budget Chinese frame. What could go wrong?

Is there usually a problem with think kind of BBs? I heard that it's even better to fix tolerance issues

Easy pick Ostro VAM all day you'll be able to have a light bike with the pedals included

I noticed recently, there's a difference between TanTan and aliexpress sellers:

1) Different handlebar, Aliexpress version have nicer looking and very interesting clamp design
2) Aliexpress seatpost, it doesn't have coating for better grip
3) I may be wrong, but Aliexpress version brake calliper place is not polished


And if someone interested, here is photo of the headtube

Assuming the TanTan version build quality is ok (no certainty of that), I'd rather ride it than the Scott ... that 1" steerer does not seem like a good idea.
