The same people or guy that distributes that Guillem frame also used to distribute that frame under the Van Nicholas name in the Netherlands. I bought the Skeiron several years ago. It was a pretty heavy frame but I didn't mind that as much as something was off with the geometry and the balance of the bike was very poor. You never let go of the bars because you could crash. The headtube and BB shell were not faced and the headset bearing cap rubbed against the frame so I had to file that down. That seat post you show is also the same and the problem with it is the micro adjustments, there aren't any and I couldn't get the saddle level where it needed to be. Also the titanium had blemishes in it that could not be sanded out. I tried to clean up a blemish on the downtube and a hole started to appear and if I continued to sand the hole was getting bigger. It's not good titanium. Sorry to be the downer in the room but I would advise to stay away from these frames.

@andarenbici Жыл бұрын

Great video. Who built the frame? Also, just to clarify, do you guys have any business relationship with SRAM or it's distributors? When you did LTwoo there was more of an ???, I can't tell if you are genuinely excited or genuinely excited + part of a marketing roll-out. Neither is bad but if it is the latter, a note in the comments would be appropriate. You guys have every right to have sponsorship as long as it is transparent.

@Jimmidoesstuff Жыл бұрын

Nic owns Backyard Bike Shop. I film videos of bikes that Nic builds for his customers and for himself. Nic of course has a relationship with Sram as he sells their parts, along with all the other manufacturers. He’a not tied to any one company or distributor. Sram asked Nic if he and I wanted to make a video of the new groupset if they gave it to use early. Nic said yes. I don’t have a relationship with Sram. The only brand in cycling I have a relationship with is the one I founded, Attacus. RE the frame - the full build specs are in the video description. RE L-Twoo - I assume you mean the video on Cade Media?

@@andarenbici why of course. Cade Media and my channel are consumer focused. We don’t make videos for brands. We make the things we think people want to watch. And with that in mind we think it’s always important to sign post why we are using a particular product - if the product has been provided as part of a relationship. If anything this channel (not Cade Media) you could argue is sponsored by Backyard Bike Shop as they supply me with bikes to shoot.

@Jimmidoesstuff Жыл бұрын

The L-Twoo ‘genuinely excited’ comment: do you mean in the Mailbox Monday video on Cade Media? If so, we paid full price with the L-Twoo and have no relationship with them. I’m all for brands that disrupt the big players. So am honesty wanting more, smaller, brands coming through. It forces the big players to have to work for their money, rather than it be a given.

Spent about 500 miles on it and so far so good. kzfaq.infoUgkxMesz3KOGEmwmvyKQfLfrRSUXLFzfVHZA Pros:1. Very light2. Solid quality build3. Fast delivery: It arrived 5 weeks earlier than expected.4. Easy assemblyJust a few cons but nothing major:1. Cheap tin tubes and had flat on first day... but not a big deal. I replaced the tubes.2. Seat is a bit uncomfortable but that's pretty much the same situation with most bikes.3. Seat post is a bit long/high for a smaller size 48 bike - had to saw 2 inch off to fit properly. The lowest setting is too high. The post locking system does not seem to hold well (perhaps because I saw 2 inch off).4. wheels are not tubeless compatible (from what I can tell)
