The reviewer briefly mentions the Pardus Robin Sport with Shimano 105 components, including STI shifters and a rear derailleur, noting smooth shifting.

The reviewer provides a two-year review of the Dengfu FM098 frame, which they purchased directly from Dengfu via a third-party website. They used it as a complete bike for racing and bike packing until it was damaged in a roof rack incident. They discuss the purchase process, initial build, riding experience, and specific issues encountered. The frame is described as a Chinese-made model with geometry similar to an older Venge. The reviewer notes it was used with a Campagnolo Chorus groupset and Dengfu/NovaTec 60mm wheels. The frame ultimately survived the accident better than a companion Giant TCR, but was retired afterward.

The reviewer discusses installing and testing the EC90 handlebars on their bike. They initially mention putting these bars on to test for flex, then proceed to perform a pressure experiment where they observe significant flex when weight is applied. The reviewer expresses surprise at the amount of flex, noting that it wasn't apparent when the bars were off the bike. Ultimately, they decide not to use these handlebars on their bike, opting instead for Specialized S-Works bars.

The reviewer presents a bicycle built with a frame and wheels from Dengfu, specifically the FM098 model. They state the entire bike, including the carbon frame, wheels, and seat post, was sourced from Dengfu. The bike is described as nice, light, and featuring a large bottom bracket for power transfer. It is equipped with a Shimano 105 groupset (referred to as 'altegra' in the transcript) and is 11-speed. The reviewer notes the frame is ready for Di2 electronic shifting. The owner has done about 1,000 miles with no issues and is very happy with it. The total build cost was just over £2,000.
