Blog Review from cyclistshub.com accessed 2 days ago

The reviewer tested the Winspace SLC5 frame and found it to be one of the best Chinese frames available, built with premium materials and wind-tunnel tested for aerodynamics. However, they note it is less stiff than expected compared to the T1600, feels marginally slower on flats, and had several issues during the build process that affected their overall impression.

AI-Summary

Pros

  • Super light and comfortable
  • Made of T800, T1100, and military-grade carbon (M46, M65)
  • Wind-tunnel tested (13W faster than SLC3 at 48 km/h)
  • Nice attention to detail (sealed front axle, titanium bolts, hidden FD wire hole, and more)
  • Nice paint job
  • Can accommodate up to 32 mm tires
  • Multiple handlebar widths and stem lengths available
  • Available in many colors
  • Torque information is available

Cons

  • Frameset doesn't include a handlebar ($399 extra)
  • Routing the brake hose through the fork is difficult due to the current fork design
  • Received the wrong compression plug
  • Problems with different diameters on the left and right sides of the HYPER cockpit
  • Seatpost design does not allow adjustment of the front bolt if the saddle does not have a cutout
  • Steering is limited to 90°
  • Limited edition sticker placement is hidden under a bottle cage
  • Greater price depreciation since Winspace is a Chinese brand
  • Less stiff than the T1600
  • Feels marginally slower on flats

Key Points

  • Frame weight (size L): 852g with bolts and hangers
  • Fork weight: 343g uncut
  • Uses T800, T1100, M46, and M65 carbon materials
  • Wind-tunnel tested for aerodynamics
  • Hidden front derailleur wire hole under the hanger
  • Fork has two shafts internally, not one narrow one
  • New batches should have internal groove for easier brake hose installation
  • Packaging improved from earlier T1600 batches
