Reviews & Ratings
The TanTan TT-X21 is a carbon road frame that is also sold under other brands (e.g., Velobuild VB-R-099, Long Teng LTK268-D, Workswell WCB-R-268). It features a proprietary seatpost with significant setback, integrated handlebar/stem, and internal cable routing. Users report a mix of experiences: many praise the frame's stiffness, light weight, and value, while others complain about quality control issues (undersized BB shell, headset play, fork alignment) and poor customer service. The frame weight is around 1160g for a 56cm. It supports up to 32mm tires. Prices vary: frame-only around $599, complete bikes around $2650. Common upgrades include replacing the compression plug and headset components to resolve front-end issues.
