A short video of my 'china build' project. Basically, I wanted to build a bike with around a 4k AUD budget that had the performance (at my level of riding 250 FTP) close to the western brands.
The bike without bottle cages, garmin mount, pedals, comes in at around 6.44 kg.
After riding it back to back multiple times with a Sl8 at my level, I can not tell any difference in 'free speed' or rolling resistance.
It rides amazing in cross and hesd winds, hardly getting buffeted at all. When it does, it happens in slow motion, not a sudden push.
I am very happy with the build. Will change to ARISUN 320TPI tyres when these GP5000STR are done. So it will be 100% chinese build then.

I don't work for them or get paid by them just very impressed with their x68 frameset.
