This is cheap enough to be tempting despite the fact it’d be from Planet X... I wonder if the frame could be polished free of all the Planet X/Spitfire crap. :noidea:

Did they post the geometry? Designed in UK, make in China?

Would love to hear feedback on this frame.. stiff or noodles? And ride report?

Thanks

Just got this...

HI


Thank you for your email


The geometry for that frame sizes can be found here - https://www.planetx.co.uk/c/q/bikes/road-bikes/spitfire

These are Waltly frames.

The head-set specs are - SHIS specification ZS44/28.6 EC44/40

We can only offer the Selcof version as we do not have stock of the FSA version

The weight for the small frame we do not have but we can get this for you and reply this to you via email

Thanks
