Hello all,
Does anyone have a list of all the Chinese road frameset that have a T47 BB? have a Cannondale SiSl that I'd like to reuse but don't want to spend a fortune on a mainstream frame.
I know there are T47 bottom brackets for cranks with 30mm spindles, but I was under the impression that the T47 BB standard was a tad too wide for a true BB30 crank.

To use a Cannondale SiSl crank in a T47 bottom bracket you use an INTERNAL bearing type BB. Such as this:

It can be used, the crankset is currently on a second hand titanium bike with T47 BB I'm currently riding. That bike is now going to be my commuter/winter bike and I wanted to build a carbon frame bike without breaking the bank, hence looking at the open minded/Chinese framesets. Just can't really find any with T47 BBs?

And that is exactly the BB I'm using..

What's the current status of the Venge lookalikes? Winspace T1500 is out of stock and a little too expensive anyway. Don't want to spend more than $1000 for frame + fork + seatpost.

Is there any frame that has the same appearance as Pinarello Dogma F? :)

Plenty on Aliexpress, have you even tried looking for one? Plenty of Dogma F and Madone SLR

You have to look around though and contact the seller as few if any want to give you all the information/photos on AliE as they do not want to be copyright striked

I did look for it without any further results. However I found http://www.velobuildmall.com/products/2 ... den-cables which seems like a better deal + they have better reputation I guess.

Is there anything currently out there that's similar to a TCR? I'm looking for race frame (actual racing) that will only be used for hilly road races on beat up country roads. Thank you!

I'll keep it short, any suggestions out there for a good hybrid frame?

Certainly using a road bike frame is an option. Are there no true hybrid frames out there (ie, hybrid geometry, shorter TT)?
