Check out Drip E bikes Facebook. They are at sea otter with the blue paired with red ZebThere aren’t many pics of the blue other than the stock pics, does anyone know if the color in this video is supposed to be the Cosmic Blue available from the factory? It looks totally different than the stock pics from Teewing, looks very similar to the Teal Sparkle on the Bullit.. Hopefully it’s something specific for an early build bike.

Good call, I guess it is the same. Very interesting color, looks entirely different depending on the lighting. Hard to believe these are all the same color. I’m not a fan of how teal-ish it looks in the sun, I like the darker metallic blue look it has in the dark, but it could grow on me I guess.
I have the Gen 3 levo in blue with orange factory 38's and orange grips. I have found that to be the limit of orange the bike needs and yes it turns heads mostly for good but sometimes not for good.
@Greg Watts can you update the size chart comparing peoples height to size of bike please

This bike he had at sea otter is almost my exact build but I went with vivid coil. We’ll see how the Superman colors look in person
Updated. We've got three data points now:
Interesting that @dyldebus and @Lantz are virtually the same height but landed on different sizes - though @dyldebus noted Darren at Drip steered him toward the Large based on feel, so there's clearly some personal preference in play around that 178-180cm mark. I'll keep adding to this as more people share.

Anyone in the UK that could tryout a custom fender made by sicomtb?

The Pinkbike reviewer got max seatpost insertion figures from Teewing. Looks like a 180mm OneUp (the shortest dropper brand for a given travel) would still have about 15mm sticking out when fully bottomed in the Large size bike I've been eyeballing. Here are the figures for all 3 sizes: "max post insertion is 230, 255, 280mm for M, L, XL."

I have the force in size medium and a 180mm one up dropper v3. I was able to fully insert it. I since moved it up a bit, but still.
I can't imagine the bigger sizes would run into issues there.

I was going to get a 175mm wireless dropper on my medium Flux. But it requires 285mm insertion. So I'm going to stick with the wired 150mm.

So, rear suspension.
There is a youtube video going through the estimated Flux kinematics, he replied to a comment of mine saying progression is 3.2 to 2.2, which google ai tells me is about 30%. I usually run coils in my bikes and would like to on this, would a progressive coil lead to too much ramp up? I'm a sucker for supple small bump performance so usually try to maximize this, by a) running a coil and b) running a progressive coil. But maybe a standard coil would suffice on this frame? My shock wont have bottom out adjustability (2024 DHX2).
Thoughts?

Wow, that is interesting. The Force and the Flux have the same seat tube lengths in Med, and the Large is supposed to be 5mm shorter on the Flux, so nearly the same. That is interesting you can fully insert it on a Med Force. I wonder if the Flux is that much more restricted, which would be a bummer, or if the numbers are off? According to those numbers from Pinkbike/Teewing, your 180mm OneUp dropper would have 40mm of post exposed when fully bottomed from the Medium Flux, which is pretty far off of your Force allowing you to slam it.

3.2 to 2.2 is pretty progressive, which should make it well suited to running a coil. As to your question about running a progressive coil, my impression from what I've read is that they're generally only mildly progressive, like 15% or so, which is less than most air shocks. Some of it may depend on your individual ride preferences, and terrain, but if the bike works fine with an air shock's spring curve, I'd think it will be fine with a progressive coil.
I have a medium Flux and a 180mm Oneup 30,9 with a chim and can set in almost the bottom. Is about 5 millimeter left.

That's a nice looking bike, congratulations! How do you like it so far? Also that is great info about the actual seatpost insertion depth! That is interesting you are running a 30.9mm with a shim, rather than the 31.6mm. Depending on if the restriction at the bottom of the tube is a hard stop, or a sort of slight narrowing, running a smaller diameter post could be a way to get a bit more insertion depth out of the frame.
Not that 5mm is likely to make a big difference, but if the Medium Force allows one to fully slam a 180mm OneUp, then it seems the Flux is more restricted, which seems like an odd choice for Teewing to make when designing their 2nd bike, especially one intended for even more aggressive riding than their first bike.
I have been on a Orbea Wild until now and had no plans of a new bike. But when I got the chance to try this one out for a couple of times I was in love. Is a hell of a bike. And so much fun. In the short and high setting it a hoot to play around with and with the chain stays in the long setting it's becoming a real beast on the fast and steep. Haven't had the chance to get a 29er in the back yet. But it's coming. It even climbes better than the Orbea which is a surprise.

Yeah idk really, but honestly, it wouldn't surprise me if the length was conservatively listed. Ofc the bottom latch on a wired dropper can hang below the kink depth so that is probably 15-25mm that is otherwise included in total length
I also ordered the Blue Flux today with Red ZEB, Vivid Air combo. Added Red Race Face stem, Red stem spacers and Red lever on the dropper post as well as red set post clamp. GX components with cable, DT Swiss 1501 Carbon wheelset, One Up dropper post. I might change the pedals to red as well. Don't want to go to overboard.
^^^^^
Way to go Lantz!
Nice setup. How did you get the AXS power cable ?

On my demo ride I was not able to get the suspension through the travel midstroke. The coiled bike was not set up for me which is what I chalked it up to and asked before I rode what the progression flip-chip was set to (standard). It was over sprung. Still, I would stay away from a progressive coil until you get more data points, otherwise chose a progressive coil on the undersprung side.
Darren at Drip EBikes, the sole US distributer, does full custom build ups. He did one for my Turbo Force trail bike.

I saw drip is continuing their presale with $1500 off any complete Teewing bike, this might be the thing that pushes me over the edge to place an order sooner rather than later. I just can't decide what I'd want to look like.... Blue with all black Rockshox suspention, Black with Fox suspension, Blue with the red Zeb and the red accents to make the superman theme I've seen. Too many options and I'm far too indecisive of a person to be given so many possibilities...
From what I’ve heard, AMFLOW went and bought all the cables for the new M2/M2S motor. Pretty much a dick move on AMFLOW and SRAM for allowing it to happen. Not sure how those of us that don’t have an AMFLOW are gonna get a cable and they changed them so the M1 motor cable doesn’t work.
Whatever you do, if you do decide on a custom build, call Darren. There are more options that what is listed on the website.
That’s so last year
My bike is out for delivery. Will post pics and vids later tonight.

lol, it does look classy, I’ll give you that. Just never been a big fan of gold myself. What I definitely don’t like is the blue frame with kashima, so if I go blue it’ll be a Rockshox setup.
Decisions decisions… GX or X0, Carbon or Aluminum wheels.
