Custom Titanium Frame from China - Waltly Factory Tour

If you look online for a good, cheap, custom, titanium bike frame, you'll see one name popping up again and again. Waltly Titanium. Last year KZbin legend ‪@cyclingmaven‬ did a video on them, so I thought I'd build one up too. Imagine my suprise when I went on their website and found out their factory was only 3km from my studio. I grabbed my camera and headed on over and they kindly invited me in. This is what I saw...
If you're interested in an inexpensive titanium frame, get in touch with Waltly. www.waltlytitan... or drop them an email at [e-mail] - tell them Joe from China Cycling sent you and they'll take good care of you. ;)
As I mentioned in the video. Mark Ferguson AKA The Cycling Mavern also did a video, check that one out here: • I Built a Custom Titan...
Sound track for this video provided by Aries Beats - check them out here: free-songs.de/...

As always I am free to say what I want about my frame and the experience buying it. Many KZbinrs are less-than-transparent about this, but I respect you guys. Any questions please ask below. Thanks.

Thank you for the video. There are still so many unanswered questions: - Do Waltly do fillet brazing or weld smoothing? - Flat top tubes? - Split design like 22 Bicycles'? …and more. I'm also curious to see the video on our new Waltly bike.

Really nice to see you feature Waltly here. Lots of companies just buy these frames, rebrand them and sell them at a huge markup.

I'd highly recommend Waltly. After being very disappointed with some other custom builders (no names mentioned, Enigma), I've had nothing but great frames and service (thanks Amy!) from Waltly. Currently waiting for my 3rd road frame to be finished. I've had quite a few custom frames over the years and the craftsmen at Waltly are second to none IMHO. They know their material and really bring the best out of it. Just make sure you have a clear idea of what you want and Waltly will make you a great bike.

I believe this is the same factory my Van Nicholas Skeiron frame was built in. It's definitely a quality piece of work and I saved a bunch of money over the two gold digging brands you mentioned in this video. I built the bike up myself with Shimano Dura-Ace 9170 and fitting everything just worked. The ride is absolutely better than any bike I've ever owned which is a lot of bikes including a Merlin titanium frame I had about 15 years ago and sold because it was a POS. I'm so happy with this Van Nicholas that I will not be buying any more bikes. It's modern with internal cable routing, disk brakes, and more. Love you videos and wish you could produce them more often but I understand how busy life can be. Enjoy the ride Bro.

[@ChinaCycling]

I'm not 100% sure, but I'm 99% sure your frame was made in another Titanium factory in Beijing. But, yeah, I think mass production labour intensive production is very suitable for China with it's labour cost to skill ratio.

Well then... You had me at mid life crisis. Impressed with Waltly. Thank you china cycling for covering something I had no idea existed out of China. Much respect. I have ridden all types of bikes, but never a Ti.... I know we have similar experience and would like you to draw parallel in your Ti build and ride feel... That is, compare it to your allez first, and carbon steeds. Having watched this, I am considering a Ti build and will drop China cycling name when I contact Amy for that order.

[@91F2Z]

I picked up a 2013 custom Waltly frame second hand, and it has become my favorite bike. Great construction, and geometry fits perfect. If I were to get another Ti bike (I've also got a Lynskey off the rack) I certainly would consider Waltly. Crashed mine yesterday - head on with another rider - and although the carbon forks were destroyed, the frame is untouched. Impressed, but don't ask me to do that again!

[@ChinaCycling]

Right on! Sorry about the crash though, but you taught us all something.

[@tomichaubg]

Like someone else said, perfect timing! I was looking at carbon frames for a while now but only last week started looking into titanium. Waltly was my main candidate. I might just pull the trigger after watching your series. You have a new sub 😉

[@Stealthwealth1001]

Glad you did this video on a company I would have never heard of. It looks like a professional operation with skilled tradesmen crafting frames from quality materials. I would definitely give one of these frames a shot. I like that they have a clean facility with name brand tools and equipment

[@ChinaCycling]

Yeah, I mean - it is a factory, so it's gonna be noisy and 'industrial' - but my general impression was it was a well-run operation. I have experience in British engineering factories, and this was not a far cry from those.

[@guypolson]

My experience with Chinese Ti frames, broke two in less than 3 years second one lasted 10 months. Don't know who built them they were made for a Canadian frame shop. Never got my second one warrantied because the shop shut down. Now I own a Lynskey (3+yrs) and am very happy.

In 2019 I also got a custom gravel frame from Waltly. They were very helpful, and the finished product was spot on - recommended. However, you really need to be able to read drawings, to check *all* the dimensions, and to be patient; it took several iterations to get to the final drawing(!). If you're not so fussy a stock frame would be much simpler.

[@EdwinCCho]

Hi friend. I am interested in building a frame and I do not doubt the quality of waltly but I have a question ... how am I going to mount the brakes and have them match in the exact place? I never did an assembly and I believe that the CAD drawing of the frame is provided by Waltly before its manufacture, I only think of buying wheels, hubs, brakes and passing the measurements ......

There is some "play" in the position of the brakes, so you get them in the right position before you tighten the bolts.

Thanks for more of the inside dope, Joe! You highlight the often fine quality of Chinese manufacturing. Are there any aluminium frame manufacturers who do direct sales?

[@ChinaCycling]

Interesting question! I think most of the aluminium factories in China are doing bulk orders for lower end stuff. Then I think the higher end stuff like the Allez Sprint is made by Merida in Taiwan. The cost price for these mid-level aluminium frames is SUPER cheap. I mean... shockingly. The cost price of an aluminium frame is usually less than the carbon fork that goes with it. Shipping price would probably be higher than production cost.

[@BruceRobertson]

@@ChinaCycling Thanks, again.

[@rcg9573]

Taiwanese and Chinese manufacturing are as good as the buyer specs the product to. Spec high end you get a high end product. Spec a low end cheap product like the Walmart’s of the world do, and you’ll get a low end cheap product. China and Taiwan have invested hundreds of billions of dollars into upgrading and maintaining their factories over the past 4 decades. US has spent their $ on their military industrial complex and crony capitalism bloated contracts during that same period. Most US factories, not all but most are aged and substantially outdated compared to the typical Taiwanese factory.
