Hi, does someone have some information or comments about the ICAN S8 frame? My friend Google could not give me anything else than what is available on the ICAN Web site. It looks like a mix of the 036 with the M06.

Geometry numbers are interesting.

Klaster_1:
ICAN sent me frame info PDFs today, but Chinertown does not allow to attach files this big. Here are download links (first hosting I found in Google):
https://www.pdf-archive.com/2017/08/03/s8/s8.pdf
https://www.pdf-archive.com/2017/08/03/s8-geometry-model/s8-geometry-model.pdf

I was entertaining myself about swapping M06 rocker arm to something lighter and S8 RA design looks like it has less material, but I'm not sure about compatibility.

Update:
ICAN sales person (another Melody, lol) plain refuses to either sell an S8 rocker arm or even provide dimensions so I can make sure for myself if it fits or not. Because "Your frame is not ours ,if not fit ,make your frame broken ,that will be problem". What a load of bs. Why would a chinese vendor bother with parts compatibility anyway, I probably would not be able to make them bear legal responsibility (or would I?). Or yeah, Dengfu declined to provide rocker arm dimensions too.

I asked ICAN about pricing and cable routing since there was no clue about an internal routing for a dropper post.

First answer was this:


--- Quote ---For S8 frame, USD730/set (frame,headset,hanger)
Geometric chart attached ,please check ,which size do you like ?
If in stock ,we will send out within 1-3days after payment

For cable routing ,all inner cable routing, photos attached ,if you are not sure ,before shipping ,we will mount the cable for you like the S8 photo
--- End quote ---


So I sent another question only about the dropper post routing. The answer is the following:


--- Quote ---Hi,
S8 frame could mount inner cable dropper seatpost
We confirm S8 has the design

Nice day

I have a S8 at home just now. Will start to build it up after the season end and when I receive some new parts (shock). Will take most of the parts from my existing HT. It's an XL frame.

There is a guy in Sweden building bikes from this S8 frame. I bought mine from China.

Can you post some pictures of the frame from various angles please?

Thank you!
