Chinese Carbon MTB > 26er & 27.5 (650b)

Smallest Carbon HT Frame

(1/3) > >>

mtbdcc:
Looking for a 27.5 Carbon HT Frame for a bike for my wife.
She is sub 5' and needs a pretty short TT. 
Seems like all of the frames are getting bigger, longer top tubes.
Would prefer 15", 550mm or less top tube.
Any suggestions?
thanks

Unfortunately, I think you're out of luck, man. I keep waiting for there top be some chiners available in those sizes and do think it's just a matter of time. Surely, there is plenty of interest for women's and kid's specific carbon bikes.. Especially since the price is so reasonable. Everyone will be moving over to carbon eventually.

Hi mtbdcc,

there is a 650b frame available in 15.5" at the XMiplay website ( http://www.xmiplay.com/ProductDetails1675 ) . I don't know the geometry, but we can ask Peter.
The weight of the 17,5" frame is 890±35g.

I have been working with bella at xmiplay.  They had a 27.5 IP-127 that came in a 15".  However it has been discontinued.   I sent her an email about the IP-196SL. 
They are very responsive in answering emails.

Just got the tt length on that 27.5 frame, size 15.5.   TT length is 570mm, way to long for my wife.

I'm not sure it is a matter of time.  I think the frames are getting to be a little larger on the small end and little smaller on the other end.  Probably to accomodate most, but not the real short or tall.
