modern geo 29" carbon hardtail in XL/21"

Was looking for something like OG CF-52 or FM199 but all only available up to L size.
Epic/Scale Clone would be great.

I was precisely looking at both models today for a friend, to find they were not available in 21"
I'm so disappointed Carbonda stopped selling hardtails, the FM386 21" I've built last year was quite good. Maybe if we ask politely  ???

We could, but for me I'm not completely sold on the lines and design of that frame.
Any other clue? The TanTan and OG Evkin ones are looking amazing because of their filigree tubes.

I'm looking at similar problems trying to find a hardtail XL option (6'2, 189cm, RAD: 84cm). Are there any good option for XL hardtail frames at the moment?

I don't know why TanTan and Trifox and others don't invest in a XL mould. Would be very beneficial if you ask me.
The FM199 looks amazing with it's filigree tubes and modern geo.

Being optimistic... it may be just their web page.
Did you ask them already?

I wonder why TanTan uses FM for their model names. This one is like Flybike. May that mean that Flybike might have the same moulds?

I attached the Flybike 2020 catalogue limited to 29er XL hardtail frames, because we all love Carbonda.
Tomorrow I get the 2021 catalogue.
Still vague if we can get those, as sometimes these are private moulds.

I'm looking for a similar Hardtail frame. Not so easy to find hardtail frame in xl. I found the airwolf boost 29. https://m.de.aliexpress.com/i/1005001901205711.html
You can check this one out. Maybe someone else has more suggestions.

Thank you for the link.
It looks great. Maybe not the dropped chainstay.

Who will buy it first ? ;)

I saw I don't remember where that FM is for Flybike Mold.

I have ridden this frame and it was very pleasant, this is a copy of Santa Cruz Highball.
