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

Frames that fit 200mm 57mm stroke shock (Bronson V2)

(1/2) > >>

sxott:
Anyone have any suggestions for me? I have an extra shock that is tuned for light riders and would like to use it to build a bike.

I ended up with it b/c I got a stellar deal on a Julliana frame brand new and wanted a coil shock anyway so it worked out well. I thought later I could find a used bronson or roubion frame in size small to use or one of the following frames
2019 Focus Jam 6.8 SEVEN
2017 Cube STEREO 160 C:62 SL
2017 Diamondback Clutch 2
2017 Cube Stereo 140
2019 Diamondback Release 4C Carbon
2017 Felt FrameSet: Decree 1

It turns out I have not been able to find a decent price on a used frame that I know fits the shock so I thought I would try to find a carbon one instead. There are so many options though it is hard to find recommended models let alone a specific shock size. I figured I would just ask.

Since no one seemed to know I did find one.

The FM10 seems to fit. I would rather a 27.5 honestly and not a 29/27.5 plus, but I can live with it, I think. It seems pretty decent not sure what other options there are. I wish something had a screw in bottom bracket interface. BSA has never let me down. Pressfit just seems like a PITA

Thread-together press fit BBs (Wheels Mfg for example) are a good solution.

Thanks for the suggestion.
FM08 and LCFS713 are the same frame and also both seem to fit 200*57 shock. I need to figure out which sellers are decent now as well. I've bought custom rims from nextie twice with good luck but that is all. They were ust style without nipple holes in bed. It seems almost impossible to find such rims now days. Mavic never made them in 27.5 that you could buy.
