 Will be interested as well ! FWIW I only got 500 km out of that bb before it became rough. I changed out the supposedly ceramic bearings to steel ones and it was fine - over 3000km now in all weather.

Nice! Keep us posted on the build. Make sure to weigh it as well!  ;)

I was highly considering this frame, but I opted for something else which is on the way!  ;D

I have the Kactus BB as well-will replace it with this when it dies.

Stunning frame, never considered before. I read something about ICAN seems pretty legit quality. Feel like no one talk about ICAN frame on this forum, am i wrong?

It's probably because they don't shill enough influencers!  ;D

Also the FL1 isn't available at all their global warehouses, it seems you have to order direct from China.

Be interested in the build as well.  This was at the top of my list but I found something better suited for me.  Can confirm, it must be ordered direct from China.  I spoke with them via email and received quotes for frame, painting and shipping.  Service was very responsive.

I can confirm, from payment It took only 2 days to ship
Crystal was very responsive with pics and informations.
And give me a spare hanger as gift, it's proprietary and they dont do It in direct mount version

The FL1 was on my top 5 frameset wishlist. I talked to Sherry at ICAN via email. They're very responsive and quite professional. If they tweaked the FL1 to be UDH, that would make it near perfect. Though has anyone confirmed if they use EPS molding for the frame?

It's listed bottom of my frame list because of the look but actually these pictures are looking good.
Wait for the final build.

Me too, still considering Onirii One, or One pro and Ican FL1. The lightest frame from Elves so Vanyar in my size weight...1160 g >:( The issue with the Onirii is that I have 187 cm, and I'm on the edge with that 56 frame! I checked the bikegeocalc.com and it should be okay, but I have some doubts. The Ican looks very nice, rather good opinions and there are quick. However, the One Pro is looking much better, but for sure will be heavier. Funny that I have everything, but the heart - frame is missing :D All with tyres should be around 7 kg, I need frameset lighter than 1345g :-D
-Frame unknown,
-Avian canary 400/110~264 g,
-Avian wheels CRDB5 ~1200 g,
-Sram Red 1x12, with Garbaruk cage ~1900g,
-SHimano XTR rotors ~88+108g,
-Gemini 46t chainring ~98g
-Garbaruk 10-44 cassette ~280g,
-Favero Assioma duo ~300g,
-Conti GP5000 S TR ~550g.

That Onirii One pro looks extremely similar to the New Spcycle R088, but with a different fork and double the price.
I'm 99% sure it's the same frame at a healthy markup.
