Title: 150-160mm frame options
Post by: ErikR on March 04, 2021, 09:56:04 AM

Hi All!

I have a bunch of components from upgrading my bikes so I figured I'll build a bike for my son on a budget.
I want something sturdy 150-160mm that has been tried and tested. I'll probably put a zeb on it and I don't want to be worried about it cracking after going of a few drops.
So what are the choices?
I was eying the stumpjuper clone but it doesn't really seem tested much plus I'm unsure about the clone thing (I own a levo and a SJ)
I was eying the santa cruze clone but that's not available nor tested.
Is there really only the ICAN P9 that suits my requirements?

Thanks in advance

Nice suggestion thanks. I just read the thread on Chinertown, it seems the MOQ is 10, nobody has tested it yet and the seat post insertion isn’t great. I’ll search the web a bit but I don’t want to be a beta tester:/

Check out the Carbonda 356, 150 mm and it's been around a while.
