Re: Chinese Santa Cruz/AM831
I'm imagining a mullet build with this frame, with a 28-29 lb (>13.5kg) full bike weight with pedals. I'll probably go with a 160mm shock to rake it out a little further. The tricky part, imo, is getting the right shock tune to buy (I want a RockShox Super Deluxe). Do we have a clue on how progressive this design is? Will a MegNeg fit, btw?

Re: Chinese Santa Cruz/AM831
I would like to do the same actually, so as to be able to use my existing I9/Nobl rear wheel. Would be a huge saving to just buy a 29er front wheel. Any idea if this is a good idea with this particular frame? Was thinking 150 or maybe even 140 fork to offset some effect of the mullet setup since this bike is already super slack. I was surprised to hear you are trying to slacken it even more. I would like to run it mullet without making the bike slacker than it already is. I haven't really looked into the details yet. I've attached the geo change just by over-forking to a 160mm Lyrik. Will calculate potential mullet numbers tomorrow after work. August 04, 2020, 12:49:14 AM |

I was surprised to hear you are trying to slacken it even more. I would like to run it mullet without making the bike slacker than it already is. I haven't really looked into the details yet. Using my elementary math knowledge, the resulting geo of a mullet build with a 160mm fork would approximately be: • Fork Height: 571 mm (RS Lyrik 29) • Head Angle: 64.25 • Seat Angle: 75.75 • Wheelbase: 1203.3 mm • Eff. Top Tube: 593 mm • BB Height: 341.1 mm • Chainstay length: same • Headtube Height: same • Reach: -1.7 mm • Stack: +10.1 mm Assumptions: • Diameter difference between 27.5 and 29 in. wheels is at 38mm • Tires to be used are exactly the same model, just different wheel size • No flip chips or anglesets or offset bearings used • Mullet defined as the 29 wheel being in the front and the 27.5 wheel in the back (duh) Guys with engineering backgrounds may want to chime in and correct the above.

Re: LCFS947 - 160mm 4-bar 27+/29
For all you BIS (bike idiot savants), what is this one a clone of? I always assume most of these are based on or started out as an OEM production frame. Reminds me of the KHS sixfifty 7500, but with larger wheels and a modern geo. September 10, 2020, 06:36:39 AM |

Re: Chinese SC/AM831 Group Buy
This thread was started March and it's half a year later and it seems we have not gotten any sort of progress towards even seeing ONE frame in the hands of a customer. I'm looking to get a new bike built come Christmas. Unfortunately, it's starting to look like the Covid vaccine has a better chance of coming to customers first before this frame does.

Re: Specialized Enduro Copy
Given that the original Enduro has had multiple reports of cracking frames, I think it will be a bit difficult to build a similar design without getting into some speed bumps.
