Arno,
you show that you used a wide crankset for a 55mm chainline, do you think that was needed or do you think you could build with a standard boost chainline of 52mm?  how much chainring clearance do you have and what size chainring?

It is not my build up.
You have to ask Schnitzelfreund (Christian).

Is the only difference the linkage?  You use the same shock length and stroke?  Hopefully it would be OK with a 120mm fork (im fine with it slackening the HA a little I just wouldnt want to weaken the frame from the extra fork length)
I also replaced the fork SID SL 100mm with a SID Ultimate 35.
I use the same shock SIDluxe Ultimate 165x42,5mm.
But i removed the green 2,5mm spacer (stroke reducer).

Is this true? Carbonda plans a linkage for FM909 to support 120mm travel suspension?
Any link you can share?

Thanks & regards,
Michael

Well after almost 2.5 years took a fall and damaged the linkage enough to warrant replacement. Might as well move to the 120mm linkage. Anyone have any luck getting just that piece lately? While I wait for a response from Carbonda, any idea what I am looking at for cost?

Cost for the 120mm linkage 95USD + shipping.

Sorry if this has been asked but does anyone have the super light version and what are the weights?   I am looking for my wife who is about 45kg so durability is not a huge priority.  I really want to get the overall weight as low as is reasonable $$$ wise.
9,4kg in size "M"

What is a Reverse Angle Spacer? Where do you get one? Is it a slackening of head angle headset?

Reverse Angle Spacer slackening head angle and seat tube angle by -0,5  angular degree.
I ordered this one by Rose Bikes in Germany.

This little part (Reverse Angle Spacer) makes a 'big" different
for me, in combination  with the new 120mm linkage.
