Re: FM1001 / FM1156 - 135mm frame I going to the bike park soon so I decided to try a 160mm fork on this. It feels good while going downhill, but on normal trails the riding position is just too far back. This is also setup as mullet. The fm1002 is probably much better for more downhill oriented riding.
I did some measuring from photo and it seems with the mullet setup one loose one degree of head- and seattube angle and an additional degree with the 20mm longer fork. It is not exact of course but seems reasonable.

Re: Himalo Frames? Showed up today, packaged well and shipped in a box that is about the size of the front triangle.
It came with a super ugly headset (but free is free I guess), rear axle, and even rear shock hardware.
Welds look really good, paint is pretty good, no dents or other issues.
Without a shock - 8.36lbs (3.79kg), this is going to be a heavy build...

Re: Himalo Frames? got one recently, took 4 days to get.

It was the 17" 27.5 version, with a 140mm fork the HTA measured 65.5, STA 76.5. I ran a 210x50mm shock and measured the rear travel 133.36mm.

Bike rides good, pedal like any trail bike with a Horst Link suspension.
