I'll explain why I'm asking. After all, you can simply open the manual for the epic and see that the official insertion depth for size L is 220mm. But carbonda fm936 says 230mm for size L, but in fact I installed a 175mm fox transfer at a depth of 260mm. Therefore, I’m not sure that the epic has 220mm and no more.

doesnt really matter, just cut your post down if you need

I have a 175mm Fox transfer, if the insertion depth is less than 250mm then I will have to sell the dropper and buy a shorter one. but I really don’t want to change it to a smaller one. Therefore it is of great importance

This is the weight without the axle of the bottle cage bolts and without the shock absorber fittings and the shock absorber itself.  With shock absorber, weight is 1920 grams

How much does it weigh when assembled with all the parts?

Dope build, my build has a lot of similar parts albeit 500g lighter :p (and sexier)

Which store did you order the frame from? beautiful matte varnish

can anyone measure the length of the chainstay?

how can it work without the original and likely patented rear suspension?

I don’t know for sure, but as far as I can understand, the Chinese will make their own shock absorber for this frame

I think they are from the same factory. And Spanish forum shows the old version of this frame.

Hope new version does not have this problem. At least, mine after about 2k km is going stong. Some XC races and marathons with rocky descents and uphills included 

for some reason no one else writes about their long-term use with this frame

It would be especially interesting to compare it with carbonda 936 in terms of reliability, rigidity, and overall workmanship

Can anyone give long term feedback on the frame? What's broken, what's worn out? Something went wrong?

what's the mileage? what altitude gain? jumps, drops?
