Hello
Difficult to find a best frame than other.
But dengfu M06 seems good.

It's going to be interesting what this will show about the trends on here  :D
For my favourite frame I'll have to go with the 057 since it's the only chiner I own (and love). But ... if I had some money left I'd probably buy a cs-821.

would love to participate but I see no buttons to Social media share here? - My favourite frame right now is a Dengfu FM096

Edit: I had an Add blocker running and that killed the FB/Twitter link - I clicked now :D

Count me in!

As for a favorite, I'm very happy with my WW 062 frame.

What would I pick today? Either the CS-197 fat bike frame or the CS-GR029 CX frame as I don't have either right now. I think the GR029 would probably be the better choice as the wheels would work perfectly on it.

If building a new bike today, I'd probably be going with a Carbonda CFR505.  I'd want to build a gravel road usage bike.

My favorite new frame would be the CS-FS27.

I have a -057 from XMCarbon Speed as well. Great bike.

Nice. I'm partial to the M06. I like the linkage design, I've posted about it before.

Does it count if this is my 10th post?
I'd love a Workswell M-145

Post by: numberzero on November 20, 2017, 02:05:52 AM
My favorite brand is yishun because i had good contacts with them.
If i had to buy a fame today it will be the Ican GRAVEL BIKE FRAME GRA02.
Title: Re: Chinertown's Holiday Giveaway!
Post by: Albastru on November 20, 2017, 02:31:48 AM
I have a DengFu M06 29er and i would buy another one in a second :)

Title: Re: Chinertown's Holiday Giveaway!
Post by: exzos on November 20, 2017, 02:32:37 AM
The wheels would be a good match to my bike.
My bike and the answer is the same: CS-821
Title: Re: Chinertown's Holiday Giveaway!
Post by: carbonazza on November 20, 2017, 03:40:09 AM
I tried the IP-256 and WW-062 before.
But if one unfortunate day, I break my beloved CS-041, I would buy one again from Peter in a heartbeat !
Title: Re: Chinertown's Holiday Giveaway!
Post by: Jar_head on November 20, 2017, 04:39:55 AM
My current Chiner is a Workswell WCB-M-062.

And I would buy the LCFS911 from Yishunbikes  :)
Title: Re: Chinertown's Holiday Giveaway!
Post by: lRaphl on November 20, 2017, 10:02:47 AM
I'm torn between the Dengfu M06 and Ican S8. If I was sure the tire clearance of one or the other is the same as my IP-036, this would be the winner.
Title: Re: Chinertown's Holiday Giveaway!
Post by: Rick64 on November 20, 2017, 03:48:45 PM
Love my WW-062...If it dies I'll probably re build with a CS-041 8)





 You can't build finer than a China 29er   :D

Loving my CS-RB01+RF01 road bike now.

If I should buy a new bike, it's gonna be a 29+ CS-496.
Title: Re: Chinertown's Holiday Giveaway!
Post by: JohnnyNT on November 21, 2017, 03:50:06 AM
Loving CS-256, if I ever need a replacement it would probably be CS-821. Good luck everybody!
Title: Re: Chinertown's Holiday Giveaway!
Post by: stockae92 on November 21, 2017, 03:15:21 PM
I would probably do the tried-and-trued 057 :)
Title: Re: Chinertown's Holiday Giveaway!
Post by: ArAddict on November 22, 2017, 07:09:01 AM
Currently riding a Dengu m06

For my next build which would be a superlight XC bike the CS-218 would be perfect ! (and these wheels ofc)
Title: Re: Chinertown's Holiday Giveaway!
Post by: seahog32 on November 22, 2017, 01:33:31 PM
Not looking for a new frame, so much so that I had to go and look what is currently available. CS-041 looks tempting but I am too conservative regarding the frame geometry. Same applies to CS-MB01. I am not sure if I would trust those "elastomer shocks" or whatever you decide to call those inserts. So if somebody put a gun to my head and said I had to take one, I'd probably try my chances with the CS-887-SL.
Title: Re: Chinertown's Holiday Giveaway!
Post by: d34n on November 23, 2017, 01:17:48 AM
I would like the cs-041 or maybe the 062 again, as I sold mine due to being a little too small.

Title: Re: Chinertown's Holiday Giveaway!

I love my WW 062. Definitely will choose this again.

Still loving my Dashine Singlespeed: http://chinertown.com/index.php?topic=844.0

Keen to update my TT bike. This frame from CarbonSpeed looks great: http://www.xmcarbonspeed.com/Productinfo.asp?f=1482

I am currently riding a cs-057 but really like the Dengfu fm-218 which is essentially a cs-256 with different seat stays. If looking at full suspension the m06 looks good too!
Title: Re: Chinertown's Holiday Giveaway!
Post by: adbl on November 27, 2017, 12:21:42 PM
I currently have three Chiner bikes. A CS-057, DengFu M06 and a DengFu FM-098 road bike. I love all the frames and haven't had any issues with any of them!!!

Right now i'm thinking about building a disc brake road bike so i'm looking at the CS-13-D. That would complete my stable of bikes  ;D
Title: Re: Chinertown's Holiday Giveaway!
Post by: ChrisCarbon on November 27, 2017, 01:02:29 PM
My favourite is my CS 057 from xmcarbonspeed.

And the next frame I will get is the FS29, also from xmcarbonspeed.

Title: Re: Chinertown's Holiday Giveaway!
Post by: Midwest-MTBer on November 28, 2017, 10:34:22 PM
Well... Since I only own one Chiner it definitely has an unfair advantage! My (favorite) CS-036 has put up with a lot of abuse this past year! I'm looking forward to upgrading to GX 1x12 to keep it going this winter!

1)  I think I have more than 10 posts (although I've not posted here in a while, guess I've been busy riding my bikes).
2)  FB Like (yes).
3)  I like the Carbonspeed 29+ frame CS-496.  However, if I wanted a FS frame I'd go with the CS-FS27.

Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving holiday, at least those of us in the US anyway.

Post by: Jsquared89 on December 03, 2017, 08:22:39 AM
My favorite would have to be the Ican P8, which I just finished building.  (although I have yet to take in on the trails) Fairly modern geometry compared to other chiners.
Title: Re: Chinertown's Holiday Giveaway!
Post by: rideczech on December 03, 2017, 09:21:57 AM
Got a couple of months on my Ican P9 now and it's great fun.... If I were to build another then it would have to be the FS27.

Spot the new part!!

I am thinking about getting a full-sus 2017 dengfu M06 for the summer season. Will have to do a bit more research to settle my mind, but since this thread is here I will check it later for some good inspiration to steal:) Even now some of you are pointing to frames I didn't know about.

Awesone looking bike! Is GX 1x12 significantly better than this one?
Title: Re: Chinertown's Holiday Giveaway!
Post by: carbonazza on December 05, 2017, 07:00:50 AM
Sorry to deviate the giveaway post !!

I mounted a couple of GX 1x12 recently. Everyone is happy.

They are a very good value for money, compared to the XX1 Eagle( that I run ).
It is about 200g heavier, mainly from the crank.

If you are a Shimano shifting lover, you may feel it differently( I don't ).

The 12 speeds is a game changer.
You do not need to choose between dying uphill( too big chainring ).
Or being dropped by your 2x friends on the flats/downhill( too small chainring ).
And can choose 2T or more than your previous 1x chainring.

In addition, the XX1 version seems to last longer.
My XX1 11sp cassettes were dying at about 9 months.
Here I'm at 12 months and my 3 chains are still good( I rotate them every ~500km )

The Ican P9 looks pretty sick but doesn't look to be available yet.  If I were to buy today, I would get a Velobuild M-075.

I'm still waiting for that 29er with tire clearance for 29*2.6" and a slacker head tube in XL ;)
But today, I would also buy the CS-FS27, in 29er spec.

They already have that. It’s the CS-496 from XMCarbonSpeed. Yes it’s boost spacing but just put the axle in the 27+/29 short position and run a 120 fork. That will give you 425mm chainstays and a 67.5 degree head angle.
