29er / japjoe7 Carbonda FM1001 build thread
« on: August 02, 2023, 10:27:45 AM »
First dual suspension bike. Been riding a hardtail for many years. Can't afford to throw down $4k-$6k in one shot so I'm leveraging AliExpress and using used parts. It's still expensive of course but a least I can build it up over the next 6 months. Here is my list of components so far. and attached Excel spreadsheet with cost. The build will be a little dynamic in that I will change some conponents choices depending on how I'm feeling and research. I still have a bunch of stuff to add to my list.

Btw, I'm from Pennsylvania in the US.

Price sheet is below labeled Bike Build 1.3.PDF (Edit: fixed format)

29er / Protection film (PPF) from Carbonda FM1001
« on: July 11, 2023, 10:30:32 AM »
Anyone know a company that sells protection film for the Carbonda FM1001 frame and/or know the companies that use this frame? Someone has to make film for this generic model.

Edit: So far the brands/models I've found are, KHS 6600, Sherpa Massif...

29er / Down country carbon suggestions
« on: June 23, 2023, 11:32:35 AM »
I really like the Carbonda FM936 but that's more of a XC bike, and most other I'm seeing here are DH with a few down country sprinkled in. Can you all suggest a particular brand/model for down country... ICAN, Carbonda, Lenox, etc. Something maybe with a fork/shock travel of 130-160mm. Not looking to go 180mm.
