Re: Lexon 258 Full-Suspension XC
This weekend i've finished my first DIY Project...... My NMP Tattoo limited Edition  ... It's Mettalic Black with Hologram Glitter and Gold Lettering, logos and Graphics with a Gloss Finish. This took me about a little more than one month to prepare, paint and build. Here are some photos of the finished build.. May 24, 2021, 03:05:09 PM |

Re: Lexon "Riot 10"
I Personally completely stripped down my Lexon Frame (a Titan Race/Myst aka FM258 model) before doing my custom paintjob (sanded to the bare carbon) so i can confirm the quality of both the Frame (What lies beneath) and Bearings. Mine was matte black....and had 3 Layers (White Primer | Black Paint and Matte Clearcoat)... My built bike is almost 2000km and counting... Im completely sold to chinese frames.....already working on my next Gravel Project. December 12, 2021, 04:19:21 AM |

Re: Painting reccomendations
I completely stripped down (sanded) my lexon frame before painting. Used spraymax 2k epoxy primer, Montana cans for colors and most importantly spraymax 2k glossy clearcoat. 2 coats of primer (wet sanding between layers) and before paint, 1 base color metálic black, 1 layer of logos and effects in metálico gold , 1 layer of hollogram glitter effects, and three layers of 2k clearcoat with wetsanding and polish in the end. For my first project came out a huge success. Very professional result. Will not buy a complete bike again from now on

Re: Recommendations for a carbon saddle?
I doubt that they will remedy it. I suspect they fall into the "you get what you pay for" vendors or AliX. I almost feel like the 100kg claim is more of a 100% chance of failure rating. I think There is a big misconception of vendors on Ali express and people don't even contact the vendors they just assume wont get an answer or the problem solved.... Up to this day everything i had problems with was replaced by the vendor at no cost for me .....A friend of mine broke a carbon rim due to a big impact on a rock (Clearly out of Warranty). After sending them photos (the goal was to have a discounted replacement) they replied saying they would replace the rim. Another had a cracked integrated handlebar (replaced at no cost), broken Seatpost - Replaced, Cassete problem - Replaced.....list goes on... I guess it depends on the vendor reputation, but the majority nowadays dont want to risk bad reviews. February 04, 2022, 03:21:01 AM |

Re: Lexon "Riot 10"
On my Lexon Titan i removed them just because i stripped all the existing paint to paint the frame, and so had to dismantle everything. That being said, on my case all the bolts had fresh blue bolts "Glue". I suspect your should be as well, i would just confirm the torque and leave them be. March 22, 2022, 11:43:04 AM |

Re: Lexon "Riot 10"
I Have the Lexon Titan/Myst and i also had to place a Side entry water cage. I also placed an adapter to move the cage further down the downtube.
