Re: Debating between some frames, please advise
I've rode the FM936 for the last year and I am not interested in vertical rear shocks anymore.

Hi Casual,

Would you mind elaborating why? The last bike I owned with a vertical shock was amazing (knolly chilcotin) but that was before 26” wheels died.

Re: FM1002 / FM1166 - 150mm frame I just order one of these for my partner. Pretty excited to see how it goes.

@Adilka what shock hardware did you have to buy? All I was told is 30 x 8mm which I assume is just the bushings for the non trunnion end. Did you need to buy any bolts?

Re: Carbonda fm936 Thoughts Areid280 - I don’t believe that white plastic is suitable gear housing. Gear housing shouldn’t bend or kink when gears are changed. I would run the gear housing outer the whole length.

Good luck

Did they give you a whole range of metallic paint color options? I haven’t seen any info posted here about that.

I just asked for a quote on their metallic RAL paint options. From what I can gather there’s 15 colours in total.

Got the track number today. I’d be impressed if I received it before xmas.

Re: FM1002 / FM1166 - 150mm frame For anyone following along at home, the frame arrived just before Xmas (3wks postage to Australia). The finished quality of the frame and paint job is great. Paint near the bearing is generally good, only looks like one spot where the paint might flake off, time will tell. The only thing I don’t like is the top cover for the headset but you can’t really complain for $15. Overall I’m quite impressed with the whole experience.

I can’t comment on how the bike actually rides but my partner seems to like it. I’ll try take it out for a spin and offer some feedback in the future.

I’ll take some more photos when the dropper post arrives.
