Component Deals & Selection / 11-42 HG 12-Speed cassette?
« on: February 17, 2023, 07:08:04 AM »
I want to upgrade my gravel bike from 11 speed to 12 speed but I’m having a real hard time finding a 11-42 HG cassette.

11-42 are a dime a dozen for 11-speed but I can't seem to find that range anywhere for 12-speed?

Is it just me or do they not exist? The closest I found was 11-46.

I could possibly compromise for a 11-40 but I haven’t seen any of those either.

29er / Lexon 258 Full-Suspension XC

Hi,

New guy here.

I've desperately been looking for info about a Lexon frame that lucks very much lika a Scott Spark but with a none trunnion shock mount.


This frame doesn't seem to have any official name but I have seen it referred to as "Model Number: 258" in some places. Mainly on Alibaba:
https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/LEXON-Mountain-Bicycle-Frame-No-Logo_1600146495170.html?spm=a2700.wholesale.deiletai6.29.771912ba4f8MzK&bypass=true

Geometry is very similar to the Scott:

VS.


Lexon is a BKR brand but their page doesn't seem to have been updated in ages and the frame is not on there:

The frame does seem to be a unik variant even if it's very close looking to other clones like the Lightcarbon LCFS911 or Tideace FM-XC029.

Does anyone here have any experience with this model? I haven't been able to find any tests or reviews anywhere. 
It looks like a good deal.

It's sold in a bunch of palaces but here are a few examples:

https://www.aliexpress.com/store/5748318?spm=a2g0o.detail.1000007.1.4abf60d3OXWj9t

Any recommendations on where to buy (or not to buy) is highly appreciated.  :)
