Hi all,
Im looking at ordering a lexon reverse ht frame and are wondering what your experiences with lexon frames are.
Good/bad/one of the better manufacturers of chinese frames out there?
Cheers

I purchased the Lexon Riot frame with Rockshox Monarch shock about a year ago and I have no complaints. You can see several posts I made within the Riot subject. Good Luck!

Lexon seems to be all over the place. Their full squish bikes seem to have good reviews. I got a GFX gravel frame with very poor carbon layup. If you do have an issue, expect poor english responses and them trying to deflect issues.

Echo what ace says.
But there are better vendors so it's really not worth the punt on the MTBs. As far as buying their TopCarbon supplied gravel / road frames, you'd have to be out of your mind after the experiences posted by multiple people here.

thanks for the replies. Sounds like a bit much of a lottery with them!

From what I can see, Lexon are expensive for what they are. Something like a Seraph is cheaper and an equal lottery?

If you want great quality, Carbonda is a great option.

Seraph's are pretty darn cheap and I had good luck with my hardtail frame. My buddy cracked his (doing drops and casing jumps on a 100mm hardtail lol) and they responded immediately, he just paid shipping and he a replacement frame in less than a week. So maybe equal lottery in quality, but they seem to have better customer service. Can't beat Carbonda, though, in my opinion it's worth spending a bit more for them.
