29er / Debating between some frames, please advise
« on: October 29, 2021, 11:25:48 AM »
So want to build my first chiner, i built up my motobecane aluminum frame and now i want a bit more travel. Currently at 140F/100R.
Trail options - worried that 130 rear would not be enough travel.
ICAN P1 - very interesting but seems a bit outdated GEO
LCFS958 - really like this, but concerned about the rear shock options. seems like a rare/odd size.
Enduro - 150 rear travel
P9 - outdated GEO but fairly priced
LCFS947 - by far my favorite thus far, but i will need to get a bigger fork. currently running a Marzocchi bomber Z2 2020, max travel 150
AM831 - looks interesting but not 100% in love with it.
i ride mainly local trails and will start going to a lift access bike park next season doing mainly blues and greens with an occasional black diamond. just got into this sport and driving my wife insane. so my goal is to find the best middle ground for trail & downhill riding.
thank you all!
