Re: Carbonda FM909
Got my frame today. Too bad its winter and snowy in Sweden. The weight is with rear axle, ”dummy-shock” and ”protective” for seattube. December 30, 2021, 02:22:30 PM |

Re: Carbonda FM909
My dust cap arrived today  . I had really good luck, the cap and spacers hang almost free, cause the envelope was pretty destroyed. Brakes are not attached yet, everything else is finished. 11,4kg with 120mm front travel, with dropper post, with remote for rear and front lockout, with platform pedals and bottle cages My favorite OEM bike Canyon lux trail is listed with 11,8 in the most expensive version. Of course without pedals and cages. December 30, 2021, 03:50:28 PM |

Re: Carbonda FM909
First ride finished. Great and amazing. I wasn't much slower than yesterday on a gravel ride. (Carbonda 505) I will change to sideloader cages , cut the handlebar down to 760mm and lower the front by 10mm. Besides that I never felt so good on a mountainbike before. (I started with mtb, realized then I like roadbikes, added a gravel and now finally came back to mtb )January 01, 2022, 01:33:52 PM |

Re: Carbonda FM909
Still waiting for my frame, as soon as it arrives I will check if the axle fits. I bought: This axle seems to be to short. I tried a 171mm axle one hour ago and it is much to short. The hanger design allows you to see the axle and the thread.. 179.. maybe 178 or 177. But I wouldn't go shorter January 02, 2022, 01:56:19 PM |

Re: Carbonda FM909
Some of the details of my build. Shock pivot pin threads were kind of buggered up, so made a new Ti pin with some stainless bolts. Also turned a custom 8mm to 1/2 bushing for shock mount out of TECAPEEK. Accents in copper, plan was for "dolemite" to be in chrome, but that failed miserably so black for now.

Re: Carbonda FM909
Hello, I attached the FC-M8100-1, which has 52mm. It's fine. I use 32T chainring. I don't know if you will get troubles with clearance with larger ones. Shifting is also very good, but that's what I expected from shimano as the crank is designed for 142 as well as 148mm rear January 15, 2022, 09:48:59 AM |

Re: Carbonda FM909
Thank's. I want to buy 52 mm because I will use carbon wheels from my old bike non boost for now. Will add conversion kit. Let's hope it will works fine. I bought them because they have a smaller q factor. I wanted to have the smallest possible value. I feel unhappy riding pedaling with the feeling of being a cowboy. January 15, 2022, 10:00:16 AM |

Re: Chinese Carbon 29er Pic Thread.
I have just completed this Carbonda FM936 for my wife. It ended up being 12.6kg / 27.8 lbs and rides our local terrain very nicely. These forums were a great resource to make sure the build went smoothly. Also just for fun, is a picture of my Hongfu FM015 road bike I've had since ~2011 January 16, 2022, 09:59:05 AM |
