Re: Carbonda FM909
I am thinking about something like that:

Looks like being bullet proofed  ;D

Re: Carbonda FM909 Thanks, will check out those options. Still waiting for my frame to ship. Wing said this week, hopefully I get a tracking number soon. Have everything for the build aside from the frame and wheels!

Re: Carbonda FM909 Assembly finished, first ride is waiting for better weather  ;D

10,8kg in XL Size

Remarks:
Magura 4 piston caliper with 180mm Rotor in the rear requires filing action at the caliper otherwise it will not fit
Rear axle is too long as many others already mentioned, seems to be systematic problem
Lower Bolt for shock mounting is too short, shock does not move any longer when screw is tightened

Complicated  8)
I'm going to buy SLX m8100 with 52 mm chainline. Have 34T chainring, will check if it fits - if not- will use 32T. Problem is, that I will use non boost wheels with boost adapter for now. Let's see how it will perform.

Ok, same chainline as the XCX.
The 34T chainring which came with the crankset had no problem with the frame.

Kind of :), but looks nice. I am also thinking about the usual foil. I have an original one on my previous bike and it protects very well, and it is practically invisible. Look at pictures.
Something like that:

To protect the frame, I use material
Waterproofing tape Cotran KC80. If it is properly glued, then it will look decent. By weight, everything that I put on added +100 grams.

I added a link to the album, because I can not attach photos here =(

Re: Carbonda FM909
I do not know what diameter you have in the fox, if the same as in the rock shox, i.e. 8 mm, the length is 30 mm, I think it will be ok:
For fox:

Yes, thank you, I thought about this kit, but there were doubts. Because Fox has very similar sizes as 29.97 etc. And 8mm is a frame bolt size, not the shock.
Bought the OEM Trek shock and found an incompatibility only when trying to assemble the frame  ;D

Upd.
Decided to use a lathe and reduce the current kit. )))

Re: Carbonda FM909 Sons been riding hos now aince Christmas.  So far no real issues.  Here is a video of him descending dkwn a local trail tjat is generally pretty gnarly.  Probably more suited to a longer travel bike but this thing did the job and he didnt flat or destroy a wheel.

Re: Carbonda FM909
My friend did some trick, dont't exact know what (see photos), and IT works. There are only 2 positions now, open and close. That's fine with me.
It's a usual cable tensioner, which is commonly used with dropper posts or road bikes.

Apparently it was preloaded 5mm.
