Re: FM1001 / FM1156 - 135mm frame
Waiting for you feedback on this.
I saw small air can as aftermarket component, but never a Super Deluxe with small can out-of-the box. However, this is on of most promising shock without the need to modify it.
I don't think it's available to buy with the progressive air can. You have to purchase the shock with the linear air can and buy the progressive air can and install it yourself (very easy btw)

Re: Carbonda FM 1003 / Flybike FM 1266 180mm "Super Enduro" always forget how heavy a coil shock is.

Re: Dengfu Gravel R14? Sorry to beat the dead horse, I don't have a problem with rear suspension on a gravel frame, why not... but 48mm tire clearance? Why would you do that? Making a gravel frame that leans closer to technical terrain is great but come on, I would expect AT LEAST 55mm

Re: XC Marathon Fully with... Drops? Advice?
dengue makes a full suspension gravel frame.  built around a 100/100mm travel.  http://m.dengfubikes.com/index.php?s=/229.html

Ive been trying to get in touch with dengfu and still waiting for them to get back to me but it doesnt seem like anyone on here has built up one of these? Another thing i sorta dont like is the max tire clearance, i was hoping to fir proper mtb 2.2 inch tires

Re: Dengfu Gravel R14? I'm interested in some of the new gravel bikes coming out with rear suspension.  like the Yishun G1055 that is similar to the Topstone but with better tire clearance. This amount 100mm seems to be overkill though.  Especially with the limited tire clearance.

Also, some of the geometry just doesn't seem to line up.  55mm BB drop is less than some hard tail MTB's.  It just seems like if you are clearly going for more of a drop bar mountain bike then the tire clearance and some of the geo numbers should be more aligned.

Re: Carbonda FM 1003 / Flybike FM 1266 180mm "Super Enduro" FYI, the frame from ICAN arrived today.
 
It came with a headset and rear axle.
 
Shipping took 7 days
 
I will have to order parts.
 
Does somebody know what I should check on the frame?

Dang that was so fast.  Please post some pics. When you get a chance.  And thank you for posting the weight. As for what to check, I like to make sure there are no obvious issues.  I like to go through and loosen and then re-torque all the suspension bolts. I will also grease anything that pivots.  Usually find the frames are pretty dry when it comes to grease

Re: Carbonda Gravel Carbon frame CFR707
If this has been covered in the thread, I can’t seem to find it (except for one guy who tightened it to 5nm)…what torque are people setting the integrated seatpost clamp bolt to? I don’t want to over torque but I know some people have had trouble with slippage.

I’m using an alloy zero-offset post (Raceface Turbine) in my build so I guess carbon paste isn’t as necessary but my plan is to use some on the back of the post and leave the contact area with the internal clamp dry.
I'm using about 5nm on my seatpost clamp. I also used carbon paste liberally l.

Re: Carbonda Gravel Carbon frame CFR707 5nm for me also. Don't carbon paste the interface between the clamp and post, just between clamp and frame.
