Re: Carbonda fm936 Thoughts
Are you able to take a measurement level from the trunnion bolt level. To the frame? 2 inches November 08, 2020, 09:59:27 AM |

Re: Carbonda FM909
AHHHH they're not the manufacturer? wow, make it more surprising that their website is not great! Well it is not that clear as usual when you try to know where frames are really coming from. @Sissypants who seems living there or well connected, said something like Carbonda had a good engineering team, that they were designing/making molds, etc. As long as they provide great frames and keep their excellent service, we don't really need a nice web site Flybike's site is quite impressive though.

Softail titanium MTB 29/27.5+ (all mountain - bikepacking)
Hello, Who I am : Just over 30 yo MTB rider, 177cm tall, 65 kg, I live in the French Alps. I practiced XC, trial and dirt as a kid. I did practice pure enduro around 25 yo, but now I don't want to ride that hard anymore I mostly ride all mountain and bikepacking MTB trips. I want to climb hard, enjoy views/landscapes, have fun while downhill Few weeks ago, I had a Specialized Enduro + Orbea Alma + NS Bikes Eccentric + road bike + pumptrack bike + a titanium custom hardtail MTB with Pinion gearbox (commute / travel). The project Sell all my bikes except the Pinion bike, and build a new all mountain / bikepacking MTB. I wanted :
I thought that a "down country" bike would be a solution. Carbonda FM936. Then i changed my mind for a pure all mountain FM1001. Then I hesitated for a 160mm FS947. Then an AM831 (SC hightower like). Every of them have pros and cons and the cons won every time... Then I thought a custom titanium hartdail with 180mm front fork (based on Chromag Doctahawk), would probably be amazing. But still no rear travel... I finally make a decision and decided to order a custom softail titanium bike. Asked walty, xacd and titan products. Titan is the one I chose. Geometry Here is the geometry. 160mm fork, 80mm rear travel. Massive 505mm reach and 77° STA 63° HTA 430 chainstay (63° seems crazy but it is almost a hardtail, HTA should be around 64,5 once sagged). 20mm stem (integrated bar) Compatible max 29x2.5 and 27.5x3.0. Parts Here is the detail bike check (almost everything is already at home) Goal : 11,5 kg maximum. Fingers crossed... Frame pictures The frame just left the factory for shipping. Next steps : wait, mount and test-ride April 22, 2021, 07:46:35 AM |

Re: Chinese Santa Cruz/AM831
I see the Hightower wont, but any idea if this close will fit an X2 rear shock? April 23, 2021, 11:59:44 PM |

Re: The Shiny New AM831 Group Buy (A) Thread!
Attaching a picture of my finished build. This frame size is "S". Only the bottom cage is missing and I haven ridden it yet, apart up and down the street to tune suspension and saddle height. Some interesting parts of my build:
As for my component list, most of them are reused form other builds or both 2nd hand:
I hope this is helpful to others.. August 29, 2021, 09:25:32 PM |

Re: Carbonda FM909
Looks like being bullet proofedKind 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: https://thetrail.pl/produkt/xc-pro/ January 21, 2022, 05:28:39 AM |

Re: Spcycle 2023 New Travel 120mm Super Light 29er full suspension frame
If the buyer needs external cable routing, we can drill holes in the frame.
