Re: Carbonda FM909
Hi i ordered my frame and wait patiently. Meanwhile, I'm trying to order parts. I'm having trouble finding a 30.9 carbon seatpost. Do you know any good ones from China?

Re: Carbonda FM909 Received my un-painted XL FM909 11/26/21, ordered 10/23/21, after being on reserve since since 9/8/21. 1973g with rear axle, no shock, no headset.  Box was damage in transit, but frame arrived unscathed.  Working on painting first and then looking forward to my first new bike build since 1997 :'(

Re: Carbonda FM909  ;) Christmas came early this year.

I think I have everything, but 2cm more spacer. Already ordered.
The color is amazing. When you are very close you the blue and carbon are visible.  In the Light it's then really blue. Otherwise it appears very dark. So it's a effect for the rider  ;D.  For chameleon effects I always think it's an effect only others see, but the rider always sees one color.
I already attached frame protectors.. will then start with the routing of hoses tonight. 8)

Re: Carbonda FM909 This should visualize the different progression characteristics of the FM936 and FM909.

The blue line is the overall force needed to go from 0 to full travel.
The red line is the force needed to get the next 1mm of travel at any given point.

Both shocks are the same except for a slightly bigger volume spacer in the FM936 to match the overall bottom out resistances.

As you can see, the FM909 has a more pronounced "dip" in the late mid stroke whereas the FM936 is more evenly progressive. So with the same SAG and bottom out force, the FM936 will offer a better mid stroke platform and sit higher in its travel. Maybe the soft mid stroke of the FM909 has its advantages for an XC bike, but for down country, the FM936 should be better suited - also because of the 10-15mm extra travel.
