Re: LCFS948 - a new enduro from Light Carbon
I received the size medium that I ordered. Frame built up just fine. Only issue was the original shock we bought was the SR Suntour Triair 2 with the sideways piggy back and the frame was about 5mm too narrow. Switched to the voro coil as the original triair is no longer available. One bummer was that all the drawings had a ISCG-05 mount shown but the frame I received did not. I asked and was told that production frames don't have it. Went with a crank based bash guard instead.

Re: Carbonda FM 1003 / Flybike FM 1266 180mm "Super Enduro"
I´ve a frame to sell in Germany! Unfortunately did the inner tubes break due to a broken rear derailleur. But is fixable with noise protection. I sell because of the missing bottle cage. https://bikemarkt.mtb-news.de/article/1723239-carbon-fm1003-fm1266-enduro-rahmen June 16, 2024, 04:28:29 AM |

Re: LCFS948 - a new enduro from Light Carbon
170mm of travel on a 55mm stroke is crazy. You'll need to stuff a few volume spacers in the shock for sure.

Re: Carbonda FM 1003 / Flybike FM 1266 180mm "Super Enduro"
I’ve heard a couple reports of the linkage/main pivot loosening on both versions of the 1003 (Carbonda’s and ICAN’s, though it’s not clear how different the construction of the two actually is), and I’m not shocked that the stock hangers are a bit substandard. All of Carbonda’s UDHs are made from this very soft low grade aluminum that seizes and snaps way too easy, so I use Wheels Manufacturing UDHs on all my Carbonda frames instead. For whatever reason, I’ve never had any trouble with my 1003’s pivots/linkage loosening. Because of those reports, I’m paranoid about it every time the bike gets stressed at the downhill park or a long technical ride and the torque is always unchanged. I do have a complete set of replacement hardware/bearings on order from Carbonda and plan to do a total overhaul in November. Maybe I’ll turn something up then, but loosening just hasn’t been an issue for me. August 24, 2024, 02:55:40 AM |

Re: Drilling new holes for cables
Awesome. Thank you. This is exactly what I was looking for. All the other articles were talking about drilling through plexiglass or some other random stuff.

Re: Kinesis TUM616
Cant find any link to this frame on ali now. Does anyone have a link? Or anything else about it http://www.kinesis.com.tw/en/product-689621/TUM616-27-5-plus-29er%E8%80%90%E5%8A%9BEnduro%E8%BD%AF%E5%B0%BESuspension.html Here’s a link to the manufacturer… maybe contact them to see if you can get it from them or where you can buy it. If you use the browser duck duck go and search kinesis tum616 you’ll find more links to purchase then you will on chrome. Hopefully that helps. February 02, 2025, 01:20:12 PM |

Re: FM-1286 out of stock, Nukeproof Dissent offered as an alternative
Any news on the build thread? Did I miss it? No, I just had a mixup with the local shop that had me waiting 3 weeks for a job that was actually done in two days, and I just got the partially built frame back a couple days ago. I’ve been looking for a good spot to take pictures — messy house with no good backgrounds, and outside is still snowy without many spots I could put a bike that doesn’t have wheels yet. Coming soon though! I’ll try to get some pics today. It’s *insane* how good this looks and I want to make sure to do it justice
