Can we get another update on how the bike is holding up? How's the fork doing? Also what do you think of the integrated bars

I have been looking into the 056 and the 256 and asked hong fu and xmiplay about pricing. I was told the 056 is $400 before shipping and the 256 was $545 before shipping. Can someone explain the difference in price or justify spending that much more on the 256?

One more newbie question, I ride a 19.5 frame right now so would a 19 256 frame fit me? Also BSA vs bb30 for a bottom bracket? Which will be best in the long run?  I hate asking questions when I don't have a lot to contribute to the forum, but maybe in the future I can.

29er / FM056 questions
« on: November 26, 2015, 07:54:30 AM »
I hear on other forums that the FM056 frame is the way to go for a 29er? Does it matter which FM056 I buy or are they all the same quality? I have a new trek marlin 7 and would like to transfer as many parts as possible, is there a better frame option?  Thank you guys for any help you can provide. I know there are many posts through out the interweb about the FM056 but I could not find much on the questions that I have asked.

Not new to the sport but very new to carbon as well as Chinese frames. I am in the military so budget frames are high on my list but I also appreciate quality. This forum has been a wealth of knowledge.
