Re: FM1001 / FM1156 - 135mm frame Just received my Carbonda fm1001 from Katie, looks great. I just took a quick pic right out of the box.

I had it painted by them, the color is purple/green chameleon. Total cost shipped to Colorado was $1154.

Just starting to build it up, but wondering about frame protection.

@Neb, where did you get your chainstay protector and downtube/bottom bracket protection? I'm really liking the way yours looks and fits.

Thanks!

Re: FM1001 / FM1156 - 135mm frame Thanks Neb for the info. I will look into that.

Just a heads up for anyone doing their own cable routing for this frame, it's a pain! I had a helluva time getting the housing through the frame, especially through the rear linkage. I ended up removing the bottom linkage near the bottom bracket to get more room to get the housing through. There is a sharp turn coming from the bottom bracket, out to the rear derailleur or rear brake line. I couldn't get the housing through from the derailleur/brake forwards to the bottom bracket, so I had to work from the bottom linkage backwards. For some reason the route to the rear derailleur was especially tough, the housing kept getting caught on something on the route. I had to cover my housing end with duct tape and a bit of grease to get it to slip through.

I used this method for getting it from the bottom bracket up to the dropper post or to the headset/bars, which worked fairly well:
