26er & 27.5 (650b) / Re: Need advice for frame size for my daughter
« on: August 19, 2018, 02:55:01 AM »
Hey chansen!

Thanks for your reply :D

That is a very nice frame! I am in the same situation as you: I have a lot of bike parts laying around, carbon wheels 26er, bars, seatpost etc.
The plan is to build up a sweet 26er for her, then switch to 27.5er wheels after some years, just like you did. Add a longer stem as she grows. Hopefully she can keep this bike for some years.
She is only 9 at the moment, but the build will be a winter project, so she will get it next spring when she turns 10.
What size crankarms did you go for? I was thinking 155mm, but perhaps 160mm would be better.

Hey guys!

I need some advice for what frame size to buy for my daugther.
She is around 155cm.
Was thinking 15" in 26" wheelsize or even 27".
Anyone have a similar height kid maybe?  :)

My favourite is my CS 057 from xmcarbonspeed.

And the next frame I will get is the FS29, also from xmcarbonspeed.

I dont know so much about geometry etc, but if the frames have the exact same geometry, it should be possible to put the same travel forks on both frames?

Or am I missing something?

I am looking at these two frames at Xmcarbonspeed, and it seems to me like they have the same geometry.

Are these two frames the same really? Only thing that separates them is boost vs non-boost?

Can anyone explain to me what will happen if I put a 184x44 shox on this, together with a 140mm fork?
Will it totaly ruin the geometry or what's gonna happen?
Only asking because I can get a new 184 shox for free..  :D
It quite simply wont fit.

Oh, that easy huh? Thanks for the info  :)

Nextie - havent heard about them. They make decent stuff?

Will check out the store, I think 300$ is cheap enough to give it a try!

Thx!
