Chinertown's Holiday Giveaway!

adbl · November 27, 2017, 12:21:42 PM

I currently have three Chiner bikes. A CS-057, DengFu M06 and a DengFu FM-098 road bike. I love all the frames and haven't had any issues with any of them!!!

Right now i'm thinking about building a disc brake road bike so i'm looking at the CS-13-D. That would complete my stable of bikes

My favourite is my CS 057 from xmcarbonspeed.

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

Well... Since I only own one Chiner it definitely has an unfair advantage! My (favorite) CS-036 has put up with a lot of abuse this past year! I'm looking forward to upgrading to GX 1x12 to keep it going this winter!

1) I think I have more than 10 posts (although I've not posted here in a while, guess I've been busy riding my bikes).
2) FB Like (yes).
3) I like the Carbonspeed 29+ frame CS-496. However, if I wanted a FS frame I'd go with the CS-FS27.

Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving holiday, at least those of us in the US anyway.

Don't worry.. I was going to ping you if you hadn't entered by the last day

You are such a nice person!

My favorite would have to be the Ican P8, which I just finished building. (although I have yet to take in on the trails) Fairly modern geometry compared to other chiners.

Got a couple of months on my Ican P9 now and it's great fun.... If I were to build another then it would have to be the FS27.

Spot the new part!!

I am thinking about getting a full-sus 2017 dengfu M06 for the summer season. Will have to do a bit more research to settle my mind, but since this thread is here I will check it later for some good inspiration to steal:) Even now some of you are pointing to frames I didn't know about.

Awesone looking bike! Is GX 1x12 significantly better than this one?

Sorry to deviate the giveaway post !!

I mounted a couple of GX 1x12 recently. Everyone is happy.

They are a very good value for money, compared to the XX1 Eagle( that I run ).
It is about 200g heavier, mainly from the crank.

If you are a Shimano shifting lover, you may feel it differently( I don't ).

The 12 speeds is a game changer.
You do not need to choose between dying uphill( too big chainring ).
Or being dropped by your 2x friends on the flats/downhill( too small chainring ).
And can choose 2T or more than your previous 1x chainring.

In addition, the XX1 version seems to last longer.
My XX1 11sp cassettes were dying at about 9 months.
Here I'm at 12 months and my 3 chains are still good( I rotate them every ~500km )

No worries.. The forum's primary function is bike talk... carry on!

The Ican P9 looks pretty sick but doesn't look to be available yet. If I were to buy today, I would get a Velobuild M-075.

circoloco · December 10, 2017, 07:18:16 AM

I'm still waiting for that 29er with tire clearance for 29*2.6" and a slacker head tube in XL

But today, I would also buy the CS-FS27, in 29er spec.

They already have that. It's the CS-496 from XMCarbonSpeed. Yes it's boost spacing but just put the axle in the 27+/29 short position and run a 120 fork. That will give you 425mm chainstays and a 67.5 degree head angle.
