Hi,
I'm Draz, from Turkey. I currently ride a "aggressive" hardtail and own small shop for our community. I come across this forum after realizing an EU/US brand frames are 4-5 times more expensive than what they actually cost. Amazing community so far... Currently awaiting order from LightCarbon FS947. I will share my experience from receiving the frame, building to compare it with my hardtail as quality wise. Also planning to paint the frame and i need help... Probably going to consult an auto body shop as well..

Hey guys! mdc302 here from SE Tennessee (U.S.) and glad to a part of this very well managed forum. I have been riding mostly MTB and some road for over 25 years of my adulthood. Have spent much $ on Trek bikes over the years (ex. Fuel 98 carbon, Madone SL carbon, etc) from our local friend/bike shop. Upon much research the past few years I recently purchased and built an FM1001 frame via Carbonda. Thanks to this forum I'm one of a growing community that can help myself & others save serious $ and get out on the trail, gravel, and/or road! Look forward to much more on here

Hello fellow Aliexpressers.  Yesterday, I received an email from Titus regarding a full suspension TI frame that uses a flex stay.  I was researching the design and ran across a thread posted on this forum.   I am amazed that in all these years of purchasing frames and components from Aliexpress, I never ran across, or even knew that this forum existed.  Great find.  Now I am hooked and will be reading up on perspectives about Chinese frames and components.  I might even be able to contribute now and again because I have made hundreds of purchases of bicycle parts via Aliexpress.

Heya - Scott from the PNW here.  I wanted to get back into mountain biking after many years off and picked up a 2017 BMC hardtail.  After a few years, I'm finding that I want a FS that is more stable on the downhills, and found this forum in my search. 

I also recently took over https://mountainbikereviewed.com and am looking for a project to document on the site.

Hi. Just joined last night (Fri 13th) and I'm looking to build a gravel frame over the next few months.

I've been looking at the options, but i think I need some guidance in regards to how all of this works in terms of importing to canada and what not.

Built a Trials bike 15 years ago and want to build up a bike again.

Hi everyone! I just landed on this forum, which I found recommended on an Italian forum MTB mag Forum.
I'm Italian, I'm 23 and I've been riding mtb for 8 years and I love this sport.
I'm trying to build my first mtb from scratch with a chinese frame.
Sorry for my English!

Thank you all for the welcome!

Hi all, i'm 36, MTB-ing since I can remember.
Mostly had trail bikes, from a full-sus to a current AL hardtail with 130mm. I'm building the bikes myself now for almost 10 years.
I don't know if it's the years coming to me or what, but I find myself running more XC stuff than actual agreesive trail riding.
So I am converting my bike from trail bike to a down-country XC bike (sorry to those who are allergic to bike industry making up new names to sell us more stuff).
The target is to make it lighter in the first step - changing the 130mm Pike to a Sid Ultimate 120mm, replacing the AL wheelset with a Elitewheels carbon ones and XC tires.
I'm also looking into a carbon frame, this year or maybe next.
