Its just a flesh wound...

Just ordered the 936 through Wing this week! Added a spare kit on the order as well. Have a Fox Float DPS Performance on the way that I am going to pair with a SID Select+. Have 4 - 5 months of winter here yet for me to spend building it up. First time I will of built a frame up on my own - looking forward to it!

I have a Vitus Rapide FS CRX. I'm trying to find out if the 120mm linkage will work with my bike. I've emailed Carbonda and they were completely unhelpful (just gave me the price of the linkage but said they could not confirm it would work with my bike). I've trawled a lot of this huge thread but can't find any 100% confirmation that the 120mm frame is exactly the same and can be upgraded just by replacing the linkage. Has anyone actually upgraded their Vitus successfully?

Hello
Would you happen to know which screw is needed for the new rocker arm?

Hi everyone,

I've been wanting to try a Chinese carbon frame for a while, but I'm not the type to just jump on the first one I come across. I've been doing some research, looking at it from the perspective of someone who runs a bike workshop.

Has anyone bought the latest version of the Carbonda FM936? The Chinese manufacturers seem to keep refining their frames, so I'm guessing there may have been some design issues or little quirks that have already been addressed in newer revisions.

I'm not too concerned about the quality of the bolts — I'll probably make my own replacements on my lathe anyway. I'm more interested in the design details and any potential issues with the frame itself.

First of all, does anyone happen to have an boom-draw of the frame? The one I found on the Vitus website doesn't seem to match the current version exactly.

Thanks in advance!
