Carbonda FM909

[d3xophen]

Epic in M corresponds quite good to 909 in S with a 120mm fork. When you just look for the frame . If you want to exchange the 70mm stem work a shorter stem the M is also a choice... but the integrated bar is only available 60mm minimum length.
Your choice depends on what you want to do.. XC bikes have a bit longer stems I guess whereas trail bikes have rather shorter ones 35/40/50.. but with the latter you can't go for the Carbonda cockpit..keep that in mind.
Try bikestats to compare.  NS bikes uses the 936 frame, for their "synonym", 936  has the same geometry.. there is a 100mm as well as 120mm setup for front travel.

I will use SID ultimate SL (100mm) fork from my old bike and for XC purpose only.

finally finished my build. just in time

How did you manage in front brake cable to go through the headset and handlebar? Since others are not using like this.
I still didn't ask carbonda for the integrated handlebar. So, I don't know about this is available or not.

Rad! What length fork is that?

[d3xophen]

Does someone use 165x42.5 for this frame?
Does carbonda supporting mounting hardware?
The following shock is not cable right. I dont want with cable.

I believe there are a couple of people using 42.5 shocks but I would also like a definitive answer and their experience.
For my FM936, the frame came with the Trunnion bolts and bolt for the eyelet. You will need to supply the spacers/adapters for the eyelet.
That shock (at least the pictures) has a manual switch, not cable.

I think, 120mm. It is Fox SC 34. So far, I have not seen this 100 mm fork from anyone.
--------------

I also faced the problem of the backlash of the rear wheel due to the axle being too long. It just rests against the bolt of the deraileur hanger and does not pull the hub in rear triangle to the end. Moreover, my axle was not from the Carbonda, but was cutted according to their sizes. For a temporary solution to the problem, I used a thick plastic washer.

Hey!

Sorry for the long reply, I rarely visit this forum)

I use a Chinese copy of the Gemini Kastor steering wheel. (https://ridegemini.com/en/tienda/kastor-en/)   (https://clck.ru/gun3z)

I am very radical in choosing a bike. I really wanted to have
the longest possible wheelbase and I love short stems very much.

Accordingly, with a height of 174cm, I bought an L frame and put a handlebar on it with a 10mm offset. I really like this control, I really do not like long stems.

Now the fit on the bike is set up and I am very satisfied

Why you like so long wheelbase?

[azuzu501]

Why you like so long wheelbase?

because I'm not an XC rider, I rarely race XC, I don't need top speed, but I love trail riding and love the bike's great stability.

Large wheelbase for comfortable trail riding

You might think that a trail bike would be better for me, but I live in a big city and I have to travel a lot on asphalt to get to interesting places.  in the city, a trail bike is not as comfortable as an XC

I'm still waiting for my first ride. I hope there will be a big difference 

Where are you from Poland? Maybe Mazovia?
I am looking for someone from PL who already has this frame to check the size before buying.

I guess it's not really an issue, seen others do that.
