I just saw this today and rushed over here to post it. Looks like I was late!

So who's going to try one?

They're not even trying to be subtle about who they are ripping off here. Check out the promotional material.


And several of the images on the listing are lifted straight from Scott's website.

Feels kind of dirty that it's this blatant. Right down to the paint scheme.

nothing new.....they did the same with the Lexon GFX (Gravel) ....used the promo pictures from Scott Addict gravel.

That's quick! Even including Scott marketing material  :o

2500gr for the 15" version feels kind of heavy, otherwise a very nice frame!

Weight includes the rear shock, Rock Shox Delux Select+ which should weight around 350gr.

BTW Lexon might have some issues in terms of patent:
It is really too similar to Scott, I wouldn't be surprised if they will be forced to stop the production.
If not, I will buy one!  ;D

Ok, who told these jokers I was looking for a new frame?  ;D Guess it's "wait & see" now, and see who's going to be first.

are we hoping for too much from the Chinese hardware on this?

Exactly my thinking.

Patent?? in China? good luck with that  ::)

there is actually a Lexon Spark, but it's FM356

Looks interesting.  But I'd want confirmation that this is not one of their bikes made by TopCarbon, after the farce with the Lexon / TC gravel frames, and the non-existent support from either party to the affected customers.

Lexon has published conflicting data for the bottom bracket and the weight for the Spark frame. BB86 vs BB92 & 1230g vs 2915g.

Should change the title to Lexon Spirit or half the thread will be about the Lexon Spark.
