G'day all. First post in the forum and looking forward to jumping further down the Chinese frame rabbit hole
Anyway, I'm looking to build a shorter travel trail bike, ideally with 130-135r/140-150f travel. I've found a couple frames but really want to see all that's on offer. I've been looking at;
- lightcarbon lcfs958 (only concerns are I've heard quality control sometimes isn't great and the seatpost insertion on my size is only 200mm)
- carbonda CFM-1001 (not sure if there's any difference between this and the FM1001 I've seen mentioned on the forum)
- Ican p13 which appears to be identical to the CFM1001
- tantan fm198 (seems to be more of an XC frame in all honesty but the frame I did want isn't available anymore)
Are there any frames I'm missing or anything about these frames I've looked at that I should be aware of (good or bad)
Thanks in advance. I look forward to reading the responses
