Anyone have an idea what bike this frame is roughly based on?

I haven't seen any other bike like this. There might be some resemblance to the Nukeproof Giga which also uses a linkage driven single pivot design.

StefanB:s LCFS713 - Ruopsok 1382 Here are some images of my Light Carbon LCFS713 bike in size M.

This is my 6:th frame and build from Light Carbon and I am very happy with the quality of their products.

The LCFS713 frame is from 2019, replaced with the LCFS947 2021 and of course I have built a LCFS947 as well.

But I like the lines of the LCFS713  and the reach is a little shorter, maybe more suitable for women (my wife). This is the first frame i ordered painted from Light Carbon and i think they have done a nice job.

Re: FM1002 / FM1166 - 150mm frame My large frame arrived today in perfect condition, nicely packaged. I’ll start my own build thread soon but will have a few questions for the general thread first.

Starting with: I’d been planning to start with a solid post to get my height dialed before installing a dropper but am hesitant to remove the dropper cable guide.

Any suggestions on how to handle that? I was thinking about leaving it in place and placing the far end of the guide inside the solid post for now.

I won’t really be doing any real rides like that, just pedaling in the driveway to dial in the height —
And even that probably won’t happen for weeks, we’re pretty snowbound in Maine right now.

Re: FM1002 / FM1166 - 150mm frame So, as promised, I tested out different shock strokes and I’m pretty sure it’s not possible to over-stroke the FM1002 at all safely…65mm (163mm travel) definitely doesn’t work, the seatstay bridge hits the seat tube.

62.5 might technically be possible but the bridge is so close at 60mm that I didn’t want to chance it. Even if it worked, there would probably be issues with the rear tire buzzing the saddle/rider on a full 29er setup with a long dropper.

BetterBolts shock bolt for Carbonda FM1001 and FM1002 In the FM1002 thread a couple of us have been talking about possible replacements for the heavy, mediocre quality original 8x40 steel shock bolt and I decided to order a couple of BetterBolts 8x40 shock bolts that they normally sell as part of some of their Transition shock hardware kits.

As I hoped, they seem to fit great and the only difference in shape is a slight protrusion of one side, maybe 2mm further out of the rocker arm than the stock bolt. Not a problem.

All you have to do is email support@betterbolts.com to make the request for an individual bolt, and cost for each was about $15 USD.

Have just placed an order for a 1003 frame  :D

A bit nervous and excited!

Will update everyone how It goes

That’s great news, can’t wait to see one built up and the question of 180 vs 190 front travel addressed (whether the handling is really optimal at 180 etc).

If my FM1002 ordered Dec. 29th last year is any indication, you’ll probably have it in less than a month.

I am curious how the sroad (is it sroad?) cassette will work. I think about it too. I have used up gx casette need to be replaced.
Yep, it's sroad 10-50T. I suppose it to be at least better than ztto 9-50T, but I'll give feedback about how it works not earlier than late spring - here in north-west Russia there are too much snow to test it properly now.
