Re: Another Tan Tan FM10 Alright, so I got confirmation that production of the FM10 in XL is complete!! It's going out for paint (the matte finish), then they expect to be shipping it in 10-12 days. I'm not holding my breath for that estimate, but almost all the other parts are here so I'm ready to get started. To curb my excitement, I'll share a final parts list with each part weighed on my scale and see what we're looking at for a ballpark weight. Shooting for 27lbs, but the internet specs rarely tell the real story. That, and I have NO idea what the XL frame will weigh.

Re: Chinese Santa Cruz/AM831 So maybe moving the discussion onto something more positive, anyone start thinking of build specs yet?  ;D

Re: TanTan FM699 build. Getting there.
Installed the derailleur, some cabling, shifter and now need to bleed the brakes since I cut em down.
Waiting on some new bars and stem but this is pretty much it.

Re: Lightcarbon LCFS937 Build I am waiting for my LCFS958 frame and carbon wheels to start my first build of a FS MTB. I already have a great bike, a Merida One Twenty 800 so I am doing this because I got inspired by this forum.

At first I thought that this would be a "cheap" way to build a nice bike. But now that I am calculating and ordering components I realize that I could have bought a great bike for the same money.

Of course I can build the LCFS958 on a budget, with cheap suspension components, cheap gears, cheap brakes, but then I will not know how good the frame is.

Now I have decided to built it with components of the same level as my Merida One-Twenty 800.

https://www.merida-bikes.com/sv-se/bike/14/one-twenty-800

Then it will be the frame that is the difference in the bikes. I hope and wish, that my LCFS958 is going to be better since it will cost more than my Merida.


I will post images during the process.

Re: Another Tan Tan FM10 Confirming the DPX2 fits. The shock mounts on the fox are closer to the top of the canister, so no problems with swing.

I think they sent the frame 10-12 days after my order. a few days later it arrived in Sweden but then the swedish Postal service took 2.5 weeks to handle it and deliver it.

On the price I also paid VAT and toll costs.

Re: LCFS947 - 160mm 4-bar 27+/29 Yep I did. Now just waiting for them to complete the build and ship it out.

I have some spare xtr brakes and shifter laying around. I still have a backup dropper and cockpit parts.. Manage to score a barely used dpx2 for $250.

What’s left is to get some 29er wheelset and fork. Using the waiting time to save up for those.

Can’t wait for the frame to arrive.
