SRAM AXS - Ebay Seller Italy A few weeks ago I purchased the SRAM AXS Upgrade Kit from an eBay seller in Italy.  At the time it seemed like a bit of a gamble but with eBay buyer protection I went ahead and placed the order.  Including shipping and tax to the US, total was $798, about $270 less than retail + tax.  Item shipped fast and arrived in 4 days.  They've raised the price by $40 but still not a bad deal for anyone who wants to upgrade to the ultimate in drivetrain technology.

Re: Carbonda fm936 Thoughts
Nice! Finally a non-black frame!
The BTLOS wheelset looks great. Good price for what it offers. Also weight ist nice! Why do you want M8100 hubs over DT350? I'd always go with DT. And when there is some money left, take 54T ratchet. Ones had the 240s but not worth the higher pricing. I can live with 40g more in the wheelset but save 200$.
What does BTLOS charge for no-tax-shipping?
Thanks. Standard shipping is free (seems so i think) and they write 'sample' and a low value so even if you do get charged VAT then it's not much. I wanted the m8100 because of the silent hub, plus they're actually cheaper than DT swiss whilst having a similar weight.

Re: Carbonda fm936 Thoughts
@ all who are running this frame in XL:

I'm using a 60mm stem and 740mm flatbar. Will the 1700mm brake hose be enough in length? Or better getting the 2000mm one?

Size L frame, 60mm stem, 780mm bars, 1700mm rear hose, lots of slack.  I was in a hurry to get the bike running and didn't cut anything, could probably trim 100-150mm easy
Thanks man!

@all
Are you running full housing inside the FM936 frame for rear derailleur?

You have to run full housing for rear der, brake & dropper.

Re: Carbonda fm936 Thoughts I've been riding a 42.5 mm stroke shock on my size L frame since March. Plenty of clearance with the shock bottomed out, never had any contact between the seat stay brace and seat tube. Not even any semblance of worry that it might happen, because it won't.
And yes, I have bottomed. I jump the thing, come off drops, ride it like a MTB should be ridden, not just on some lame gravel trails.
I ride cross country trails, flow trails, trails with natural technical rocks, roots, drops, jumps terrain, sanitized bike park trails with manufactured jumps and drops. I'll take the natural terrain trails all day every day over manufactured bike park stuff.
And I'm 225 lbs.

But sure, you guys keep on going on about your hypotheticals. In the real world, the 42.5 mm stroke works beautifully with the frame.
