Re: Carbonda fm936 Thoughts
I have to say I do like the lines of this frame. The ride is fantastic, too. Looks great dude! I love it too. Where are you riding though? The moon? Mars? October 23, 2020, 01:51:34 PM |

Re: Carbonda fm936 Thoughts
Hi guys, Hi, The reach is longer but the seat tube is steeper. What you need to look at is the distance between saddle and handlebar (horizontaly and verticaly) to have a nice riding position. I am 1,78m with 75cm BB to top of the saddle. With a L size and a 40mm stem (what i like to ride), I have the same horizontaly and verticaly position as my Orbea Alma size L with 60mm stem. The main difference is that on steep uphill, with the Orbea Alma, I was seated "on the rear wheel". What means poor handling and struggling to keep the front wheel on the ground. Conclusion : I suggest you take the Carbonda L size. November 05, 2020, 03:12:21 AM |

Re: Carbonda fm936 Thoughts
Then I go for a M.. Thanks! I probably go for SID dampers but DT 232 looks great are there anybody who has mounted a DT R232 and can answer if it’s fits with remote. Looks like the cable is pointing down and I’m worried that there is to little room for the cable routing. January 27, 2021, 09:40:27 AM |

Re: Interesting Aliexpress finds! - good deals, interesting stuff, new products etc!
Simply amazing. My $15.49 USD all carbon, padded, 132 gram saddle arrived today. Appears to be of good quality. (I can't believe that for years, I purchased Sella Italia Flight series saddles for over $100 each.) Can't wait to put it on one of my rides and test how it feels on the sit spots. https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256804373322850.html?spm=a2g0o.order_list.order_list_main.5.1eb11802FW3R9T&gatewayAdapt=glo2usa&_randl_shipto=US January 03, 2023, 12:44:04 PM |

I have this padded saddle on all my bikes. For the price and weight it's an excellent value. So far they've all been holding up with no issue. January 03, 2023, 01:12:54 PM |

Re: Carbonda fm936 Thoughts
You didn't give us the most important information. Maybe 1 or 2 grams Due to the removal of the blue spacer out of the rock shox ultimate deluxe rct The linkage weight is equal. HA = 65,5 ° (measured with digital pitch gauge) The last picture shows the new cheap areo wheelset January 25, 2023, 10:52:03 PM |

Re: Carbonda fm936 Thoughts
A lot of us were running 100/120 and it is a bit different bike at 120/120 now with the new link. Should be VERY similar geo to 100/100, just more suspension and a higher BB. My buddy Michael has both version in his garage. 100/100 (9,4kg) for xc race and marathon. 120/120 (10,4) for every day use. He could now compare both bikes. January 29, 2023, 02:27:46 AM |

Re: Carbonda FM909
@Arno Knell, I've seen you used 70mm stem, why haven't you chosen L size frame and shorter stem instead? @Eneen, the large frame is to large for me :-) For the main usage (xc/marathon) this setup should be fits perfect for me. For down country i will use my fm936 with the new 120mm linkage (size m stem 45mm). January 29, 2023, 05:56:39 AM |

Re: Carbonda fm936 Thoughts
Guys, I'm so glad I ran into this forum! I just recently started to "think outside" tipical mtb brands and decieded to take a chance at some chinese mtb full sus carbon frame. From what I've saw, fm936 seems to get most praise. @volan, super light frame price 795,00 usd. standard frame price 680,00 usd. I placed my orders via alibaba app. response time (same day of enquiry) shipping cost (door to door including tax) 195,00 usd for one frame. shipping cost for two frames 260,00 usd.
