Wow! What a scare, right?

Have you said anything to the brand? What a mess! The important thing is that you weren't hurt, but that's unacceptable.

I hope they at least refund your money, because I understand you won't want another frame like that.

Mine is working great for now, but I'll keep an eye on everything.

Let us know what the seller says when you hear from them.

Hello Niklass. You should speak to the sales representative so they can send you the correct pins. They don't look as aesthetically pleasing, but I haven't had any problems with the shock absorber looseness since.

I don't think there will be any problems.
They're making modifications like other reputable brands.

I've had it since February, and I honestly haven't had any problems, except for the bearings, which were rubbish.

I certainly haven't measured the rear triangle travel either.

We'll be keeping an eye out for any updates, and I'll keep talking to Rose.

I've spoken with Rose.

She told me it's an upgrade that's in the testing phase. It's a reinforcement for the rear triangle.

When it's finished, I'll contact her to find out if she'll include it for those of us who have already purchased the frame. Although I highly doubt they will.

Do we have a new frame modification?

What do you think?

Hello bangacan,  I have installed the RS bearings.

Having a well-prepared frame and not having a headset designed for it doesn't give you confidence to buy.

I hope you find the headset for it, and that way you can guide other users.

But the headset must come with the frame.

The quote they sent me included it for $15, as did the rear axle, also for $15.

I'm looking forward to it arriving so we can see it.

56mm outer bearings? Isn't that the standard 52mm?

That's a problem when it comes to finding the right routing for both the cable routing and the bearings.

A downside to buying this frame.

This frame has flex points at the seat stays, so you won't be able to move it unless you apply a lot of force, and you'll only be able to do so with your own weight.

I was also scared when it arrived and saw that it wouldn't move. Then, if you stop and think about it and see the angle the seat stays give, it's impossible for them to move.

Once you put the frame and wheels on, you'll see how it flexes with your weight without any problem.

The plastic didn't come with it for me either; it came with a thick cable tie holding the two parts together.

I'll give you the advice we talked about: before assembling it, change all the bearings. They probably even arrived painted... the frame is quality, but the bearings are very, very poor.

Thank you @ludo I'll be attentive and await your response.

It's true that I don't see post-mount calipers on MTB bikes in the Spanish market.

I would like to ask you if this adapter is compatible with your frame and if the flat mount clamp would not touch the chainstays.

Pedimos dos cuadros primera semana de noviembre. Y nos llegaron en Febrero.

Me dijo Rose que habĂ­a muchos pedidos.

Si lo has comprado. Te recomiendo que lo primero que hagas es cambiar todos los rodamientos. Los rodamientos, son todos una basura, muy muy mala calidad

I think the brake caliper is flat-mount...

I was eager to try the frame, but I don't have that brake system. I'm a SRAM Level user.

I don't think many brands mount it like this.

Are there any flat-mount to post-mount adapters?

I saw it last week.

I asked the seller for information.

Here's some pricing information they gave me:

FM358: $680
Headset: $15
Axle: $15

We will use WXY to ship to Spain; the shipping cost is $180/set. The price includes customs tax. You don't need to pay customs tax.

Total cost: $680 + $15 + $15 + $180 = $890 in UD matte or glossy black.
