Peter at xmcarbonspeed is one of the favorites here on the forum if you're talking about suppliers for Chiner frames.

I contact him to quote a mtb wheelset but I refer about to buy a Scott Scale frame, I know it is some OFF-TOPIC.

Thanks to all for the advices !

Maybe Ill go for a 29er Scale 2015-14 frame when 2017 line hits the streets and then prices for the olds drops.

If anyone knows some decent supplier I will be grateful.

SRAM have more flavours than Shimano in MTB drivetrains.

I guess XT is more close to X0 than X9 or an X9 plus.

These Garnier looks very nice.

I bougth in a sale a SIDI Wire Carbon about two month ago. Are in the box waiting for next spring-summer to launch it (here in south is about to start)

I guess boa kind closure is the real thing.

When my Shimano MTB Shoes retires I'll go for a pair of SIDI Drako when in sale.

I know some geometry chinese frames are same as a renowned makers, that's no the question.

I wonder if someone test one of those frames and felt differences to others well know brands.

Don't misunderstand me, I actually own a pair of road chinese wheels and a rigid fork, so Im not against chinese manufacturers.

29er / Scott Scale frame vs Chinese frame
September 05, 2016, 02:44:35 PM
Im a owner of a 2013 710 Scott Scale (650B).

As I race XC Marathon i have to switch to a 29er.
First I consider to buy a new scale, but it is a little fortune for a 2017 Scott RC World Cup, even if a sell my current bike.
Used one is no an option.
I know i can buy a 2015 or 2016 scale frame for a 1.2-1.5K
I love scott scale line, I've been using it for the last four years and guess is the fastest frame in the world.

So a chinese frame came to my mind and the question is:
Is out there a chinese MTB 29er frame so rocket fast as a Scott Scale frame ?

Thank you for you advise !

Hi everybody !

Greetings from Montevideo, Uruguay.
Just start chinese components fever about a couple months ago with a rigid fork for my MTB and a 56mm wheelset for my road bike, both from ican-bicycle.

I actually own a 2013 710 Scott Scale (650B), now with ican rigid fork and converted to 1x11 (original XT cranks + raceface 38T rings)

Im in a XC Marathon races (40, 60 up to 100km some) and a 29er is a must, so want to swap from 27.5 to 29er.
I will post my question about it in the correct section.

Here pictures of both bikes:
