I'd love to order this frame but I'm going to let someone else be a guinea pig for me. The inconsistencies re: geometry are quite worrisome.

How much forward offset do the STs on these frames have?
Trying to figure out the effective STA.

The reach on that frame is insanely short for a bike that purportedly takes 53mm tires. You would almost certainly have toe overlap with your front wheel on any tight turns.

Definitely looking forward to seeing these. Looks like a nice combo of some the aero qualities of the FM316 with the tire clearance of the 346. And, kind of splitting the difference re: geometry.

Is the G028's downtube aero-ish in shape? Or is it more of a rounded rectangular solid kind of shape?
Hard to tell from the pictures.

Component Deals & Selection / Re: AliExpress F28 / DT 180 front hub?
« on: March 04, 2021, 09:46:44 PM »
They want $120 for it, plus shipping.
I can order a Newmen Fade for that price. Granted, it’s 110g, but it has a warranty and good, high quality bearings. Or a DT 240 for $10 more.

Component Deals & Selection / AliExpress F28 / DT 180 front hub?
« on: March 03, 2021, 03:59:27 PM »
I was taking a look at various wheel and hub options on AliExpress and stumbled across these wheels.
Nothing about them was particularly impressive to me, but then I saw the front hub. Keep scrolling down until you get to the "Hub" section. They state that it's a ~95g, CL, SP, Boost front hub. It looks REALLY similar to the current version of the 180. To me, a front hub is a thing that a rotor attaches to, attaches to a fork, and houses bearings. I care about it a whole lot less than a rear hub. And, I'm perfectly fine with swapping out the bearings it it to something of higher quality down the line. So, this really intrigues me.

Anyone ever seen this sold separately? I'm going to send them a message and see if they will sell it on its own.

29er / Re: 29er XC Hardtail - Boost - Modern Geometry
« on: January 30, 2021, 02:21:49 PM »
Given that a 34 SC has an A-C of 530mm, and the listed geometry of the LCM908 is with a 490mm A-C, it will change significantly with either a 100mm or 120mm fork. They are using the equivalent of an 80mm 29er fork for their geo; those aren’t even in production anymore.
I.e., that 69.5 degree HTA becomes a 67.5 degree HTA with a 120 up front.

29er / Yeti ARC/Modern 29er HT?
« on: January 24, 2021, 05:09:55 PM »
Anyone seen anything that resembles the geometry of the 2021 Yeti ARC?
It’s a nice blend of modern reach and HTA without being extreme or overly heavy.

That Carbonda FM936 REALLY looks like a NS copy. Interesting frame.

Vendor Discussion & Reviews / Wind-Vane Cycling Rims
« on: November 24, 2020, 12:39:13 PM »
Has anyone bought from this vendor? I'm specifically looking at their 29mm inner width 29er rims. "Lifetime warranty", but as far as I can tell, they have 0 reviews and appear to be a brand new vendor.

Component Deals & Selection / Re: Syncros Fraser iC SL / Scott Spark 900 handelbar 90$ instead of 399$
« on: November 15, 2020, 06:43:55 PM »
I ended up order one in 80mm, -25, 740mm.
Kind of perplexed by the appearance. Does not really resemble the "Nino" handlebar. Much more curvaceous, for lack of a better word, instead of the more angular appearance that his handlebar has. The other, cheaper versions of this bar actually bear a closer resemblance to the Syncros bar, with the main difference being the barrel nuts used on this one and the cheaper version using nuts molded into the stem/bar.
I'm wondering if the -17 degree option bears more of a likeness to the original version.
Also, I could not get my right side shifter (Gripshift) onto the handlebar. I'm asking the seller to resolve it; we'll see what happens.
