I feel you like orange  ?

Thank you!
Actually, this build started from fork. I bought it on local market for a good price in the beginning of winter. And on the last stage I noticed orange grips in local shop and thought:  "Hm... why not?" Now it feels good. Orange feels sunny and not so gloomily like all black)

My is also ready)
9.1 kg is this setup. Size XL

Nice builds! Be careful with Hardrock Cranks: inner bolt is aluminum so it is easy to break it if you are overtightening cranks.
I already got frame and planning to build the bike soon.
Also got mine with flat mount adapter... but I thought it is FM 160 => PM 160. Are you sure it is FM to PM 180?

Happy day... for me at least, as I was not particularly happy trying another seller recently..
Carbonda is selling again a hardtail that in addition has an interesting geometry.
The FM-1306A, anyone ordered it already ?

Thank you very much for sharing info about 1306A.
I ordered one size XL and it's already shipped. I hope I will get it in January.
I wonder why there is no information about it on Carbonda web site?
Can you please share your experience with this frame?

Hi all,
I have a question regarding bearing replacement.
I run FM936 for 2 seasons and 7k km quite hard (trail riding, XC-racing) in dry conditions.
Last year I serviced bearings in workshop with new grease. This November I broke shaft of the rear shock and went to another workshop for repair and they told me that bearings required change. I do not trust them because they invent a problem even when there is none.
Thus, the question is: how long do stock bearings last? Is it the time for replacement after 7k km?

The only reason for doing this would be for easier reach of the adjuster/lock out when your on the bike but it wouldn't be possible to do with a trunnion shock.

Hopefully this made it clearer?

I think you can do it without any problem. For standard 165x38 shocks direction doesn't matter. I fitted my same way as trunion only because of lockout direction.

Nice!
I also have DT Lockout lever.  I think it is the best you can buy

I checked geometry one again and it looks like an issue with frame design. For frame size L seat post insert length is only 170. So with KS LEV with 175 travel seat tube with installed dropper post will be approx. 530. It is toooo much.

Frame is listed on LoghtCarbon site again.
Whey are not selling it to single customers, right?

It is attached at the side, but with the 90° pipe, you can have it as you want.

This shift housing probably can help. I ordered one and will see how it fit but I have much more room with Fox 165x38

where did you write?

This one can be interesting also. 170 is to much but 150 is enought for enduro bike)

Can I use 165x38mm on the back with 100mm front?

Will I see any difference when using 38 between 40mm?

I got 165x38 shock on this frame. You have to use it with special threaded axle. It took one hour of local mechanic's work

Another brand selling Carbonda fm936 with their name.

Sizes are interesting. L from Carbonda is XL from Mendiz

from now carbonda sells it too, FM909

http://www.carbonda.com/mountain/full-suspension/130.html

I also noticed it. I think for tecky riding FM936 will be better because of lower center of weight. But this one has room for 2 bottles and is lighter.
