How many people are running this frame with 120mm fork?  That would slack out the HTA to 66deg.  Which is slacker than my current 130/140mm trail bike.  Curious how ppl find it with 120mm.  Also I did notice the BB drop is pretty low on this bike, so the 120mm can help raise the BB.

i use 120mm fork, fits this frame great

Run a 120mm fork here as well.  Started with a 100mm fork and just felt a little lacking on some of the steeper and gnarlier stuff.  A lot more pedal strikes as well for me with the shorter fork - running 170mm cranks.

I will say the steering can get a bit slow if you run a longer stem with that slacker HTA - probably anything over 50-60mm long.  But a little more speed and lean will really wake it up, this geo likes to go fast IMO - up, down or flat.

Run also a 120mm fork.

Je reviens sur le sujet du verrouillage de l'amortisseur.
Personnellement je règle l'amortisseur avec beaucoup de sag pour que le vélo soit souple en descente et donc j'utilise souvent le verrouillage en montée (scott spark).
Donc question: la position de l'amortisseur "tête en bas" sur le FM936 ne positionne-t-il pas le levier de verrouillage trop loin? De la mon hésitation avec le FM909.
Merci

it is almost impossible to use the switch on the shock absorber on the go

Hi at all

actually, i'm just a silent reader. but in this case, i want to inform you about my experience.

I ordered directly from Carbonda the FM936 in "superlight". after arriving, the problems began.

1. was the frame in "XL" around the 2200g...
2. the bore of the rear end was not 12.0mm, it was 12.70 - 12.80mm
3. the distance at the linkage was on the lower side 22.2mm on the upper side 23.0mm

No idea if I have a friday afternoon model or the manufacturer has a bigger quality problem.

Did you contact them about that ?

1) There are some more carbon on the XL  , and I don't remember seeing here someone asking officially what size is the announced weight and what parts that includes.

2) Is it 12.7 a problem ?
If I remember well, the hanger is the nut, the axle just passing through the frame.

3) Do you mean where the shock is mounted ?

Hi Carbonazza

Well, its my 2. FM936 frame. I build it in Feb. 2021 in Size "L"
There was absolut no problems. it was one of the best frame ever bild.

1. the 2200g is the weight of the "normal" frame, not of the "superlight". from "M" to "L" or from "L" to "XL" its nomal about 50-75g. not more.
2. I stay in contact with Wing from Carbonda and they are checking the quality controll
3. yes, the 12.7mm are a problem. the hub is all the time moving. there is a tolerence about 12.10mm +-0,05mm (if im right  )
4. yes, is there where the shock is. is not a big problem. but the quality controll must check thise...

greats

Ilya, do you use 170 or 175 mm cranks? And if 175, how it feels regarding hitting obstacles (I mean pedal strikes)?
