Generally speaking, when Ican sells a Carbonda frame, it’s coming from the same Flybike factory and should be identical.

Do you have information to support that? I think they are different.

IIRC FM1001 stands for "flybike mold 1001". Flybike makes molds and frames. AFIAK, Carbonda and ICAN could be using different carbon or a different carbon layup in the frame.

ICAN lists the P13 medium at 2.65kg and Carbonda lists the medium 1001 at 2.3kg.

Lighter is better IMO, usually means smarter layup or better materials.

It has gone a bit quiet in here... How is everyone getting on with their FM1001 frames?

I've done about 2000km on mine, not high on mileage but descended about 45000m of very rough, rocky, natural trails. Still one of the best bikes I've ever had.
