TanTan - Seraph FM121 XC 120mm Full Suspension 2024 model

They seem to be cartridge bearings. I would suggest using blue Loctite (or other brand stuff) on every pivot bolt. They can come loose while riding.

do you have photo bearing?

I'm having trouble finding photos of bikes with this frame online. I'm really interested in buying it. If I understand correctly, it's been out for quite some time, about a couple of years? The seller also offered me the handlebars, they look really nice, hb005

I ordered a fm121 size xl today I will let you know everything when it arrives. Hopefully soon!

Seraph started selling the frame on Aliexpress https://aliexpress.ru/item/1005008177675001.html

I ordered a large from TanTan via WhatsApp for $733 shipped (headset and thru axle, UPS air shipping, paypal fees). The frame received some sort of impact in shipping on the top of the head tube and is visibly cracked. TanTan was quick to respond, requested I file a damaged item claim with UPS (they did as well), and they say it should take about 20 business days to get another front triangle ready to ship to me.

Can someone take the frame apart and show the bearings, bolts, axles?

[michael_pappas]

Hopefully they pack the frame(s) better. The headtube just had a layer of foam wrap and bubble wrap so it's understandable how the damage occurred. I would say thoroughly check the frame when you get it.

good evening, this morning, vivian from tantan wrote to me and sent me the photos of my frame just out of the paint shop.
I can't wait for it to arrive.
Do you know where I can find stickers for my fork and fox ammo in a color that suits?
I'm happy to take suggestions.

I suggest you also get blue thread compound and use it on every pivot and shock bolt. They have come loose while riding. The only negative thing I have found so far is the chainstay tire clearance on side of the rear tire. Luckily I don´t like mud fests..

Same shop has rear shock decals.

This might just be your frame, on the TanTan youtube channel, it looks just like the one from your pictures 


What was the price of the frame? Did you have to pay all in advance?

[Specialf.]

good morning. sad update. my frame hasn't arrived yet. it seems that the package is missing here in italy.
i am continuously contacting the italian transport company dpd but they are not giving me any answers about it.
vivian has been hopeful for now and has given me the telephone numbers for assistance but i fear that i will no longer receive my frame.
to make the situation worse now vivian is on holiday for the chinese new year so he is no longer answering, i feel abandoned by everyone, i don't know what to do.
now exactly 2 months have passed since the date of the order and payment, the painting time had already been about 1 month, now problems with the shipping and finally the chinese new year.
this thing is bothering me a lot.
what do you think?
