Tideace FS-AM831 Full Review & Fix(Long) BXT Meinier SPCycle Santa Cruz Chinese China MTB
The biggest issue for this frame is the Lower Link. Everything else I can get over, no little fender for the shock, no OEM Chainstay protector, no downtube storage, why a two tab ISCG and not a three tab ISCG? The lower link is missing two bearing preload tubes, one at the frame and one at the swing arm. The Lower Link needs to be re-cast so that there is no air gap between the bearings at the swing arm. And while you're at it make a 2nd longer casting for the L and XL bikes so that the chainstay can be longer on the bigger bikes. And Lastly make the spacing at the shock 30mm. This could be a good frame at a good price with a re-engineered Lower Link, but as it stands, I would stay away, unless you have access to a machine shop. I am confident that this is the best performing Tideace FS-AM831 in the world because of the changes I have made. if you think it's not, please comment why. At 22:41 I inserted a picture of Brian Cahal riding a Chinese enduro prototype with a Cascade Components link, it would seem they wanted their bikes suspension kinematics to work the first time out. I wanted to put the audio in but couldn't figure out how to insert without overwrite, being a boomer and all.
