I carry stock of all parts you may need.

 

Hangers, bars, seat posts, headsets, stems. The lot. And some frames.

Do you by any chance have a dual suspension frame available

Meezo, maybe you can help, what was the reason for Babse buying the FR202? the slackier head angle?

 

and could you maybe explain the difference between the FM53/56/57, all look exactly the same to me in specs.

 

would i be correct by saying, something for mostly xc style would be seat angle of 73* and head tube angle of 71*?

 

thanks

FM053 is 2011 model with external housing for cables and hoses.

FM056 is 2012 model, identical but internal housing.

FM057 is FM056 with 142x12 rear axle.

 

At most shops.

 

Some suppliers have FM056 as either 135QR or 142x12 and FM057 as 650b. Who knows why is the holy grail of dealing with China.
