[Closed] Looking at a Titus FTM carbon - good or bad?

dantsw13 · 2012-08-11T11:49:26Z

I'm looking to replace my Heckler frame. It's a medium, and I've finally decided its too short for me. I'm 5'11 and 92kg. Whilst my broken bones heal from my Les Gets crash, ive been contemplating a FTM carbon frame. My normal riding is in Sussex - Friston type stuff, hilly not mountainous, mainly natural trails, with the odd jump/drop. Very muddy in Winter - hence the internally routed full length cables of the FTMc are very appealing, as is the price!! I reckon maybe a L with a short stem would suit me. Any feedback from current owners appreciated.

FTM Carbon frame arrived today!!! In the flesh, it looks so sleek and sexy!! To clear up a few points:

1. Headsets. The Superstar integrated tapered headset fits perfectly - sealed bearings for £35!!

2. Internal cable routings. The larger routing takes 3 cables, so dropper, rear brake and rear mech all go inside - that was a pleasant surprise!!

Cant wait to get it built!!
