Modern chinese carbon hardtail

Hiya all,

I've got a reasonable amount of nice bits that'll build into a lightweight XC hardtail.

I don't want to spend a fortune on a frame so I've looked at Chinese carbon frames but the ones I've seen have older style geometry.

Is there a modern spec one similar to a scott scale?

Chinertown is a useful. I looked towards the end of last year and couldn't find anything that was long enough without a huge seat tube. Even finding a frame with less than a 67 degree head angle was a struggle. I ended up buying a Ragley Big Al just before the Chiggle fire sale.

Might be worth a look if you've got a short torso and long legs.
