If so from which manufacturer and is it any good?

I'd like something light in 29er format but don't want to pay £££.

Cheers
Rich

I bought a Chinese carbon cx frame and forks from Ican Bikes this time last year. Quality seems good and it is still going strong. I bought mine via Aliexpress. For £300ish it was a great buy.

In all fairness, probably any other XC carbon frame would have broken:

I'm interested in this as its likely to be the best way for me to afford a more xc frame and I'm a bit of a lightweight when it comes to riding anyway! Most of the head angles seem a bit steep though, I'm looking for 69 or so.

In all fairness, probably any other XC carbon frame would have broken:

I just see someone who can't ride a bike that well!!!
