ICAN P1 27.5er 650B Plus Carbon Fiber Full Suspension Frame Mountain Boost Trail Mountain Bike Rear Spacing 12x148mm (XS)

I recently received my ICAN P1 frame and have been riding it for about 3 weeks. I ordered mine direct from the ICAN website/China and the process was perfect. I was able to have the frame prepared in one of their standard colors, but without any decals. So far, I get a lot of compliments on the color and a lot of riders ask what kind of bike it is. The frame is light (as you would expect for carbon) and solid. I set mine up with parts from another bike that I had lying around, but I have made a few changes to optimize the ride. This bike is a great cornering whip and it has no problem taking on most technical sections, chunky rock gardens, and climbs. I have gone out of my way to jump/drop off of anything that I would with my other bike (2017 Yeti SB 5.5) and, honestly, this bike feels a little more solid. The bike is set up with 130mm rear and 140mm front travel and I’m running it as a mullet with 2.5″WT tires front/back. Two bits of advice: This bike is really best with 170mm cranks and a Fox DPS does not fit in any orientation. 175mm cranks will just barely clear the seat stays and it leads to heel strikes on the chain stays. This went away with the 170’s. I switched to a Rockshox Monarch RT3 on this bike and it fits and feels perfect. I know a lot of people are concerned about ordering directly from China, but ICAN has been making carbon frames for years (at least 5 as far as I know). I’ve now had two friends break their expensive brand-name frames, so I’m not sure about the argument that branded frames are better quality. My point: GET ONE OF THESE FRAMES! The money you save can be used for all the other parts you won’t get with an expensive brand name bike at a similar price point.
