Reviews & Ratings
The ICAN FL1 is a lightweight carbon road disc brake frameset, typically priced around $660-$750 for the frame alone, with additional costs for handlebar and shipping. It weighs approximately 795g for the frame (size 54 paintless matte finish) and builds into complete bikes around 6.85-7.2kg. The frame uses T47 bottom bracket, EPS molding process, and has faced brake mounts and bottom bracket. It's ordered directly from China with responsive customer service (Crystal, Sherry, Melody, Linda). The geometry is similar to Specialized Aethos/Tarmac, with tire clearance supporting 32mm GP5000 tires (measuring 34-35mm actual width).
