Combining different brands into a single Muni

Just a little sidenote: the QX elven is also a KH saddle, but with the big adventage that it doesn’t turn into a sponge after rain or falling into a puddle, which can be very nasty with the Fusion Freeride

Thanks for the explanation!
I was also considering the Fusion Street saddle, but I assume that it’ll be made out of the same material as the Freeride.

And another one: a little weight comparement between the Mad4one frame and the QX rgb frame alle weights without screws and without bearing caps:
Mad4one M: 630 g
QX rgb 27,5: 533 g

Yes, I’ve seen the difference, but I really like the colors that the Mad4One is available in, and the QX is made out of 6061 aluminum whereas the Mad4One is 7005 aluminum. Since 7005 can be used to make lighter frames and it isn’t lighter, it has to be stronger (assuming that it has been designed properly). It is also reinforced at the crown to prevent breaking the frame.

I think it should work. If this is your plan, I’d get the whole wheel built by QX. That way there’s no messing about with getting the spokes right.

Although I have some experience with building wheels, and I have all the equipment in house to build my own wheels, I don’t think there’s much to gain here from doing it myself as I expect that these wheels are already hand built to begin with.
