CMC frames are basically a "book" frame. There are literally hundreds, if not thousands of Locosts built to that basic design. Just because CMC dropped off the face of the earth, doesn't mean they frame design was bad. Certainly look into the Aussie mods though. Beyond that, all the other bits such as control arms and pickup points are as unique as the builders. Just one opinion from a CMC (heavily modified) frame builder.
