26er Carbon Framest for V-Brakes?

Does anyone know if anyone makes a carbon (preferably) framesetfor a 26er that still utilizes V-Brakes and has the bosses on the frame?


Thanks

This is basically the only one I could find.
Italian Full Dynamix Spectrum 15" Carbon Fiber 26" Hardtail Bike Frame Disc NEW | eBay

No clue if it's a new frame, or just new-old-stock.

The major manufacturers have quit 26" wheels and V-brakes, so you're basically asking for a unicorn. The one exception might be kids frames, but those are unlikely to be carbon and won't really fit an adult.

Chinese, no-name, carbon is the best bet. You can find some on Alibaba and I'm sure eBay.

There are also some lower end options like the Trek 820.

Thank you for your help but pursued an avenue, taking advantage of some sales over the weekend. I appreciate it.
