Ash-Kennard Posted December 8, 2007 Report Share Posted December 8, 2007 it needs a shorter headtube and the top and down tubes to be closer together, your front end just looks miles too high Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan@Trials-uk Posted December 8, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 8, 2007 Yeh, I was saying to Mike last night when I was building it, very similar to the KOT, and the headtube is abit to long(N), but I guess they had to have a long one to have the design (The top/ down tube joing)Frame is really light, which is why I went for it, as the TP is a Machine and about 400g heavier,The ride is nice on the first go, but I will change a few things to change the ride position, along with some other parts to save even more weight!DOB Mag Rims = Jam:) under 1000g for a pair, nice large rear braking surface and very deep rim design (Mike Singleton is currently testing one out, and from our ride it does look pretty good)I will try to get a few of these built up for pictures this coming week(Y) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

manuel Posted December 9, 2007 Report Share Posted December 9, 2007 JoeMaher said: +1dont like it - good idea - get rid of all the naff cnc bits but it looks gash - the cruvy downtube with curvy top tube looks silly - and end of the day its a KOT without the good dropouts ? I wouldnt be surprised if the weight was in the right ballpark at 1700 grams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jason222 Posted December 11, 2007 Report Share Posted December 11, 2007 I like it a lot. I might get one in the future. I'll probably wait and try my friend's 07 Pure to see if I like the +35 rise to compare with the GU. I don't think this has been said yet, but it reminds me of a koxx boxx...
