Rusevelt Posted January 13, 2008 Report Share Posted January 13, 2008 Having looking at this old skool-ish frame, i just wonder what Deng is gonna do for the 2008 Adamant A2 design to compete against the popular high bb 2007-08 GU. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rusevelt Posted January 13, 2008 Report Share Posted January 13, 2008 I think you may be missing the point/s... not at all dude. my point is that the A2 wasnt guaged favorably by forum members because of its high bb. but then high bikes became popular when the 2007 GU Typhoon came on the scene. so was just mearly pointing out (after viewing this bike) if the 2008 Adamant A2 has a chance to be more popular this year with forum members loving the 2008 GU Typhoon. both rigs run the same bb height. Balmans rig is nice if that answers your question. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
