monkeyseemonkeydo Posted March 7, 2008 Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 Any changes from previous frames or just a new paint job?Edit: appears there are- new style dropouts and internal headset seem new compared to what I've seen of the previous ones.

James Quigley Posted March 7, 2008 Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 Dropouts look different Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danny B Posted March 7, 2008 Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 the main changes are the bolt through rear axle which will improve rigidity and the weight, the bike is almost 200 grams lighter!!!!!!! now weighing in at 1.65kg!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does the frame have to be used with certain hubs then? I take it the actual axle must locate in the dropouts somehow before bolting up...

Ben John-Hynes Posted March 7, 2008 Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 is the rear spacing slightly bigger so a 135 hub can fit inside it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
basher Posted March 7, 2008 Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 is the rear spacing slightly bigger so a 135 hub can fit inside it?The frame will flex enough more than likely to prise it open enough to get the hub in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reine Posted March 8, 2008 Report Share Posted March 8, 2008 holy baloney that's a light frame! and it looks the sex more than most frames. But I bet it will cost a months salary... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew Smith Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 i think it looks CRAP! the old one looked so much better also think the frame dropout idea is bad because that means that the frame probebly wouldnt take hd axle chris king funbolts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
