Greetings Posted April 2, 2008 Report Share Posted April 2, 2008 Measured where the wheel is at the moment (18:15 gear ratio, new chain) (possibly 381 if splitting hairs)AdsCan one get 18:16 into that?Also how much does it weigh?Seriously considering getting one of these, that is just perfection in every way.

Not sure about the 71.5 head angle though, would prefer it if was at least 72.Bessell managed it with an old chain... brand new one wasn't gonna have it I think 17:15 would work fine though.Weight is 10.4kg.The Head angle is 71.5, but the forks have 35mm offset, 10mm less than most which effectively makes the head angle 72.5... hard to explain but I'm sure you can fathom it!

notknown Posted April 3, 2008 Report Share Posted April 3, 2008 just a quick update. got the bike today and managed to get a good couple of hours on moor after some minor fettling with the beast. as some of you may know i got on the bike coming from a gu le?(light one) instantly you could feel how much stiffer the frame was, just out of the first pedal stroke, the power goes straight to the groun... and having a stiffer brake with no booster than i ever had on the gu with a booster. im gunna admit it, i was a bit skeptical about the horizontal dropouts, having had an adamant with them and never having any luck with correct wheel positioning and it moving all the time. but i put the wheel in, EASILY got it to where it needed to be, did it up and it hasnt moved 1 little bit, even after a few fair drops and flipping over the bars off a fair rock :$ the first 30mins on it were interesting, working out where my wheels were, seems they sit abit different to the gu. but after the brakes were bedded in and all the bolts had been re tightened i seemed to settle right in to the bike... i never had the feeling i was settled riding the gu, it was always i was on the bike not i was controling it. the hydrox is so different, to be settled on a bike after 45 mins must mean somethings right. everything was easier, from small tech to gaps, ups etc. i know its 2 hours of riding (fairly solid 2 hours on my own on dartmoor ) but i can honestly say i would pay £600 for the frame, so at £495 or what ever they are they are a bargain. if you feel like something needs refreshing with your riding seriously consider one. god i sound like a second hand car sales man, but as some of you may know, if i dont like something i wont keep it to myself and if i love something even more will hear hopefully have a video up after the w.e, i will say it on here so i have some incentive to get the camera out...if anyone sees me out on it, dont hesitate to ask for a ride, i know there arent many about but dont blame me if it ends up costing you £500 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
