Jake Beach Posted October 27, 2008 Report Share Posted October 27, 2008 (edited) I like the frame shape of the second one. It looks a bit like a kamel. Edited October 29, 2008 by onzat-comprider Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

that NBR dude Posted October 28, 2008 Report Share Posted October 28, 2008 Darn, they bring out the B 4 like that, just after I bought mine in plain silver. Typical timing Oh well... crack open the spray paint... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

monkeyseemonkeydo Posted October 29, 2008 Report Share Posted October 29, 2008 I like the frame shape of the second one. It looks a bit like a kamel. A bit? A bit?! Why so short chainstay's on the 20's? If you're going to rip off someone's designs at least keep their proven geometry... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ben_travis Posted October 29, 2008 Report Share Posted October 29, 2008 Why so short chainstay's on the 20's? If you're going to rip off someone's designs at least keep their proven geometry...Surely the camel has not been out long enough to be a proven geometry? The bionics might ride amazingly dave!

Who knows, until you try one!Well the entire Kamel geo might not be 'proven', but 362 chainstays are used (I think) on the Kamel, Pr, Ti, Adamant, Gu, Czar, Hydroxx, MBK and Echo Lite's to name a few so having such short chainstay's just seems to be a bit random. I've ridden Andy Green's B-4 and it feels like you're going to loop out whenever you try and kick... I'm sure you'd get used to it but I don't think you'd ever be able to put as much power through the frame for gaps and the like compared to a frame with longer stays.

Also a slightly lower bb will help too.I personally prefer it that way. But i know what you mean. Least with the shorter back end, the bike rides flickier for quick lift ups. It is quite silly though as rider style and height come heavily into play. It's all in the mind really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
