Canardweb Posted June 22, 2010 Report Share Posted June 22, 2010 Hello everybody, I am going to change my frame because I feel that my current one is just too short as I keep growing up (even at 19...). So as I feel better on a long frame (but as I want a high BB), I am going to buy a Neon Bow 2,5 stock frame. But before buying it, I would like reviews or reports if anybody had a problem with it please. Even if you heard of some cracking, let me know! Tarty boys, if you come here, did you had any problem on one before I buy it from you? Thanks to help me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canardweb Posted June 22, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2010 (edited) I'll most likely have your Bionic What do you mean? If you were me, you would keep my bionic frame, or you want to buy my bionic frame? Edited June 22, 2010 by Canardweb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Revolver Posted June 23, 2010 Report Share Posted June 23, 2010 Sounds like he wants to buy it. His signature does say he wants a stock frame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigjames Posted June 23, 2010 Report Share Posted June 23, 2010 Whats the reach of your frame? Compared it to the Neon? Neon: Centre of BB shell to top centre of head tube: 670mm (26.5") Thats what you really want to be comparing, can't imagine the two frames to be that different, but then if you need the extra 20mm then it might be worth it. Thought about chaing the stem or the angle of your bars to increase the cockpit space? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What stem geo should I take (I have a tarty 125*25)? Can't believe I didn't think of that... Edited June 23, 2010 by Canardweb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rab shropshire Posted June 23, 2010 Report Share Posted June 23, 2010 (edited) i changed from a tarty stem to a tryall 3D mod stem on my control short and it made the cockpit much more comfortable and spacious Try-all mod stem 150x30 looks a little silly but is really comfortable to ride Edited June 23, 2010 by rab shropshire Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canardweb Posted June 24, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 24, 2010 I like that! It looks nice! If my friend still has his Mod stem at home, he will give it to me, and I will show pics of the bike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canardweb Posted June 24, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 24, 2010 f**k! I changed my stem to a new one (150mmx30°)! It's awesome, I have just learned how to hop on the front wheel only by changing stem! Thanks a lot everybody! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
