Manufacturers.......this Is What We Want!

[Miles Mallinson]

damn looks cool though

[Matt Vandart]

Hi guys

This might seem a little unnecessary but if you've posted discussion points about weights, set ups etc rather than what you want and why would you mind deleting them please? Its just that way the likes of phatmike wont have to rrawl through a lot of stuff that isn't relevant and that way hopefully no good ideas will be missed!?!

This type of discussion is more valuable than just a list of products, Phatmike isn't the only person taking note by the way.

It's 5-bolt, but more or less what you're thinking?

... But it costs £52

My not paying attention made me miss this, Want alot, means i can run my Gu cranks on my Jump bike..

Although £52 !

Suppose its alot of machine work.

Another idea one of these ^^^ but cheaper.

[Mike Poyzer @ Onza]

Its interesting for us to read a topic like this to check out peoples wants and idea's.

We already produce a four arm adapter for Tensile cranks, but that fits on the bash spline with a lockring on the threads. The problem with a screw on spider is fixing its position so that you don't get one of the arms behind the crank. (difficult to fix the radial positioning of the screw thread.)

Splined freewheels are also not a new concept. We have drawings dating back about four years with a splined freewheel. The driving force at that stage was creating a freewheel which you could run on the R/H or L/H crank using a lockring. The consensus at the time was that there was no issue in general with right footed or left footed riders so we abandoned it. (too many issues to convert it to a BMX project).

I would like to see further things on peoples wish list.

Some sort of new mounting system for hs33's that isnt as weak. even bigger bolts would be better as its incredibly easy to rape 4 the current bolt mount threads on some frames.

[Robin M S/c]

What about a splined rear hub and fixed sprocket. Would cure the issues i've had stripping the thread on hubs and also make swapping the sproket easier. Could be splined on both sides so can take a disc mount if req'd.

[Ali C]

that already exists

[matt.price]

that already exists

i was thinking that?

So weres my 19" rear rip wheel, I have a idea that onza might be interested in as I know many people have asked for one but brakes won't allow well mr onza I have a solution for a small fee ( a onza master )

[casualjoe]

Some 26" frames that are simple, affordable, under 2kgs and have geometries around 383, +40/45 bb, 72* and roughly 1075 mm wheelbase. Would prefer vertical dropouts too.

[Scott Gibbs]

Mike are we going to see an revamped/updated range of stock bikes from onza?

And if we Are you should have released them a week back as I may well of had one.

Anyway don't forget the wheel idea

[Matt Vandart]

Dude the rip has a 20" wheel for a reason.

What reasons that then?

[Mark W]

Mainly price.

[onza1]

Mainly price.

Exactly why I'm saying they should make a upgrade, there has gotta be a way of making one so your V brake will still fit, for f**k sake there engineers

Then buy the one up which isn't a total starter bike if you want a 19" back wheel?

[Mark W]

Changing the frame to allow it to use a 19" or 20" wheel would still put the price up compared to the current frame, so it wouldn't be at the price-point they made it to be at. They're really good value as it is, I don't really think you can get much more bike than that for the money. If you definitely want a 19" rear wheel, or want to get a more 'future proof' (shit term, but you get the point) bike then it makes sense to try and stretch to get the Bird instead.
