Oldskooltrials Posted March 1, 2011 Report Share Posted March 1, 2011 I built this up today for one of my mates, it needs a new bar and stem as the front end feels a bit low for my liking. A few lighter parts would be nice as it weighs over 12kg as it stands. I like it a lot though,and one day it may well be mine.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Vandart Posted March 1, 2011 Report Share Posted March 1, 2011 That is minters, I wish Pashley would make a modern geo frame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oldskooltrials Posted March 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2011 That is minters, I wish Pashley would make a modern geo frame. I don't think the geo is too bad (1100,385,+30,72) but the 2500g frame weight probably puts people off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N.Wood Posted March 1, 2011 Report Share Posted March 1, 2011 Is that a comp 16 up front? Looks good otherwise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oldskooltrials Posted March 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 I'm not sure what tyre it's got on the front, all i know is that it's a Michelin of some sort and it's at least 10 years old. The stem is a Profile Stiffy, I've got 5 of them in various lengths and rises,they were the only half decent stems our LBS used to stock. They also made a "I ride with a stiffy" t-shirt to go with the stem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bella Posted March 2, 2011 Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 looks nice enough the weight would put anyone off i think . if you want something like it with less weight buy a speed race fans looks to me like a more modern version of this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

forteh Posted March 3, 2011 Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 Isit? 2.5kg could still make a pretty light bike with the right shiz on it. Indeed, direct swap with my triton frame would produce a 10kg bike pretty much bang on I can remember when 10kg was super light! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oldskooltrials Posted March 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 I'm not bothered by the weight, but i think changing to a ffw set up would bring it down a lot? Also that old hope hub feels gash compared to my Echo sl that i run on my mod. Best thing about the frame is that it was made in the UK by these old boys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N.Wood Posted March 3, 2011 Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 I believe I'm right in thinking that is a comp 16 up front... Try swapping that out, I reckon with a try-all stiky or any other front tyre you could lose 500g straight away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toyota200x Posted March 6, 2011 Report Share Posted March 6, 2011 Classy rig. Always thought the 1100 WB seemed to long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
