ireson75 Posted May 27, 2011 Report Share Posted May 27, 2011 (edited) Ugly...however it could maybe be a revelation with some refinement? Do those bolts mean you would you be able to change take it apart? Replacing parts e.g. down tubes or bb shell would be much easier/cheaper than buying a new frame!

Jamie_Trials Posted May 27, 2011 Report Share Posted May 27, 2011 I like the idea of, "snap a tube, replace a tube" Not too keen on how often it'l be needed though, needs some pretty thorough testing first before i'm keen on it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jo Prattley Posted May 27, 2011 Report Share Posted May 27, 2011 looks like shit but still a great idea .. surely if the tubes are clamped the frame will flex more ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isitafox Posted May 27, 2011 Report Share Posted May 27, 2011 The rear brake mounts look familiar. Isn't that how alex dark designed his frame?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Rainbird Posted May 27, 2011 Report Share Posted May 27, 2011 Isn't that how Hoffmann bikes designed their frames?? Pretty much. Works well too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam T Posted May 27, 2011 Report Share Posted May 27, 2011 I'm guessing you could also change it to your own geometrys which could be quite interesting! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monty221ti Posted May 27, 2011 Report Share Posted May 27, 2011 I'm guessing you could also change it to your own geometrys which could be quite interesting! i dont think you could do that, if you for an example put longer tubes in, then the angles of the mounts that holds the tubes wouldnt be right??? but if it would work it could be pretty awesome. you could change geometry on you current frame rather than buying a new one.

bikeperson45 Posted May 27, 2011 Report Share Posted May 27, 2011 As much as I love simple designed frames, I love that. The colour's even awesome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe not longer, but you may be able to shorten the length of chain stays or your Bottom Bracket rise? I dont know, I'm just assuming.

Laurence--Trials Posted May 27, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2011 Personly i really like the look and idea of it, however not too keen on those seat tubes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Revolver Posted May 27, 2011 Report Share Posted May 27, 2011 I believe it was designed with a certain amount of adjustability in it. I spoke to him about it on a ride once. You could make the middle section and then change the CS and SS bits to make it 26, 24 or 20. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greetings Posted May 28, 2011 Report Share Posted May 28, 2011 I hope this works because I really want to see this make it into production. We need more innovation in trials. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewG Posted May 28, 2011 Report Share Posted May 28, 2011 I hope this works because I really want to see this make it into production. We need more innovation in trials. I agree with you but I thonk this isn´t right way. carbon is really susceptible to galls and personally I don´t know about someone who haven´t got gall on chain stays.. so one bad sidehop and you can changing tube. Ozonys going right way with they curve frame imo(+koxx with sky 1st gen.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trialsmax04 Posted May 28, 2011 Report Share Posted May 28, 2011 What is up with people?! Looks amazing. Trials needs new products like this. Frames and other components are getting to uniform now days, no originality. I'd buy one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
old'scoolfool Posted May 28, 2011 Report Share Posted May 28, 2011 lmao and some people wonder why trials is dead you may aswell just do parkour in a carbon fibre suit and go all out stupid, all people care about these days is how much weight they can save and how small the frame can get no matter how stupid they look *sigh* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Revolver Posted May 28, 2011 Report Share Posted May 28, 2011 Sounds like you're missing the point. The idea is, if you break a tube, you swap it, and if you want to change the geometry, you have means to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lower = More tuckage fo siddles/gaps etc. Explain to me how that makes trials dead, yes? In my book thats forward Progress... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
