Azarathal Posted April 26, 2012 Report Share Posted April 26, 2012 Heres the new Rockman Radix 24" pure trials comp frame listed on tarty, geo sounds nice but the lack of disc mounts and discusting graphics has put me right off this frame, what are your views? http://www.tartybike.../c70p11832.html 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Towler Posted April 26, 2012 Report Share Posted April 26, 2012 Have to agree with the above comments. Not a huge fan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForrestDump Posted April 26, 2012 Report Share Posted April 26, 2012 The frame looks perfect for anyone that needs to be constantly reminded of the build and geo. Exclude the quite frankly poor graphics and it looks like a pretty snazzy frame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azarathal Posted April 26, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2012 Still lacking a disc mount though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laurence--Trials Posted April 26, 2012 Report Share Posted April 26, 2012 What were they thinking with the graphics? Its a little long for me though other than the WB and graphics nice frame. Want to see a full build though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aener Posted April 26, 2012 Report Share Posted April 26, 2012 I don't understand the measurements on the graphics... It's got 272 written on the chainstay - but they're obviously longer than that, leading me to believe the 272mm is the length indicated by the line... My question is: who the hell wants to know how long PART of the effective chainstay length is? If they were going to do those type of graphics, I can't understand why they wouldn't make the measurements that actual geometry of the frame, rather than the lengths of tube sections used.

dann2707 Posted April 26, 2012 Report Share Posted April 26, 2012 That is amazing and quirky. I love it! With water transfer graphics displaying the frame's tube lengths, handy if you damage a tube mid-ride and need a replacement. Which funny guy wrote that? Made me piss myself laughing haha 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My question is: who the hell wants to know how long PART of the effective chainstay length is? The rest of them are soooort of accurate for the actual tubes used before welding 'n' stuff, but yeah, that 272mm doesn't seem to bear any relation to anything.

Canardweb Posted April 26, 2012 Report Share Posted April 26, 2012 Oh look! They even copied the Koxx headtube hole now! How surprising! No surprise, Rockman is still shit! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pengsmelly Posted April 26, 2012 Report Share Posted April 26, 2012 Colour is nice, and design on the actual frame, but they might as well left the graphics out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

p_ruskin Posted April 26, 2012 Report Share Posted April 26, 2012 Geo is about spot on really, frame itself looks pretty good too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
narrowbars Posted April 26, 2012 Report Share Posted April 26, 2012 Looks really nice, the frame anodised? if so it'd be easy to remove those graphics without damaging the orange finish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamKidney Posted April 26, 2012 Report Share Posted April 26, 2012 (edited) Yeah, get rid of the graphics and thats going to be one tasty looking frame. Interesting how the new Rockman 26" Liberte has a +55 BB opposed to the Slate XL's +70. Just like the Sky 2 was +70 and the new Koxx Kloud is +55. Not just the Koxx headtubes they're copying..... Are they still manufacturing the Slate XL frames? They ride so nice Edited April 26, 2012 by Echo Lite 09 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trialsbeginner Posted April 26, 2012 Report Share Posted April 26, 2012 to be honest i think its quite nice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
