Culshaw95 Posted September 16, 2012 Report Share Posted September 16, 2012 Wait why does the mod have vertical dropouts o_O 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CalRobbo341 Posted September 16, 2012 Report Share Posted September 16, 2012 You have the geo's? The mod looks crazily high? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gurider2010 Posted September 16, 2012 Report Share Posted September 16, 2012 Think they look great! But would most likely be better with horizontal drop outs. As left foot forward riders will be side hopping to the left. So, would probably rag the chain guide straight off if they miss a side hop? Other than that i think they look amazing.

williams Posted September 17, 2012 Report Share Posted September 17, 2012 Needs disc tabs on the mod!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamKidney Posted September 17, 2012 Report Share Posted September 17, 2012 I would like to see someone hitting that chain tensioner... Wouldnt be that hard I imagine. To say I managed to bend my tensioner on my Ozonys Curve, which too is located on the inside of the frame, and Im right footed... Time will tell.

Mark W Posted September 17, 2012 Report Share Posted September 17, 2012 I still don't get the benefit of having a 135mm rear hub and a sprung tensioner on a mod. It creates more hassle for the customer and retailer as and when the customer wants to upgrade, it adds weight and doesn't really seem to solve any issues at all? Whatever pros there might be definitely don't seem to outweigh the cons. When you consider something like the X-Ray or Lite frames with their built-in tensioners, having to bolt a sprung tensioner on seems a strange decision.

chimpanzyyyy Posted September 17, 2012 Report Share Posted September 17, 2012 Christian has always been a huge fan of those tensioner for mod bikes not sure what to think about these not to keen on my mod snail cams(old monty 221 pr) though maybe tension is better with the system above?

I would say constant tension,stable cs lenght with no brake aligning issues is big benefit for some people.I hate chain slack personally.

p_ruskin Posted September 17, 2012 Report Share Posted September 17, 2012 Stock looks real nice, similar to an atomz? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gurider2010 Posted September 17, 2012 Report Share Posted September 17, 2012 (edited) " No horizontal dropout, Beause we pass the EU certification." That's the reason for the vertical drop outs according to the company. Edited September 17, 2012 by gurider2010 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghostrider88 Posted September 17, 2012 Report Share Posted September 17, 2012 (edited) Stock looks real nice, similar to an atomz? Yes,because the guy(s) who produce them are the same guys that were behind the atomz. Edited September 17, 2012 by ghostrider88 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isitafox Posted September 17, 2012 Report Share Posted September 17, 2012 I like the look of them but agree about the tensioner, the bolt tensioners on onzas and echos seems to be the way forward now if you ask me with far less time wasted setting up. Also if your gonna put vertical dropouts on why not integrate the bottom half of the magura mount into the frame as well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Dunstan Posted September 18, 2012 Report Share Posted September 18, 2012 BB looks way to high. Agreed the tensioner looks gay. I like the colour, that is all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noone else does it and those are mid range bikes...Maybe top end frames will have something special Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isitafox Posted September 18, 2012 Report Share Posted September 18, 2012 Wouldn't really take much doing though mid range or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
max-t Posted September 18, 2012 Report Share Posted September 18, 2012 I still dont understand why nobody has come up with a very simple tensioner idea for vertical dropout frames. just a simple wheel bolted on the inside of the chainstay unable to be hit by failed moves that the chain can wrap around the rear sprocket and over the top of the wheel and be tensioned by simply being moved foreward or back. And soon as that tensioner takes a hit that will be it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crewkerz Posted September 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 24, 2012 Hello everybody Sorry for my late reply. Don't worry about the tensioner, it's not heavy, it's really strong, the mechanical behaviour is better, we pass the EU certification. The bike will be availble with 1 year warranty and we hope 2 years. If you knew the Atomz Quark II tensionner, you can understand why the tensioner is better to horizontal dropout. Impossible to make a good tensioner without 2 pulls. (wheels) Many riders want a horizontal dropout and some riders want a tensioner. The qty are not our priority. We prefer quality, service,....
