Lewis Gething Posted November 26, 2012 Report Share Posted November 26, 2012 (edited) Hi all, Having ridden an Onza Comp frame for the past couple of years, a few weeks ago I decided that a new frame was in order. Jake Deakin (JMCD on here) had this frame lying around, and as soon as he sent me a photo of it and told me the geo, I knew I wanted it For anyone interested, the geo is 1000wb, 350cs and +90bb, weighing in at 1.3kg. I will go out to film a good riding video with it if the weather gets any better, but that's unlikely http://www.vimeo.com/54308430 I didn't put much effort into the photos, as I focused more on the quick video I made. Let me know what you think of it Lewis ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 30/11/12 Update: Recieved some new Trialtech High Rise bars from Tartybikes yesterday (thanks very much guys), so thought it would make sense to show you guys some more photos with them on the bike ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 12/12/12 Update: Now with rawed cranks and pedals Edited July 23, 2013 by streetrials24 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CalRobbo341 Posted November 26, 2012 Report Share Posted November 26, 2012 No bashring, I hope you're not planning on putting a plate on that thing of beauty?! Is your video camera the same as your normal picture camera, very intrested in what camera/s and lens you have? Also thoroughly looking forward to a video!

Jake. Posted November 26, 2012 Report Share Posted November 26, 2012 (edited) I spy vertical cranks ruins it when I see bike pictures with vertical cranks, make sure the valve is in line with the tyre logo too, and have the logos at the top of the tyre when taking pictures. Looks lovely other than that, I'm just being picky. Sort those bars out! Also, get grinding the bashmount off.

Is your video camera the same as your normal picture camera, very intrested in what camera/s and lens you have? Also thoroughly looking forward to a video! Cheers dude! I very very rarely hit the freewheel on objects, so I can't see a need to buy a bashring really I won't be putting a bash plate on it though As far as my camera, I use a Canon 60D for both the videos and photos I make, and the lenses used in this video were the Canon 50 1.8 and Canon 17-85 Thanks again! I spy vertical cranks ruins it when I see bike pictures with vertical cranks, make sure the valve is in line with the tyre logo too, and have the logos at the top of the tyre when taking pictures. Looks lovely other than that, I'm just being picky. Sort those bars out! Also, get grinding the bashmount off. Damn it! I always used to do that when taking photos of my bikes, but figured no-one would actually care/notice, so didn't do it in those ones Nice! Bar and stem combo look perfect. What's the stem? Thanks Dan, although I am hoping to get some wider bars such as the Try-All Elite 2012, as the Monkey Bars are only 685mm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks very much mate, It is a great frame and I wish it wasn't raining over here so I could actually ride it Filming and photography seems to be who I am really Bars are Easton Monkeylites, which are meant to be for XC. They arent very good for trials really 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks very much!, as I mentioned in the first post, I got the frame from Jake, who's post is above this one Edited November 27, 2012 by streetrials24 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bike_dummie Posted November 27, 2012 Report Share Posted November 27, 2012 Well nice but where did you get the frame please? Trialsparts.net sell bionic stuff and im pretty sure trials addict could source you one aswell. But if i were you i wouldn't go for the newer bionic b5r 2012 as it hasn't got a very good quality control eg most of the gussets are welded on the piss (gussets at the headtube and the gussets where the top tube meets the chainstays). But what can you expect for a frame under £200? Overall this is a very solid frame and i would most likely buy another! This is the one i have - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tigriss Posted November 28, 2012 Report Share Posted November 28, 2012 you can buy one in spane on trial-bikes.com I think that if i have to change my sky, i'll get one of those Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fortunately you can buy one in spane on trial-bikes.com I think that if i have to change my sky, i'll get one of those only in double disc And I don't want one thanks.

Lewis Gething Posted December 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2012 Looks awesome! Thanks! I have done some sidehops and gaps to front on it this week, and I can tell you, it feels amazing! Every move I have tried so far has been much easier than on my old Comp frame. Can't wait to get a riding video out with it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
