AndrewEH1 Posted May 21, 2013 Report Share Posted May 21, 2013 (edited) Looks pretty good, this little touch made me smile! What's with the watch on the bars though? Edited May 21, 2013 by AndrewEH1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harmertrials Posted May 21, 2013 Report Share Posted May 21, 2013 I love the frame, but really odd spec. What made you go rear freehub? Also those bars, they're like a horizon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, if your gonna get a frame like that you need a good geo for it to work, or else it will ride horrid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake. Posted May 21, 2013 Report Share Posted May 21, 2013 Spec doesn't do the frame any justice... How are you able to afford all these frames? They're mega expensive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dezmtber Posted May 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2013 I swoped my new viz/neon/onza wheelset and jaf frame for the hope/ bonz/onza wheelset and ozonys frame. I just gotta buy myself a set of tryall bars and cranks n pedals. And maybe a superlight innertube for the front wheel. I can afford most bikes. On what i earn if I don't buy car parts or house things. The missus would kill me if I spent it all at once though So the Swop was I get a super nice frame, and battered rims on hope xc hub and hope pro 2 He got the jaf and my new matching viz rims and my echo tr cranks freewheel ect... I bought some onza zoot cranks and screw on cog to run for now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FamilyBiker Posted May 22, 2013 Report Share Posted May 22, 2013 nice bike,but not sure of swapping a piece of steel for a chunk of cheese though. most people regret selling their steel frames in the long run... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chimpanzyyyy Posted May 22, 2013 Report Share Posted May 22, 2013 didn't like the old frame to be honest this one looks a lot better don't listen to jealous people enjoy your new frame Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dezmtber Posted May 22, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2013 Part of the deal was if the jaf frame is ever up for sale I get 1st refusal. Which I will probbaly take. Unless by then I have snapped the v3 and had a new jaf I will admit the v3 flexes like most light frames, the jaf was solid I couldn't see any flex at all in the steel frame but the jaf was around 900-1200g heavier. Which is a hell of a lot when doing static moves. If i get a new jaf build it will use lightweight tubing not mid weight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke Dunstan Posted May 22, 2013 Report Share Posted May 22, 2013 It's like a disease. I started with a T-pro when I started again, then went on to a Zhi, then Neon Stock, then Zoo Pitbull, Marino 24", Echo 24" then sold the lot. All within 16 months. Spent thousands all because I wanted my bike to look better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dezmtber Posted May 22, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2013 The list on my sig is the past 18 months, it helps having a mate who loves to Swop stuff, means we bike a bike each and end up trying out two bikes for the price of one, bargain if your ok sharing.

dezmtber Posted June 4, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 4, 2013 I just ordered some tryall elite bars and m10 ti bolts and a few other ti bolts. I have been given a eclipse front tube too from the eclipse rep. I will give it a test. Just want some cranks next. No rush its weight in the centre I am not to bothered. It's not on the front Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dann2707 Posted June 16, 2013 Report Share Posted June 16, 2013 Looks nice but too many stickers for my liking! and those grips Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamKidney Posted June 16, 2013 Report Share Posted June 16, 2013 Its nice, but some curved blade forks, black grips and removal of the watch on the bars would make it so much nicer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shark Posted June 16, 2013 Report Share Posted June 16, 2013 those grips black grips would make it so much nicer. Hey, those green grips don't look bad at all! I quite like it but I can't decide if I love or hate these frames. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
