Mark W Posted March 17, 2014 Report Share Posted March 17, 2014 If by 'top' you mean 'top of the range' or anything like that, I don't think that'll be the case - in the 'launch' interview Bruno did he said that this is basically their affordable/cheap range of bikes, with Ozonys being the top of the range stuff. I don't think they'd suddenly switcheroo that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ali C Posted March 20, 2014 Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 Height of box 60 or 70 mm, Steering angle 71.5 ° 71.5 ° no thanks 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross McArthur Posted March 21, 2014 Report Share Posted March 21, 2014 Height of box 60 or 70 mm, Steering angle 71.5 ° 71.5 ° no thanks Most comp frames these days have those sorts of angles. I'm sure you know this. I take it you still think someone should bust out a steep head angled/short stemmed set up comp bike? I do! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ali C Posted March 21, 2014 Report Share Posted March 21, 2014 yes I do, if the bars are in the same place reletive to the front axle then it doesn't matter what length the stem and how steep the steerer tube is the bike will still endo and backhop the same but a longer toptupe, steeper head angle and shorter stem would turn and pivot better. I was hoping it was have a lower bb and not a chopper-esc headtube angle. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted March 21, 2014 Report Share Posted March 21, 2014 Bearing in mind some dudes appear to be running 165mm stems now as well, it seems weird to stick with mega slack head angles. Even if they were 'just' up to 72 or 73 you could presumably get away with a slightly less scaff-bar-esque stem? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like the TMS Evo4 at 72.5 headangle. http://www.bikevision.org/pages/produits.php# Edited March 22, 2014 by Rusevelt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ali C Posted April 7, 2014 Report Share Posted April 7, 2014 narr, I'm thinking steeper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isitafox Posted April 7, 2014 Report Share Posted April 7, 2014 Should be at least 73° (coming from the guy with a 71.5° frame...) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
