Hey guys,

I managed to crack my orange Skye; didn't think that was possible.

That blue looks so much nicer!

I think you're going to end up breaking the frame in the same place in my opinion and that inspired should do what ozonys did as I don't think you're the first to break a Inspired at that point

Aluminum doesn't do the job. It's not just about manufacture and gussets. Aluminum is not the best choice material for a durable bike. If we had more people pushing the envelope in terms of riding you'd see all sorts of different brand 24" frames breaking like sticks.

imagine a titanium bike..... nobody would be able to afford it though xD

Could you make me a really small XC bike please? Dont bother with a seat pin hole, I stand up loads.

4 bolt mounts? Yeah! All the XC boys use them these days!

and I am going to use an extreeemly low travel suspension, around 0mm, I love hard DH roads, and could you make it +80bb?

I know, that 19" rear wheel is not that common among DH, but this will be the new 650B man, I tell you

From their website.

i messaged them, they will make trials frames but they want the best part of a grand. i guess they don't bother so much cause we're a right picky bunch.
