Joe Papasnap Maher Posted February 20, 2005 Report Share Posted February 20, 2005 (edited) actually, i take that comment back with this paint work it looks quite nice :- Still looks abit confusing those...got half of anglia water's pipes attached to it lol :o Edited February 20, 2005 by Joe@Carbonique Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Hardman Posted February 20, 2005 Report Share Posted February 20, 2005 It looks ok but I think its gonna break where that bedn is on the top dube despite what seems to be sme sort of re-enforcement at that area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted February 20, 2005 Report Share Posted February 20, 2005 It might not break there, but the way the end of the seat-stays joins the downtube looks sketchy? I guess there's not going to be much hassle from it 'cos the top-tube joins it before it gets to the down-tube so it should mean there isn't a huge amount of force there... Any indication of weight?

Mark W Posted February 20, 2005 Report Share Posted February 20, 2005 Yeah, full build, otherwise that frame would have to be made pretty much of solid gold :o Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Drewery Posted February 21, 2005 Report Share Posted February 21, 2005 The old tibo looked quite ugly, but that one doesnt look too bad, its certainly different! The paintwork does look quite nice too :o Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
totaltrials Posted February 21, 2005 Report Share Posted February 21, 2005 Tibo cracked the one he was riding, maybe they changed it, seems like there are too many places where it would go. Not my kinda thing really. Phil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zoojames Posted February 23, 2005 Report Share Posted February 23, 2005 Sorry if this is on the site but is that 26 or 20"? I mean it looks 26" but I could be wrong? I quite like that (Y) looks alright, strange, but alright! James Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted February 23, 2005 Report Share Posted February 23, 2005 Vertical dropouts and mech hangers should've given it away for a start, but there's a pic of it full built on the site - it's definitely a stock :ermm: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
