Andy Vox Posted August 27, 2005 Report Share Posted August 27, 2005 (edited) The armadillo is a freeride frame, i have one sitting in my shed builtup to mess around on and ride to work on. It is a very nice frame to ride but you either love or hate the look of them. There is a massive fake gusset on the top tube, it looks wierd but i kinda like it. But for 200 quid it is very good. Just not for trials :angry: It has sqaure chain/seat stays and a cnc chainstay yoke. They are sized quite big, i think mine is a small and its 17", so its big enough for xc with the seat up and low enough for some tough stuff with the seat down. As for strengthwise ive been jumping on mine and im really crap (well im ok at taking off, just landing is a major problem), but it took all i could throw at it, even when i stacked jumps and nose dived drops. :closedeyes:" Andy Ps. It is a completly different frame to the pitbull, the pitbull is a steel, heavy street/trials frame, whereas this is a light alluminium freeride frame.
