ogre Posted October 28, 2005 Report Share Posted October 28, 2005 I know this is a trials forum but you probably all ride other type of bikes to, i've just seen a full titanium downhill bike *drooling* http://www.batch.org/eng/projects.php?id=tension_dh and i also saw a realy funky paint job http://www.batch.org/eng/frame.php?id=mod20_plasma it is shokingly sexy! and is on a stock (i think) thought you would all enjoy a gander and i wondered if the crankset on the would be anygood for trials?

Mat Smith! Posted October 28, 2005 Report Share Posted October 28, 2005 I’ve seen it before, it was posted a while back, the frame looks really nice but I’m not really a fan of that spray :P Not really a fan of down hillin’ either, I think that ‘Batch’ design is a Mod frame, don’t know if they are done in Stock Mat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What you saw there is the idea the a Ti Dh frame/bike not a Dh frame/bike made form Ti Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R*B Posted October 28, 2005 Report Share Posted October 28, 2005 (edited) Drooling over a sketch huh... That finish looks okay, but it's not as unique as they make out... That same effect can easily be achieved by heating steel or titanium: ever looked at a motorbike exhaust? I'll admit that the DH frame does look intriguing... Would cost an absolute bomb though which seems a bit pointless when world championships are one on the likes of Kona Stabs and Orange 223s... Oh, and the cranks say "excellent XC weapon", they do look pretty solid but I'd have a chat with someone in the know first.

Martin Posted October 29, 2005 Report Share Posted October 29, 2005 Saw that mod trials frame in BTM trials mag, looked nice then, but now i think the frame is just a bit to high compared to echo, zoos ect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
