mad_gavo Posted November 6, 2005 Report Share Posted November 6, 2005 Right im still undecided on which one of the frames above to get. they are both very simular in pirce and geometry. Was just wondering which frame you would go for out of the two. or if none of them which current frame would you recomend. Also if anyone actully owns, has seen or ridden one i would love to know what you thought. Cheers Gavin :) Pictures of frames on tartybikes website and panpa.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hobnobs Posted November 6, 2005 Report Share Posted November 6, 2005 The czar i reckon, it looks better, and is probably stiffer. Although the adamant is nice and black. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ali C Posted November 6, 2005 Report Share Posted November 6, 2005 non of this super high bb malarky!! do yourself a favour and get an Onza Limey or Echo Control Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrishayton Posted November 6, 2005 Report Share Posted November 6, 2005 non of this super high bb malarky!! do yourself a favour and get an Onza Limey or Echo Control definatly agreed ! me and ali both had high bb frames(hifi and vinco) and so did my mate lee(GU) and all 3 of us are now riding controls, get a long low bb bike and you will much prefer it. high bb is weird full stop(not in a good way) the only place they are better is back wheel balance, but so what.

Tom Booth Posted November 6, 2005 Report Share Posted November 6, 2005 Onza Limey or Echo Control oh my god ali i love you!! Get either of those frames, one of them i will have some time soon (when me t-rex snaps, seems to have got a bit flexy recently) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Papasnap Maher Posted November 7, 2005 Report Share Posted November 7, 2005 Wtf joe, have you got an obsetion with having holes in your head tube :P Unfortunatly, it appears i do :) 3rd frame and counting :) non of this super high bb malarky!! Hmmm, im gonna disagree. Back in the day when everyone and his dog had a planet x, the levelboss come out, and everyone, was like, Woahhhh its huge 1065 :P lol. It was diffrent, people liked them , some poeple hated them,...it was kinda a big step. Now look....1065's are frowned upon now, for being small, surly change is a good thing right?? Plus, vincent rides with high bb so everyone must follow :D its a fact :P :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hobnobs Posted November 7, 2005 Report Share Posted November 7, 2005 Don't let one or however many peoples opinions put you off, high bb is good for some people, but definitly take it into account and try a high bb frame before you buy one. Dont waste your cash whatever you buy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ian Posted November 7, 2005 Report Share Posted November 7, 2005 czar is where my opinion is at but go with what you want gav Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mad_gavo Posted November 7, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2005 Buy the one you like, :( I still dont know what i really want though :D I do like the Czar though although the adamant is nice and origonal :D Out of low bb frames i would go with a limey or toxin 1 With these how much of a wheel base increase would i be getting for wheel swapping etc over my current level boss 1065? would i notice a difference?

But if you want no bb rise. Get a limey....will ride exactly the same as xtp as it's same geo ...and we all know how good that geo is :( :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
