Martin Posted November 23, 2005 Report Share Posted November 23, 2005 (edited) oh my god, that is sooooooo nice, and different, really like the bshguard! :P :) BTW: is that frame availiable without a bash plate, because that first picture doesn't have the block/mount?

Technical Tom Posted November 23, 2005 Report Share Posted November 23, 2005 Thats one nice frame, but does remind me a little of a t-lite. The chain tennsioners on the frame is a brilliant idea nice one. The bashplate is the most wierdest thing i have ever seen but it looks cool :P Was worth the wait though, Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted November 23, 2005 Report Share Posted November 23, 2005 Is that all the bash is going to be? Can see how it might be OK for street, but I'd have thought it'd have been a bit of a bitch for natural? Pointy rocks, etc.? Meh, might be OK I suppose. Dunno if it was worth all the hype, but there we go. Nice to see some new features anyway... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jules Posted November 23, 2005 Report Share Posted November 23, 2005 (edited) Hmm i cant decide wether i like it or not, quite frankly the bashguard looks silly and that it would snap or crack really easy, but the frame looks ok, mind you i would much rather buy a zoo python or a GU. Although saying that its something different and im sure it rides ok :P EDIT: Does anybody know how much these frames will cost and if there will be toxsin 20'' fork??

Mark W Posted November 23, 2005 Report Share Posted November 23, 2005 That bash ain't gonna like lateral impacts :P How much does it weigh altogether? The massive bit for the bash doesn't really scream 'light'? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Booth Posted November 23, 2005 Report Share Posted November 23, 2005 realllllly dont lie it, i loe the tensioner idea, but thats all, no where near worth the hype they created around it, The blue one looks like a kiddies colour scheme Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mc Lovin Posted November 23, 2005 Report Share Posted November 23, 2005 (edited) It looks nice, but as mark said where the bash is connected to would get raped by pointy rocks, I can see it will probebly be stronger than the onza bash though. Are those two holes going to be a middle bash or something are just random holes? I really like the chain tensioner, It seems a really good place for it.

t-mag_rider Posted November 23, 2005 Report Share Posted November 23, 2005 Hi, i may sound a bit stupid but here goes. How do you put the rear wheel in? I think it would be for QR skewers, but I am not sure. Please help. Ollie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Cox Posted November 23, 2005 Report Share Posted November 23, 2005 Hi, i may sound a bit stupid but here goes. How do you put the rear wheel in? I think it would be for QR skewers, but I am not sure. Please help. Ollie you are joking right? almost every trials hub out there runs allen bolts, which go into the axel instead of bolting over the top. bike looks wank, will never be able to get enough power through the tensioner to get the chain anywhere near tight, Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waddy Posted November 23, 2005 Report Share Posted November 23, 2005 is it just me or is that bashplate totally defeating the object of having one :)? all other bashplates have a rubber elastomer/shockabsorber, and by having the 2 plates directly bolted to the frame theres going to be nothing to absorb the force of impact so the impact is going streight into the frame, putting more stress on it, i'm not too keen on the fat bb yoke either :P sam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Backgren Posted November 23, 2005 Report Share Posted November 23, 2005 What noone can see from that photo of the BB area is that the bash plates don't screw right into the aluminum below the BB. I've seen a photo of the BB area without the plates mounted, and it seems like the bolts go into a threaded cylinder in the center of a larger rubber cylinder that will absorb the shock just like the rubber blocks do on standard bashes.

Houseface Posted November 23, 2005 Report Share Posted November 23, 2005 frame shape looks ok i spose (Y) but as other people have said, the bash is gunna get raped badly(like a boy walking 5 metres down a dark alley and getting raped 3 times)and i dont like it either. the tensioners look weird, how would you get you wheel in there, is there no slots to slide them in to or is there something i should know about? overall i would rather have something else ;) steve.

If you look on page 2 it says some thing about it there, I asked, its some thing to do with the hubs having alen bolts to hole them in. Have a read. You will find it in better terms than i put it.

Wright Pads Posted November 25, 2005 Report Share Posted November 25, 2005 1. Dropouts (Y) look nice but are them tensioners going to hold that wheel back enough with power through them from someone say usch as CLS, okay he may not ride it or one, but someone can put just as much power thorugh as he probs kicks out and i don't think they look strong enouhg at least! 2. Bash im not so sure on...think that front thing will die. if it's like a wheel and spins good move i say...kinda rolling fixed bash. 3. Why don't you stop making frame look like each other. okay so yeah it's easy top use same headtube and other parts such as TT, DT, CS, SS but really your in Tiwan, the frame building shit hole money pot of the world...you can easyerly make a new set of styled tubes in less than an a day out there. Change the paint job i say and decals, look cheap and tacky. Pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
