i think what you lot are all missing is that monty's are designed and made as competition bikes. yes you can snap them, yes you can kill them - if you ride them hard. they are comp bikes and therefor have to balance strength, geometry and WEIGHT.

if you want something bomb proof buy a python, if you want a comp bike buy a monty...

I cant really agree with that, There are alot of other comp bikes you can ride and they dont just have to be short. But then again each to their own, I ride a long echo team it suits me on rocks and street.

Pretty Shite if you ask me, im waiting for the 06 frame to come out before i buy, but mabye ill just get the silver 05.

Cheers Thurston

I know, it is almost march now and the '06 full build is available but not the frame alone, the '05 is pretty different, the absence of a gusset at the toptube/seatstay is the most obvious thing but it's not got the looks of the '06 by any stretch of the imagination. I think i'd rather wait but im waiting on cleanbikes and BTC to get back to me as to when they will have it, as soon as either have it in stock, im ordering straight away... (Y)

Whaaaat? I'm going to phone Cleanbikes tomorrow and see what the craic is i've got this money burning a hole in my pocket and it's killing me. Someone get me some nice High Res pics of their '05 221 PR please(?????), if im going to have to wait until the end of the year I may be forced into getting the '05 :(

Arnt 221 PR's just a "kiddy" version of the Ti?

No if you go to the cleanbikes website you'll see that they are infact a cheaper downgraded version but with a sort of different frame shape (i think) of the 221 ti and that Monty also have a Junior bike (thats the one your thinkin about) worth about £1400 or something.

Now that is quite nice.

Has it got mount's on the chainstay's behind the brake mounts for a booster? looks like it has a built in booster aswell? What about fitting a 2.7 tyre in there is that a problem?

Nice one alex, i was thinking about just buying that one but im sure the 06 one comes out in march-april time, i mabye wrong im not sure.

Cheers Thurston

When my brother ordered the 06 frame the only one we could get hold of was

the 05. The only real downside i can see is there is no rear disk mount on the 05!

Not everyone will be bothered about this though.

Im sure you would be more than happy how the 05 ride's anyway. (Y)
