Al_Fel Posted March 20, 2006 Report Share Posted March 20, 2006 (edited) Echhhgoooo sorry I sneezed. Looks like something picked out of a catalog and randomly boshed together. Nice one though.Edit: when I say nice one I mean nice one for having a go. I don't really like the look of it myself. who know it might be amazing though.

Hobnobs Posted March 20, 2006 Report Share Posted March 20, 2006 So.. as far as i can tell; You've not really beaten the price of echo (who i assume is your main competitor)Your frame looks worse than dengs stuff, he keeps designs separately, where you have jumbled them all together.You have super short stays, which will make tyre clearance dodgy unless you changed something from the echo design. I dont like being negative, but are there any plus points? Hats off for trying though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walleee Posted March 20, 2006 Report Share Posted March 20, 2006 Pluss point number 1 - If you want an Echo and a GU and can't decide between the two, buy a KO and have both munched together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Posted March 20, 2006 Report Share Posted March 20, 2006 Were the circles in the gusset not originally diamond shapes? How much for the rim? Why doesnt the trial-uk site work thats on your profile? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stiffnips Posted March 20, 2006 Report Share Posted March 20, 2006 (edited) Were the circles in the gusset not originally diamond shapes? How much for the rim? Why doesnt the trial-uk site work thats on your profile? The site is down at the moment. I like it, i wasn't to keen on the CnC headtube but i think it looks ok, i wouldn't mind having this frame i know it looks like an echo gu and the rest but whats the big deal hes taken two nice bikes and put them together and i like the gusset it makes the echo look gay Imo because i've never liked the big empty gap between the top and downtube.NickEdit: oh yes, just to add i've had a go on the first prototype that rode like a beast although i didn't like the big headtube and he has changed that now so it should ride amazingly. Nice one dan! Edited March 20, 2006 by stiffnips Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FoxRacer Posted March 21, 2006 Report Share Posted March 21, 2006 I really, really like it. Ace product! I guess I would buy one, if i didn't already buy team.Although in all I think that frame looks amazing, I don't like downtube of chainstays, just looks cheap. I would prefer to see there massive CNC element;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
