Mark W Posted March 26, 2006 Report Share Posted March 26, 2006 Get with the times, he was on Onza, went to Ashton, and now to Mongoose (Oh, and he also rides a Charge Ti Iron Horse (or whatever it's called) frame stickered up as a Mongoose).Go to www.gateeight.co.uk or whatever Gate8's site is for some viddddddddyho's.

Lukeee Posted March 26, 2006 Report Share Posted March 26, 2006 I heard a rumour from someone at the last Hampshire comp. It was going to a Ti frame and retail around £1000. Don't know how much truth there is in that , hopefully wayne will post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Shrewsbury Posted March 26, 2006 Report Share Posted March 26, 2006 I spoke to chris other weekend at nationals, yes it will be a ti frame, but i dont reckon it will be out to sell soon. He's just riding a Megamo radicl frame ATM stickered up with mongoose. You may of seen it in the lastest EARTHED 3 DVD. I reckon waynio would be able to give you more info soon.

Tony Harrison Posted March 29, 2006 Report Share Posted March 29, 2006 The Radical is actually a damn good frame. Chris seems to be able to ride any bike amazingly well - the mark of a truly skilled rider... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Bleech Posted March 29, 2006 Report Share Posted March 29, 2006 yeah that ackrigg fellow is pretty dece ....anyhow, i can't see mongoose signing ackkers and then just releasing a high end frame that 90% people won't be able to afford. It wouldn't suprise me to see a cheaper alu or steel version of the frame come out, but with the same geo! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted March 29, 2006 Report Share Posted March 29, 2006 Knowing bike companies, it'll have worse geometry to force you to buy the top-end one... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Nichols Posted March 29, 2006 Report Share Posted March 29, 2006 There's no way mongoose will release a super expensive titanium trials frame. Regardless of what Chris rides the frame available to the public is bound to be alu or steel. Mongoose sell some nice bikes.. but not super expensive bikes.Not gonna happen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Badboy Posted March 31, 2006 Report Share Posted March 31, 2006 That didnt look much like a Meg frame he was on at the british! more like a pashley!The tubing looked too slim.I maybe wrong (i didnt actually ask him what it was) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F-Stop Junkie Posted April 1, 2006 Report Share Posted April 1, 2006 That didnt look much like a Meg frame he was on at the british! more like a pashley!The tubing looked too slim.I maybe wrong (i didnt actually ask him what it was)I don't think it was a Pashley either. Looking very carefully at it, it seems to just any standard steel frame, with four bolt mounts welded on the back.To be honest, I wouldn't be suprised if that's a very, very significant trials bike which has had some four bolts brazed on it's life. Maybe a '94 frame? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
