Shaun H Posted June 22, 2006 Report Share Posted June 22, 2006 oh and how much does ashton contradict his own frame design in his article in mbuk?!!!! haha what a joke, i have the most respect for him in the world but how can he say " we should all ride normal bike" etc when he's riding his designTo be fair though he's probably designing the frames so that they sell well in the current market, not neccesarily to his own liking. Therefore he's designed it to the current trends in trials bikes to maximise sales and make a frame that will ride well for the majority of the market.As for his componentry, Ashton is bound heavily by sponsorship - it's how he makes his living. So he can't really be expected to fit his bike with what he likes really...Hate the bike, probably just me but it seems like Charge are contradicting themselves with the whole; Money no object, best frame money can buy and then going on to say they've given it a saddle so that the public understand trials better I must just be an "immature crowd follower" though...

Although I'm sure it could be argued that some people's "Dream Frame" would have a seat, even if it did mean they lost half an inch off their sidehops.I never thought it would happen, but I'm coming around to seeing why people like seats. I never used to see the point, but it kinda makes sense to me now. Basically what I'm saying is perhaps Akrigg wants a seat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Shrewsbury Posted June 22, 2006 Report Share Posted June 22, 2006 (edited) Sitting on a frame or sitting on a seat which is better?I find if you can ride with it, stick with it. Edited June 22, 2006 by John Shrewsbury Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
