Tomm Posted February 11, 2008 Report Share Posted February 11, 2008 I've got a few products I'm tempted to press the go button on very soon, and I'd like to see how the mk2 is received so I can judge how to take it forward. If the 24UK is embraced, then I will keep the momentum going I'm looking forward to finally seeing the new features realised on the Mk2, and seeing what everyone thinks.Aw, don't make us wait! I think there's probably a market now for a proper 26" street frame. Lots of people are interested in going 24 but it's a pretty big investment if you currently ride stock (new frame + wheels + tyres + whatever other bits). If you made a 26" frame with similar geo to the 24uk, the transition would be a lot easier for a lot of people. Kind of like the Czar freetrials but a bit more oldschool-looking and not as long. In fact, just make it exactly like the 2004 Pure and I can think of at least one person who'll be over the moon! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke Rainbird Posted April 28, 2009 Report Share Posted April 28, 2009 Yeah, use a disc Something like Steve ran on this but upside down would probably work I'd imagine, perhaps a slight tweak or two Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
