Walleee Posted July 24, 2006 Report Share Posted July 24, 2006 Aye I saw them a few days ago too, I like the white. My ffirst real 'trials' frame a mission trials pro, was white too, Tis a good colour for a frame in my opinion. Tip-ex makes good touch-up paint.

Walleee Posted July 25, 2006 Report Share Posted July 25, 2006 I like how the mod has the plate on the bottom bracket CNC part to stop the chain getting minced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe_Elding Posted July 25, 2006 Report Share Posted July 25, 2006 I like it, the headtube/downtube join reminds me of my old echo team, which is good.hmm between that and a km1 for my next frame Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simon Posted July 25, 2006 Report Share Posted July 25, 2006 Any details? I like the look of that 26 inch one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted July 25, 2006 Report Share Posted July 25, 2006 Any details? WB: Fugly.CS: Fugly.BB rise: Fugly.'nuff info? Does that little block of metal by the chainstay just mince the chain into that not the actual stay then? I'm guessing that means you can run a higher tension without fear of tearing the arse out of your drivetrain?Aluminium frames should never be white...

I'm guessing that means you can run a higher tension without fear of tearing the arse out of your drivetrain?Aluminium frames should never be white...It sits next to the chain so when you land on the bash the chain doesn't get hit and streatched It sits a bit lower than the chain would so it comes into contact before the chain if you know what i mean. Still should have a proper bash.Silver frames are getting boring nice to see a bit of colour Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted July 25, 2006 Report Share Posted July 25, 2006 Yeah, no stretching the chain by hitting it + bashring was sorta what I was getting at. I don't really have any problems with silver frames (haven't had one for 2 years though? ), but I just meant white always makes tubing look really thick, almost? And 'cos aluminium tubes tend to be slightly oversized it just sorta looks bulky/cumbersome...Not so keen on really short stays on mods. I don't like the feel of X-Lites or T-Lites though, so there we go The stock geometry looks pretty spot-on though, +35 BB = pretty rinky dink...

PaRtZ Posted July 25, 2006 Report Share Posted July 25, 2006 they're disgusting worse than the new koxx frameSeriously are those frames? looks like a toy imo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Synergy Posted July 25, 2006 Report Share Posted July 25, 2006 they're disgusting worse than the new koxx frameSeriously are those frames? looks like a toy imoyou looking at the same frames lol?can you explain how they look like toys? is it the colour?

PaRtZ Posted July 25, 2006 Report Share Posted July 25, 2006 you looking at the same frames lol?can you explain how they look like toys? is it the colour?sorry only the mod one loaded for me lolYeah the colour, the size and probably the width of the tubing seems ott. The graphics are as bad as the zona's (i mean obviously they've taken more time about it, but its still ker-rap) and yeah the colour lolMind you someone said that these were like sub £100 or something Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted July 25, 2006 Report Share Posted July 25, 2006 £90 + airfare to HongKong, Matt I honestly think it is just the white that makes the tubes look OTT. They just look really thick when they're probably not... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burton Posted July 25, 2006 Report Share Posted July 25, 2006 i'd rather have the stock.Reminds me loads of a Control, which is ace The mod geo is poo! Chainstays are too short, so you don't go anywhere when you gap, except upside down.Should make them in Matt Black Don't like white, looks cheap, like the Orange Zero.

Dr Greenthumb Posted July 28, 2006 Report Share Posted July 28, 2006 I quite like the mod frame, if it wasn't so rediculously short though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
