_skj0lsvik_ Posted January 1, 2007 Report Share Posted January 1, 2007 cant wait to see that frame... anyone know the geo?If this is the frame ali is going to ride I guess it was like 1085mm wb, 15-25mm bb+ and 380mm cs... Dont count me on that one though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
26inch Posted January 1, 2007 Report Share Posted January 1, 2007 hopefully the geo will be the same as last years as that was pretty much perfect, apart from the bb is too high for my old fashioned tastes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ali C Posted January 1, 2007 Report Share Posted January 1, 2007 as far as I know, it will be the same....it just wouldnt be an ashton if it wasnt! I also think there might be a full bike too.I am testing geo for a comp virsion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bucky Posted January 1, 2007 Report Share Posted January 1, 2007 imo after having riden 3 ashton frames over a few years the most recent one is just about perfect.my only concearn is lack of strengthening around seat stay/brake mount, as brake feels flexy without a booster.i love my red 06 and dont ever want to let it go.

TomR Posted January 2, 2007 Report Share Posted January 2, 2007 i agree, they need to be strengthened, and a intergrated booster is a must.My ashtons got the new style evo mounts aswell as a CNC magura booster, that seems pretty solid.

Team Ashton Posted January 3, 2007 Report Share Posted January 3, 2007 Yo! Happy New Year to you all.07 Justice frames will be here for Febuary (hopefully). New year, new graphics, the frame design is basically the same but with slight tweaks in Geometry, the aim; to enhance the distinctive feel of last years bike.Also waiting on some prototypes at the moment (Ali and Gav will be testing these, so pester them for test rides as i would love as much feed back as possible). These Prototypes are longer versions of the existing Justice, both Gav and Ali requested longer frames for comps. These bikes are unlikely to ever reach production in the present design but the positive aspects (hopefully all) will go into a completely new design that i am working on at the moment. Testing has recently started on the new 24, it's amazing fun and i can't wait to release that bike, we plan for a complete build bike to be available for October 07, also a complete Justice at this time as well.Website will be up very soon (i have said that before) actually think it will be soon this time though, probably because i'm not building it...Any feed back or ideas then let me, Ali or Gav know about it.Cheers,Martyn.

New CNC pieces? Still the Ashton seat I hope? Will this be an inital offering before the 'completely new design' comes on stream? Oh, and rear disc mounts?Questions, questions, questions. Force of habit I guess If you need any shots for the website from last year, The Bike Show, or of Gav or Ali, give me a shout. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
