No,I've seen Giaco's bike,too. There are even sharp traces of cut wings that proves it WAS a XXV. The production of a special frame is very high, Monty should use the money to develop new frames instead of making a different XXV if they are smarter:)

Why are you using so many steel bolts and such heavy cranks but drilling holes on the frame? The holes will kill the frame.

The original golden one is too heavy. Also,it's hard to match other parts in golden color

Very happy to show my current ride with you all. The frame was a Monty XXV golden edition but I painted it to Giaco style. And I cut the wing,the disc mount and other extra parts just like Giaco do. It didn't influenced the strength but it got much lighter. Specs: Monty XXV frame Breath HS33 fork, however I think a carbon fork is more suitable for it Try-all carbon bar with Try-all Nowar stem Born titanium BB, Echo titanium freewheel, titanium cog, Try-all cranks (I swapped into Born cranks now so it got much lighter) Maestro rims, Breath front hub and Secret Weapon rear hub, Pillar triple butted spokes Try-all Shift tires with Specialized turbo tubes Racing line brakes with Heatsink Coustellier pads All bolts are titanium Bike weights 8.0kg with pedals Enjoy!

oh my god...it's been several days since i regiaster...is it really hard like this to post in other forums?i just want to buy a frame and i have to reply a post....

Give me a vote,please...I want to be validated...

Well,a beginner for 5 years...

Hoping to get validated...

mod bikes will help u to take a better foundation,because mod bikes are shorter,lighter,it can do movements easier than a stock .and after the foundation training,if you like stock ,then change a stock.

u can get 2 cogs for ur bike,using hubs just like chris king,18:15(stock),or 18:12 for trial,and get a 11 or even 9T cog for ridding.

lift your rear wheel when u get your front wheel pretty high...and then,pull your bike up,and then roll up your legs...

a cheap,and strong bike,with good geos(it's most important!) no considering the weight,it's not important for beginners,but lighter=more expensive. good geos is most important for beginners,it can help u to do a good foundation.

Uhhh...U'd better get no half link,there's no strong half links because the structure is not reasonable. If u don't care about weight,then KMC K710/K810 id your best choice,super strong... If u want a lighter chain,but still strong,then choose ECHO TR or FRANCE SACHS...

Uhhh...Used to ride both stock and mod,Stock for ZOO! and ECHO,and mod for ZOO! and Monty. Now I sold my mod and only ride my stock because mod not suits me... Now I ride an ECHO Control SL,and I really want a KOXX Sky...
