Anyone know or can measure the reach from centre of the crank bolt to centre of the top of the headtube right where it joins the upper headset piece ?
Thanks

How long do these wrapped frames last in general ?
Mine is a carbon frame, Josh has given me some good advice. Wish those repair shops where they do undetectable carbon repairs weren't so expensive
-
Anyone know how to contact Josh Leech ?
I've tried messenger 5 days ago but no reply.
I want to ask him about repair work I need doing.
I Don't know what his forum name on here is.

Thanks Joe.

Any answer beyond 'none will be a suprise to be honest but I'm hopeful.
Ross's response above is how I'd imagine it .
So where have people taken a wash in years gone by and is there a steady stream of pizza hut mopeds buzzing between Chelmsford and the site to fuel the weekend ?
With a farm that size there'd be an old bath in a field somewhere we could queue up for ?

Last minute desicion to go to Radfest this weekend.
What kind of facilities are there for showering , food etc?

Have a look at the Phatworks frames under development. There is a thread on here somewhere about them. Some great all round geo options, very nice brake options, modern tapered headtubes with different b/b height options. Being developed by a well know UK rider/desginer whos been in the scene for decades. Phatworks on Facebook is the way to go.

Bloodstock currently in my stable....
1st time I've taken both bikes out at the same time. The kloud now has Crewkerz carbon forks, Crewkerz 145mm stem and Clean bars since the photo.

20 hours ago, Mark W said:
I think it was more that they'd invested money in their new frame/fork/stem 1.5" steerer setup, and for whatever reason that run hasn't worked out. They're still carrying on with their parts (we received an order today), it's just the new framekits aren't being made.
For what it's worth I've heard of other companies having something similar - lead times for production in Taiwan are super long, and if there's an error in production that can really f**k things up for a company.
For the bars, it seems they had a sketchy batch of them. We had loads go out that were solid, then they suddenly started breaking, then went back to being fine. In fairness to Dom he was sound about getting them warrantied.
Warrantied or not, the price of a new bar is less significant than the pain of broken wrist/collar bone etc and the price of time off work to heal just for a 10% saving in carbon. The weave / manufacturing etc maybe be believed to have advanced to justify the weight /material loss, but totally not worth injuring customers. The try all bar has a long history of lasting surely they can learn from that construction.

Thanks for replies.
how about the hashtagg carbon handlebar? Released about the same time and 10% lighter than the previous try-all Karbon bar but with more aggressive bends and height which to me must equal a longer length of tube for less weight!!!!!
-
Would like to know how well these are holding up for people? As many others have probably thought, they seem scary light but obviously Hashtagg are confident to justify asking the pricetag.
Are they taking a battering or designed as comp rider one season accesories?
-
Fair enough. The buying power of the pound when re-stocking sure has fallen. Keep up the good work and great service and look forward to the new site soon.
-
they sure did. Pretty sure its been going for as long as Ive been riding, the last five years.
Come on San'tart, dust off your suit. I'll sit on your knee if you give me some discount
-
Bugger! Nothing on facebook either....I've been squirreling cash away in anticipation of some seasonal bargains. 1st time in a number of years they haven't done this .

Doesn't the carbon actually hold the aluminium drop out in? Although that drop out piece will be bonded into a section of the fork leg, not just the tip, I'm not sure if cutting into it and the carbon skin surrounding it would be detrimental to the strength.
I've never seen a crewkerz carbon fork, only online, so others might know better than me
Just trying to opinions on this as I really wanna buy this fork
-
please say it isn't true
-
Thanks Adam. Don't really want to buy a new front Hub and rebuild the wheel , though the crewkerz fork is indeed a thing of beauty.
What are hub options for this fork? Only crewkerz, hope , king or can others be modified?
I've seen crewkerz aluminium forks for sale on here modified for normal hubs, though don't know in detail what was done as the drop out hole is already oversize. I doubt anyone would want to cut into the drop-out of a sexy new carbon blade but just looking at options.
-
Im a big fan of Trialtech components for their build quality and ingenuity. Anyone know if they have any plans to or prototyping of a carbon fork? Im pretty sure I'd be buying if they have one.
-
Good work, screw the haters, you are more advanced riders than me, ive sturggled with gap's to front for a longtime and stilll havent got the technique right.
-
^^^^^^Exactly what bikeperson45 says^^^^^^^. Just unreal but at the same time leaves me feeling like I just bought my 1st trials bike this morning and dont know anything
-
Tube profile all round is good, using the same stiffened rear triangle from the Raijin. Top and down tubes looks cool and have had thought put into them.
Here we go again with ANOTHER flaming from the English speaking countries about the name, just like Inpulse and the new Crewkerz Jealousy. The French must just throw their hands in the air and say F**k it , it doesn't matter what we call it they wont like it. I kind of like the name.
Looks like they've stepped up the standard of their graphics over the HashTagg decals painted on the Raijin, which are horrible.
I like it and I'd buy it.
