  1. Intergrated HS33 mounts in a CNC’d yoke so it’s stiffer and less to fail. 
     

    Stem length is a hard one as they does change the reach but maybe a slightly longer head tube isn’t a bad idea. 
     

    Gears are done now rules have actually caught up.

    Link of that website as I can't find it? What did he say?

    Hi Pete,

     
    Thanks for your email, it's great to hear from you! I must apologise for the quietness from my end. It must all seem mysterious and ominous firstly the out of date Heatsink website and now it's disappeared! I'm just logging on with Heatsink to get it up and rolling again. The pause has given me lots of fresh new ideas I can't wait to implement!
     
    I'm making progress bringing stock back of pads and tensioners.
     
    You'll notice that the Heatsinkbikes.com URL is now pointing to a placeholder as I develop a new website.
     
    Kind regards,
    Steve

    Just before that spreads, it's worth noting that the two events are so temporally removed from each other that I really don't think it's fair to link them.

    Okay so a huge influencer to the world of trials that brought many items to market that allowed us to ride. 
     

    A generation of riders that moved on, grew up, stoped riding. That market changed. Trials declined in comparison to the peak it was due to the next generation. 
     

    Machining wise they out sourced the work. Pulo is the factory for the frame/fork building.

    They don't make their own MTBs, but they make parts for other brands. That seemed to be the general consensus as to why they stopped production of trial bikes. 

    Deng died and the market changed.
