Yeah, bushy beard, good rider, on an onza, bit of a give away.

Come on Ben, you said pics would be up a few days ago

Why build a foam pit when you have a pool and live somewhere hot?! Looks like you've got the right shape, you get full rotation?

Aye was a sweet lil ride the pre ride night out/in was awesome too. Next year again then lads That's Joe Seddon, Onza team rider on a Limey 320. Weapon.

I guess i work with a balance of weight, strength and cost. I cant afford the lightest and certainly couldn't justify buying it if i could. i Certainly wouldn't want the heaviest and i don't require the strongest as i'm by no means big or a basher.

Gotta say i think that looks really nice

I've got a brand new, drilled 32h rim sat in the garage

Have a look at Alex DX32, i ran one on my Pashley which had similar brake spacing, got one brand new for sale in my topic

07 is too similar to what you have

Looking pretty good mate need to ride oxford sometime this month!

But why would you want all the weight put at one end of the bike?! Rohloff, shimano nexus or alfine rear hubs weigh a ton!

You may need to be slightly more specific in your explanation. Are the headset cups moving in the frame or is the headset wobbling. Put your front brake on, gently grip round the headset, and rock the bike back and forth, do this with top and bottom cups. Should then be able to work out where the headsets loose (assuming its the headset). Check you've got enough clearance at the top of your steerer for your top cap and that the star fangled nut is low enough, and that everything is done up correctly. What headset is it?

I don't think hammerschmidt would stand up to trials abuse, which is a shame because the idea could be awesome. In all mountain applications if they (Sram) can get the weight down then i'd be tempted, still its a half way attempt at solving a problem that a lightweight quality gearbox would remove.

Haha, fair enough. I got the ones i've got off a mate, not so light use..... lol

Where from?!

Yes, i'm running a Chris King HD in mine and i know Andrei is in his. Standard stock spacing 135mm damn nice frame it is too

Rail rides were awesome, some damn big moves there, equally good on stock and mod. Impressed.

Why not its longer than a mods are shorter and have BB height of that height and bigger... Whats the reach on it?

Pics or it didnt happen! This makes things interesting.

Surely Funbolts are far too big for the holes in the frame?

That there Mr Shrewsbury is a bit good like! Looks a nice set up

About as cheap as you will get for a high quality, proven, competition frame

Are you trying to imply that i'm sat here with my cock in my hand? Bizarre. I wasn't knocking him for trying, far from it, i've been very tempted to do the same if i had the time and resources; what i was trying to point out was the obvious fact that the general geometry of the frame will be as far removed from a trials bike as possible and that it should have been something he should have considered in the first place. Guess its a case of live and learn and try again. Which no doubt he will do

Looks pretty damn tasty i've got say, shame they use the silly drop outs so you cant use a king I would have thought that anyone with some reasonable engineering/bike knowledge could have figured out why there's two jockey wheels...
