steve@banbury-trials Posted August 2, 2007 Report Share Posted August 2, 2007 i'd like to see disc and magura mounts on the inside of seat stays ,and horozontal dropouts for more stock fames like m4rko said earlier .also maybe more trye clearance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilikeriding Posted August 2, 2007 Report Share Posted August 2, 2007 (edited) 150mm bb rise frames, 40" long bars, 1200mmm wheelbases, NO SEATS, 1000 engagement point hubs that service themselves and 1kg stock frames (that are strong) Edited August 2, 2007 by afroman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greetings Posted August 2, 2007 Report Share Posted August 2, 2007 Just disc mounts and horizontal 135mm dropouts. Geometry is a personal preference so there's no point in complaining about it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
balfa Posted August 2, 2007 Report Share Posted August 2, 2007 1. Horizontal dropouts in 135mm width. None of this 113mm rubbish.2. Inbuilt booster or better alternative.3. 4 bolts mounts with bigger thread or alternative.4. Seat wouldn't go amiss. Am getting jealous of people with ashtons.5. Disc mounts so we can at least try it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janson Posted August 2, 2007 Report Share Posted August 2, 2007 Vee mounts, vertical dropouts, a little tucked up tab for rohloffs, properly designed paint jobs and stickers (not just one colour and some text from dafont.com).Oh and more frames under 2kg.

Ryan Blackwell Posted August 2, 2007 Report Share Posted August 2, 2007 fair enough mate.4 Bolt mounts under the seat stays.Longer mod frames. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy d Posted August 2, 2007 Report Share Posted August 2, 2007 4 Bolt mounts under the seat stays.If you have a high frame then it ends up a slightly funny shape so that there's room for the booster, probably wouldn't be an issue if you went for something mega-low though. (but then they don't deserve to be called seat stays any more) You also get the interesting side-effect that the brake only squeaks when you go backwards! Mine does anyway. S'all good. I did it cos I'll get a V at some point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2sixstreet Posted August 3, 2007 Report Share Posted August 3, 2007 Eccentric bottom brackets. No need for a tensioner and can still use vertical dropouts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazy_gap girl Posted August 3, 2007 Report Share Posted August 3, 2007 The one thing id like to see back is the Orange Zeros, i love the frame design and i think if they were to tweek it so it had new and old in it, i think it would be awesome!!!, mmm long and low orange zero!!

James Quigley Posted August 3, 2007 Report Share Posted August 3, 2007 USB connectivity...........so you can programme in your moves instead of learning them. Just stand on the bike and let it get to work, while you look smug. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greetings Posted August 3, 2007 Report Share Posted August 3, 2007 The inverted Magura mounts would give you more braking power but would be incredibly difficult to set up and could cause problems.Was going to order them on my new frame, but - firstly there would be no space for a brake booster, secondly the pistons would get in the way of cranks and without running a very wide bb or narrow rim / really thin pads you probably wouldn't be able to ride at all. Most of the frames with inverted mounts i've seen, have a really long seat tube and are far from compact. So it's either inverted mounts, or low standover which riders seem to prefer.On the other hand, it would be great on mods. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy d Posted August 3, 2007 Report Share Posted August 3, 2007 The inverted Magura mounts ...incredibly difficult to set up and could cause problems....very wide bbYeah kind of. My brake is slightly more awkward to get at being underneath but it's not too bad, maybe cos of the high frame. Fine for me cos I wanted that, probably not gonna be popular with most people in the Tuckage thread though...I had a bit of a mission finding a long enough BB especially since I wanted square taper 73mm shell. The limiting factor was actually stopping my chainring from scraping the frame though, there was a few mm clearance between pistons and cranks even with a 120ish BB. This all just for one example though I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Shrewsbury Posted August 3, 2007 Report Share Posted August 3, 2007 (edited) Start making frames which are sort and are able to fit saddles on 24inch and 26inch, bikes these days are getting boring.

Revolver Posted August 3, 2007 Report Share Posted August 3, 2007 why not have 26" trials frames with a bashplate, like the base ta26? because using a bashguard means that the thing you are stalling on is free to rotate as your pedals do... so if you wanted to turn your cranks to get them into a better position, you might lose your balance.

Token Posted August 3, 2007 Report Share Posted August 3, 2007 Alot more Carbon Fibre. It's essential if the bikes are to get stiffer and lighter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomm Posted August 3, 2007 Report Share Posted August 3, 2007 Better/more innovative tensioners - perhaps an international standard for frame-mounted tensioners similar to the Leeson KISSS. Especially now that no-one really needs gears any more now that the comp rules are relaxed. Better dropouts - QR dropouts are just so last year. In mountain bikes it's all about the 20mm axles/maxles - Why not in trials? People are going to realise that Neon / Fluoro looks shit...We've sort of discovered the best geometry for big sidehops, big gaps etc. But it will be a while until we perfect sensible natural-orientated frames since it's much more difficult to measure their performance quantitatively. People will realise that these bikes are more fun overall.SPDs. Honestly. Alot more Carbon Fibre. It's essential if the bikes are to get stiffer and lighter more expensive but more bling Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deonn h Posted August 3, 2007 Report Share Posted August 3, 2007 The tpa systems on each cylinder so each pad can individualy be ajusted.Zoo forks with v brake mount.. (possibly on the rear but it could be too powerful and would maybe snap them)stronger rear rims Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craigjames Posted August 3, 2007 Report Share Posted August 3, 2007 defo rear disc mounts that are up to the job on all types of frames not just comp orientated ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
