Ash-Kennard Posted March 6, 2008 Report Share Posted March 6, 2008 But if its anything like the 26' frame then it will be ultra stiff and alot! better build quality and a perfect compramise between weight and strenght. I dont think ive heard of a ozonys break yet, obviously eventually they will like all frames, but they are lasting the same time if not longer than deng frames.porter did, but i expect nothing less of him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

basher Posted March 6, 2008 Report Share Posted March 6, 2008 porter did, but i expect nothing less of himBut porter also said when he was up north here that he feel more compfortable on a ozonys than he ever will on his gu frame.How long did they have there frames though? quite a few months must of been 6 at least? deng frames are hardly bomb proof czars are cracking after 6month, zoo mods crack.Adam was on a ozonys the weekend gone so unless eh got a new one his is fine and if he did thats saying something that he bought another.The cheaper option isnt always the best.

The Duck Posted March 8, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2008 (edited) adam bessell cracked his Don't think so?May be able to bring the prices down a little depending on exchange rates and shipping costs, but not much...I wouldn't pin your hopes on exchange rates, the pound is set to depreciate even more, because of the recent boom (as in £1 - $2) government put interest rates up too high, now trying to cover their arses by going on about recession like its out of their hands. Sure you know that already Adam, but just for those who don't...Edit: Anyway balls to getting an XR26, £649 is out of my price range. Still more than happy with my Cannibal anyway, just being a fanny. Edited March 8, 2008 by Quackers!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Duck Posted March 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2008 Hm, From what i can tell, it looks like the XS26 and the cannibal 2 will be available in Anodised silver or... brown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abtrials Posted March 9, 2008 Report Share Posted March 9, 2008 porters frame only craked due to a defect on the frame, so they are ultra strong and bessel ent snaped his yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Duck Posted May 28, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2008 Bit of a bump, thought I'd post this picture of an XR26 that belongs to this guy we bumped into at Buthiers. Just because I don't think a picture of a real live built up one has surfaced on here yet... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex-Mitchinson Posted May 28, 2008 Report Share Posted May 28, 2008 Looks stunning! There was a mod one at koxx days as well, don't 'spose anyone got a pic of it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Rainbird Posted May 28, 2008 Report Share Posted May 28, 2008 What's the score with having 3 stock bikes with little variation between them? The only major difference appears to be BB height, though I haven't looked at them in much detail Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamR28 Posted May 29, 2008 Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 Just because I don't think a picture of a real live built up one has surfaced on here yet... Doing Stan's pics today :wink2: The 3 frames are all different - the Cannibal is the lightest at around 1.75kg, then the XR26 at 1.9kg, and the XS26 at 2.1kg. All *similar* geos, but ride differently and different strengths. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bessell Posted June 1, 2008 Report Share Posted June 1, 2008 The 20 rides really well road it a koxx days i really really liked it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mat Smith! Posted June 3, 2008 Report Share Posted June 3, 2008 I really dont like them, and i dont like the geo on alis proto, the first ozonys was best. Matx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eskimo Posted June 5, 2008 Report Share Posted June 5, 2008 They all look a bit turd. And as the mod is loads smaller it kinda 'looks' over built. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
