monty boi Posted April 16, 2007 Report Share Posted April 16, 2007 Hello guy's just found another picture of the Monty 221 ti 08 prototype this time it has been updated by Dani Comas,The main diference is that the curve behind the drive bearings is now more sweet and the frame looks like more flat than before. The stem has a little window on both sides just below the cap and is a polished 2007 model, but we dont know if the measurements have changed or not. The rear disk is in aluminium and special for wet conditions. This rotor wont be installed in the serial bikes. Thanks.Adam. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevecoust Posted April 16, 2007 Report Share Posted April 16, 2007 hmm, i cant really decide weather i like it or not. i have an 07 ti and i probably prefer the look of that to mine. steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greetings Posted April 16, 2007 Report Share Posted April 16, 2007 I wonder if the 2009 Pr's will adopt this shape. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark W Posted April 16, 2007 Report Share Posted April 16, 2007 Word. It just looks thrown together. I don't really see why they didn't just bosh some straight tubing in on there? I know they can probably bump the price up by £50 or so by using curvy piping, but screw it, it looks turds and won't really benefit anyone.

Matt_Tupman Posted April 16, 2007 Report Share Posted April 16, 2007 (edited) Lot of odd things about that bike, maxxis tyres, megamo rotor, ti pedal axels, stem and the rear rim. Wonder if he's running rubber rear pads, plazmatic style.I like the look of it, mine should be here late July sweet!

Ali C Posted April 16, 2007 Report Share Posted April 16, 2007 nicest looking mod.....ever!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Posted April 16, 2007 Report Share Posted April 16, 2007 Surely, being UCI, the tubes should curve the other way, to increase clearance above the frame, rather then make it worse? Just looks utterly pointless, being different for differents sake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamR28 Posted April 16, 2007 Report Share Posted April 16, 2007 I think the idea of that top tube is to increase the support of the head tube... its not as if the frame isn't tiny enough anyway! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James_Porter Posted April 16, 2007 Report Share Posted April 16, 2007 that is the best mod i have ever seen... infact, its that nice i want one and i have never ever felt this way about a mod before. i love you.

Walleee Posted April 16, 2007 Report Share Posted April 16, 2007 I think the idea of that top tube is to increase the support of the head tube... its not as if the frame isn't tiny enough anyway!Finally some sense!and for those saying it looks 'thrown together' of course its been thrown together, it's a proto for god's sake!!look at his back rim!!!!!I'm not a fan of the rear triangle, I kinda prefer the current style dropout's but then the standover height would be increased on the proto.whoever said it was a uci bike? and whoever said monty were biu? monty are a bike company, not the organisation that organises comps and such.... maybe you meant they are biu orientated, but again, whoever said that?

Sam Oliver Posted April 17, 2007 Report Share Posted April 17, 2007 Not to sure what i think yet, it's about what it rides like, but at the moment it looks morestreety than any other Monty's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Monty have traditionally been much more involved with BIU comps - at one stage the Monty team only rode BIU (I guess that's not the case now?). Their bikes are more geared to the BIU style of riding and the BIU sections - I.e. the bikes are shorter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
