Its kinda custom
« on: July 25, 2016, 11:45:54 AM »
I don't post much on here (or anywhere) but, lurk a few times a week. Just wanted to share a new setup I finished up. Got a pretty good session with it yesterday! Beyond happy with how it rides. Been building frames and parts for 8yrs now... this by far my favorite build to date.

The frame is a little special being made from Reynolds 921, has maybe the first (I haven't seen one yet) integrated tri pod and 20mm axles. I made most of the parts.

That's a pretty awesome looking rig right there.

More Pictures!

And what's the geo on the frame?

Incredible work.  Longer headtubes than normal?  I like the lower race detail on HT

Wow now that's a badass bike, 20mm hubs front and rear seems a little bit overkill for trails, do you feel any changes with a 14mm axle? riding something that you made must be awesome

Thanks guys!

Yeah, they are 177mm with 22mm spindle.

Incredible work.  Longer headtubes than normal?  I like the lower race detail on HT

Thanks dude! Yeah wanted to run my stem slammed. -Hey I remember you being friends with Charlie.. what happened to him? Guy feel off the earth.

I made a frame tester earlier in the year and ran a frame thru 100k cycles, then cranked it up to the highest force I could do for 1k more. Ill try and link a vid of the later. I slowed the cycles down for this part.



...not sure if this works?
