[ibeflip]

We got word of when these will be available. The numbers will be pretty limited on the first few runs so if you want one pull the trigger soon.

The Cult frames are a little less expensive than I expected.

[Big Ben]

you pay in dollars what we pay in pounds. sigh

I know about taxes, shipping yada yada. This post is not so much about uk vs us disparity but about how much of a freaking good deal that bike is.

Odyssey Parts:

Twombolt Cranks, £139.99
Vandero 2 Front Hub £ 50.57
V3 Cassette w/9t Driver £ 91.95
Quadrant Rims £ 71.98
CFL Stem £ 49.99
Monolever £ 16.54
Evo II Brake £ 33.10
Aitken Pivotal Seat £ 27.58
Aaron Ross Grips £ 7.35
Linear Slic Kable £ 7.35
Aitken Tires £ 36.72
Twisted PC Pedals £ 14.70

------------------------------------------------
£547.52
(at todays $ vs £ == $883.479)
Even using Source's sale prices...

So if someone in the uk bought the complete at $659.95 (£406.44) they would get all those Odyssey parts listed, save £141 and get a free frame, fork, headset, tubes, spokes, chain, bb, sprocket, seat post / clamp.

That is SUCH a good deal.

What about the Model C complete? Will you guys be getting that soon too?

[Albie]

Is the high end Funday complete really a Funday frame?

[JohnW]

Nope.

[Albie]

Nope.
So they went through the trouble of getting a wave downtube frame, but didn't spend an extra few minutes heat treating it? Kind of odd, but I guess that is what you have to do to sell frames.

I'm not sure where the differences lie, but it is not a real Funday.

If you add up the Odyssey parts alone, they come out to more than the WHOLE BIKE retails for. No way they were going to throw in a $400 frame on top of that.

Nonetheless, that is still one hell of a deal.

[Big Ben]

its got the wave tubing, but dropouts arent hollow (i guess theyre similar shape to the model d ones).
its still a hell of a deal on the parts package alone, i dunno how strong the frame is but if i recall correctly jim c was riding one for a while. worst case, the back end is a bit twisty (problem ive had most with complete frames), but you can pick up an older sunday frame for like 1/4 of what they cost new

Yes. But it isnt the Funday Aaron Ross frame with 41thermal, hollow dropouts, integrated chain tensioners, post weld machining etc....

With each of the completes they come with a frame of the same name. So the Funday Pro, comes with a Funday Pro frame...

With no post weld machining being done to the frame, how can we be sure of the bottom bracket's roundness.

[weedbix]

hehe. Not as much of an issue if it's not post-weld heat treated.

[MPK]

Cult improves the original Fit scenario of identical frames with different names. now they are identical, have different names AND different manufacturers

Guess not.

One more reason not to order from Albes.

[human]

Relax, he hasn't posted in a thread since 02/04. If you really want to know, call them.

[ibeflip]

Guess not.
