hi guys...i will get straght to it. :D
well first thing i will write about about the frame, my bike is in black with 20.5 tt. they also do it in blue/grey with 21 tt. it bb is slightly lower than most frames, its at 11.8 (i will talk some more about this later on). 14-15 inch back end is also normal-a bit long dependnt on what your ride (street, trails,park). it weights in at a nice 5.2lb, proper light :lol: . brakes are on the chain stays and its got lovly euro bb.
True Temper butted chromoly tubing for reduced weight (double butted),
Euro bottom-bracket only,
Designed by Josh Stricker for all-around riding,
Extra low chain-stays for 990/chain clearance,
Standard head-tube only,
Bassically a lighter PBR w/high tech tubing and Euro BB.
well thats it for the tech on the frame...i bet you all want to know who it rides.
well i was coming for a Mutiny Sinister frames..which has the totaly oposit geometry to this Josh Sticker, so i was a bit worryed. to add to that i run 30-11 gearing which i thought might be a bit of a problem with the chain stay brake mounts.
this frame has a low bb and a longer back end (sinister had 13.75-14) and what looks like a higher seat post. well boy was i wrong....this is the BEST frame i have ever rode, it is very balenced in the air and is so much nicer to manual and icepick. straght away i learn 2 new trick on my first ever ride (icepick to fakie and icepick and over a spine). all i can say is WOW...... S&M know how to make frames. no wonder why all the best riders ride for them (stricker/adam baker). the frame feels really light (im guessing about 25-26lb) but also sooo ridged (sp?), my mate has a fly and is super light but feels like every trick its going to snap.
well i will add a bit more and get better pics 2mor....this should keep u all going for a bit.
