100% cromo frame construction, replaceable oil-impregnated nylon main pivot bushes, titanium bolts and shock axles, 6lb flat frame complete. this one got 370mm chainstays, and a 69 degree head angle with intended fork.

Cromo is already pretty flexy and with a design like that I can see a heap of flex coming from the BB. Maybe if you could sort out a linkage that attaches to the top tube and shock mount it could eliviate this problem. Just food for thought.

To be honest Tim I would really like to have a ride sometime when it's built. I'm currently in the market for a frame like this. Is it rear dérailleur compatible? And have you thought about using bearing at the BB pivot?

I think thats very neatly executed! Especially the cleanliness of the bushing main pivot.Excellent work.

How much travel?

Although its not a bike that would suit my use, about the only thing that doesn't float my boat is the pierced/capped top tube junction.

I second that, an ovalised and mitered junction would look a bit neater.

looks awesome!
had a squiz at your pinkbike pics, thought people had to see this...

coolest logo goin round at the moment IMO, wicked.:cool:

PS. What suspension gear have you got in mind to "make it bouncy"? and are you gonna paint it, leave "raw" or polish her up?
sorry if this is like 20 questions btw... curiosity!

Looks like a sweet set-up, would like to see one of those moving and see about how it feels... Would like a review once some-one is riding
