Action shots are at the bottom!
Well we finally managed to do it successfully! We've been working on this bike for around 12 months now and most of it was on the design but it's finished and I love it! Yes, it does look like an Appalache Real but it's got 4.5" travel and corners like a hoon! It also pedals pretty damn well too! We designed it with the ability to put a different rear shock in there so that with different plates it could accommodate a 6" travel setting too.
Basic specs:
Travel - 4.5" of rearward travel
Chainstay - 15.7" at rest / 16.2" at sag
Head angle - 68 degrees with the Z1's
Top Tube - 22.5" approx
I took it for it's first ride tonight and I think it's awesome... but I'm a little biased.
Anyway, enjoy the pics!
