Yeah that tensioner placement is a big fail. Not sure what the options are but if that’s the best option then it’s just not working

Don’t sweat it. Designed to be seen on, not ridden.

Pinnit Cycles Shredmaster - The Armchair Engineer's Dream Is Now For Sale - Pinkbike

If you can’t find the bike of your dreams, then why not build it yourself?

The bash guard and tensioner under the bottom bracket / gearbox of my Katipo have taken a fair few hits including bending the tensioner arm.

That thing borders on un rideable...

 

[jrewing]

I like the bike. B the other stuff doesn’t matter to me.

Borders? Fine on a smooth flow trail I suppose.

That's about all I had in mind... Or a nice trail trail.

Be fine on cressy

 

[moorey]

Be fine on cressy

If you walk the rocks.

 

[fjohn860]

Be fine on them too

EDIT: Not under me though. I'd rip that thing off entering the first rock garden berm thingy

I kinda feel bad for the bloke. Obviously stoked AF about his frame nearing readiness for distribution and wanted to get a pic out, but didn't think to have the patience to wait until they had the production-spec tensioner and chainstays ready -or- clearly explain this is a pre-production prototype with a temporary tensioner installed.

Bike should be sick once the final details are sorted.

Scanning their socials and they posted this in 2021. Would hope the final production bike is similar.

Surely Pinnit Shredmaster was also just a placeholder/April Fools name too then.

Maybe they're waiting on the trademark to come through on the Moorey High-horse?

That position has been filled.

Sounds like Transition may be announcing the new Smuggler tomorrow.
Already working on the explanation to the wife on why this is a 'need'....

So keen to see what they've done with this geometry-wise.

We taking bets? Will sit neatly between the Spur and Sentinel I'd imagine, so I reckon 130-135mm travel, 64.5-65 head angle, and obligatory size specific chainstays. Whatever it is, should sell like hot cakes.
