Literally my thought process.Shorter travel with an X2 and it has a picture of a dog on it. I'm sold.
Can't believe they haven't made a multi-tool for it, tbh.That main pivot size, god damn.
Looks like they have used a BSA bottom bracket for it. It is laaaarrggee!That main pivot size, god damn.
Word was Turner was trying to sell the brand off. Can’t imagine it’s worth a hell of a lot now.Was talking about that on Sunday actually. Been a while between drinks for them.... last new bike was the RFX back in.... erm.... 2016?
Where are they?
It looks good colourwise, agreed that the decals on the chainstay should never have made it onto the final product. Same with the top tube decal.Back on the dreadnaught theme, I’d friggin rock this colour.
Might be the next rig after the enduro.

Yeah but when you're riding your bike and forget what it is, you can just look down (anywhere) and then you'll know what it is again. Thoughtful.As I've said before, it reminds me of older Pivot bikes with decals and stickers everywhere.
Agreed. The Blue is acceptable, cerise is not bad either but the Druid colours are really well considered.Yeah but when you're riding your bike and forget what it is, you can just look down (anywhere) and then you'll know what it is again. Thoughtful.
This is the other Dreadnaught colour. Less lair than the epic nerd one, more interesting than the stealth black one:

Still annoys me a little that they couldn't have just copied the Druid formula. Every single colour option for that bike looks amazing and unique without being borderline unicorn vomit.
The purple and orange aka Cosmic EggplantDruid colours are really well considered.

What total pissed up chunt wrote that load of wank?
Hard disagree - they are a limited edition and with an art feel / reference - I think the marketing for the target market is pretty good - it’s not meant for mr burly steak and veg man - I quite like the frames tooShould be in the douche thread!
Then simply state they're a clash of digital and classic artforms, none of this “Where does one world end and the other begin?”. It ends when you stop looking at your fucking devices and go riding.
