Ultra low pivot the new rage?It looks like that is where the pivotnis going (it's a single pivot FS)
Pretty sure thats the BB and the set forward seatpost is for 29er clearance.

Looking like a fun build!Here's a sneak peak... Managed to get a dry window in among our La Nina weather in Sydney at the moment to get it all laid out. 2 mins after I took this photo it started to rain again!
The build should happen this weekend!
I had a similar issue with the axle-to-crown measurements when I was trying to get something quoted up from them ages ago. I couldn't figure out why the geo-chart numbers weren't matching up until I twigged the A2C was off. I queried them about it, but they never responded and I abondoned the idea (I think the e-mailed me back after about 5 months or somthing, but I wasn't going to buy from them at that point). They seem to be the only mob that does geo charts that way, not sure why they persist with it as it just creates confusion. Out of curiosity - is the shock shown full length, or compressed at sag in the drawing?As an edit to the above, looking over my draft again I did actually spec a 76 degree SA, so the 2 degrees appears to have come from them building the frame around an incorrect A2C - perhaps built "sagged" - which sucks as that's not mentioned anywhere at all on their site or during the build process. The wheelbase is also about 30mm longer, which is no surprise if they were building sagged.
So far they have replied quickly overnight, but only to say they meaure the frames correctly in the jig when building and for me to send through a picture of the bike "like it is in the draft" - aka on a flat surface. Needless to say this has been done along with a few other measurements for them.
I've also mentioned this sag/unsagged and politely mentioned that's the reason I supplied an A2C, for the frame to built to spec with that A2C!
Communication is definitely slow, that's for sure. Just an idea, maybe worth getting an angleset and asking if they can refund the cost as a quick fix? Doesn't fix the A2C though.The colour looks great - fingers crossed the geo is all sorted!
I haven't heard back form them in the last week since Elijah was going to get Marino to look at it. I sent them another email last night following up (been on holiday for the last week so I've been not worrying about it) mentioning the old PayPal dispute, I'll give them another few days to come back before I lodge it.
Mainly as even on the daycare commutes last week, a few hundred meters each way, it felt really slack but also much shorter in the cockpit due to bein built around the wrong A2C... Given this was my first custom, I would like it to actually be what I ordered
Tell me you're going Formula for the suspension...Communication is definitely slow, that's for sure. Just an idea, maybe worth getting an angleset and asking if they can refund the cost as a quick fix? Doesn't fix the A2C though.
Totally! That kashima is wack with that purple (hoping you don't have factory forks lol)Tell me you're going Formula for the suspension...
That would be my pick too if they'll do it. Did they admit that they got the ATC wrong (aka is that what was incorrect)?I'd see if they'll do your new one at a discount. That should save you both some hassle.
Ask the question, can't hurt...
In so far as they've agreed to replace the frame entirely at their cost. I assume they wouldn't do that if they didn't feel like there was an error on their side.That would be my pick too if they'll do it. Did they admit that they got the ATC wrong (aka is that what was incorrect)?
Welcome to the site! Being an Aussie site I had no idea what you'd written. But Google tells me it's Hungarian and has suggested this for others who might want to answer:Szia, építem a Marino keretemet, és kíváncsi vagyok, hogyan működik a curtis verzio keret? Sokan azt mondják, hogy stabilabb, mint a seregély váz, és jobban mászni köszi a válaszát
