such a sick bike....i want one

 

[biggles]

amazing looking bike mate. where are they from? weight? might be a good idea to wrap the right brake stay in case the chain floats a bit?

Nz

they are kiwi designed,haven't weighed it but its not really a concern and it feels super nimble in the air and over rocky sections.No need for anything for the chain coz it doesn't touch.

Looks so clean! Nice work.

 

[Pushie]

The red and white is definitely the nicest for me at the moment.

Also worth mentioning your custom made carbon shock protector ... bloody awesome work mate and so neat.

custom guard

I am still tinkering with different mounting options for the carbon guard ,so far the velcro is doing fine after 2 days of riding.Had another awesome day tuning the bike and am still getting used to how quite the bike rides.Stoked

These frames make me hard.

Hey mate

Love the bike, looks amazing and just read up on it and everything about it is so smart, like why they have made the gearing like that and how it makes a difference.

Have you had any trouble with the chain slapping on the frame and maybe taking away the paint? just wondering

Would love to ride one, have fun on it!

 

[Science]

At what point does the rear suspension pivot? I've been studying these pics and neither myself or my partner can work it out.

chain slap??

Its a thing of the past.This bike is soooo quiet that my mates don't know I'm behind them unless they hear me giggle like a school girl when we are almost rubbing tyres..

After a month of riding almost everyday the paint has no sign of chain slap on it at all.

Re.Wheel path moves away from the bike so there is never any feeling of getting "hung up" if you come up short .High pivot point ,the linkage bolt is just under the hub axle .
