Winch, until I get some proper studio shots of the frame done, is it OK to use a couple of your pics on the Dialled Bikes website, please?

Yeah sure Mike I'd be delighted. You can grab the originals (very high res) or whatever size you like from Flickr.

Winch - what make are the skewers you're using - is that a 10mm thru rear?

Does anyone want my 16" Orange frame , new and unused for preorder price?

Had some news which means bikes drop way down the pecking order and keeping my house comes first.

Mike (Dialled owner) has said he will honour the warranty due to the situation.

Brand new unopened as delivered.

Cheers Winch, there is hope yet. The news might not be as bad as we first thought.

I can't say thanks to Mike enough for allowing me to transfer the warranty as new.

Looks awesome built up, mine is looking awesome even if it has only got a rear wheel and mech attached to it so far.

Winch, which hope headset cups did you need to fit the slants? They will probably be what's going on mine as well.

Sorry to hear that mosey.

Thanks to mike for an awesome frame!

Just had some great news re blood test results.

Not as bad as we first thought and my other half won't have to give up work, not for the foreseeable future anyway.

Today is a great day, a bonus is i can keep my frame too.

What a difference a few days make.

Cheers accu. Best part is seeing my girlfriend happy. She's not smiled for a while.

Bike build, beer and a curry with the mrs should make this a great Friday.

Oh and one last thing, I have to say A big thank you to Mike at Dialled for being awesome yesterday and sorting the warranty if I had to sell.

Top bloke 🙂

Really Mosey, no thanks necessary.

Go give your girlfriend a big hug.

Then get that bike built and take it for a good thrashing this weekend. Sounds like you've earned it after a stressful week.

Full length outers nearly caught me out too! Got them just before the bike shop closed! Mosey that's good news, I'm happy for you and pleased that we get to see your bike built up! Looks great 🙂

These look fantastic and would love one but would never make use of it! Just sorting out my original 853 PA which I run as my singlespeed winter/filth bike and had forgotten how great it is.

Just saw your build kamikaze, I see you're taking all white to the next level! Look forward to seeing it when it done and hearing how you like the pikes.

Winch,

I've just ordered a MK3 from Mike and am awaiting delivery. I'm short on leg, long on arm and had a Cotic Soul (small) previously. Buy I always found it too cramped and did'nt like having 23 cm of seatpost exposed. Need a sturdy bike that can handle local singletrack, Trailcentre and bike packing without flexing. The Souls was great, but a little flexy. My 14 year old son rides the soul now and loves it.

Is that an 18" frame you have ?
