You don't need to be an 'investor' to invest in Singletrack: 6 days left: 95% of target - Find out more
Been asked by a friend what I thought of this on eBay, and I don’t recognise it! We have six On Ones here, from really early ones to relatively recent and thought I was familiar with all of them..?
On one have made some dubious frames but 100% nothing this shite !!
Toptube looks a bit like one PlanetX used, so might have been a sample.
They had a big sale of prototypes a few years back. Could be one of them.
It's not very clear but I think it has a sticker on the top tube near the head tube that says
Inbred
In which case it most definitely is not an on one but does have an on one inbred sticker kit on it.
Well from the out of focus pic above I thought it may have been one of thier wierd jump bikes (Gimp?) But seeing the proper pics on ebay with the inbred stickers, makes me think it isn't genuine.
Personally I wouldn't touch it with a barge pole.
I was interested in buying an On-One Freeride frame circa 2006, but no amount of beer fuelled googling can provide me with the name of it any more. Pretty sure it was made by Astrix. Anyway, this is the best that I can come up with....a tiny picture if you scroll down.....but the top / head tube junction looks to be the same as the frame above.

So as mentioned above, I'd guess at a prototype, or a small run that has been forgotten about over the years.
A ha!
The FS model was called the Growler:

And the HT model was the Storker:

(Seems impossible to find a decent photo of it but is potentially the same frame)
Looks like a Planet X Jack Flash.
And is this really where we are now? Knock off One One frames?!

2006 - On One Storker. Hardtail by Astrix. 50-100pc made afaik
Not going to flare the headtube on that storker !
Is it being described as "downhill mountain bike" on eBay, perchance?
PMSL remembering the word ‘storker’ as per schoolyard-slang
‘Yougorrastorker?’
‘No, itsmetrowsaz!’
