Blimey it's bright orange in the flesh!! Looks cool though, especially as the first thing I did was to get rid of the nasty Yorkshire white rose and put a nice proper head tube badge on it. 🙂
This is cheering my up slightly from feeling too ill to ride on a really nice day.

Gonna get cracking with the build I think.
BOOORRIINNNGGG ;-p
I'm liking the new colours/decals. I especially like the On-One logo without the white background.
I stand by the old saying "If it 'aint from Yorkshire its shit"
I'm glad your not soiling the Yorkshire emblem you dirty Lancastrian scum.
Throws On-One and Orange at you
Worryingly thats much better packaged than my TI frame that came a few weeks back , must be more delicate 😕
wow, yep bright indeed.
grumm, did I buy my polished tinbred frame from you?
The new (very) green slot dropout Inbreds look reet nice too.
At least [b]my[/b] new one does... mmm... bike building time tonight, me thinks. 😈
Si smoother boat ride from the US! Probably came first class with some fizzy wine and fish eggs. Prefer the slightly dirty Far East look myself (good protection being a must) 😉
Is it a BMX?
What makes you say that?
Tinsy - no, never had an on-one before.
'tis widdle 😀
Well I bought it small on purpose, though lining it up against my medium Pitch it doesn't look that small at all really.
Needed it to be small enough for my gf to use, plus I want to use it for messing about on jumps etc so small is good for me.
Where did you get the headbadge??
A guy called Geoff Moorhouse - £14 inc postage. Can give you his email if you are interested.
Nice colour.
Do they save money by getting you to draw the decals on yourself with magic marker though?
We need a prize for 1st pic of one being ridden down a hill!
Think I'll fail on that one - need to go and buy a load of cables (and fine the other shifter and grip 😉 )
hi grumm id like his email please regarding the headbadge. i was so tempted to buy a pink one lol but my blue one is only a few months old
Wow!! I knew it was a mistake clicking on this thread 😕 . . . it looks fantastic!
Must resist . . .
Edit: Thank God for that - all 14"ers now sold out
[i]puts credit card away with a huge sigh of relief[/i] 😉
mama i was just thinking on how much could i get for my near new blue frame so i could get the pink one lol i was even trying to justify it to myself saying well i could do with an 18 rather than the 16 i have now . which of course is rubbish 😉
His email is gemo@f2s.com
Dammit do I go and buy cables now or wait til tomorrow?
😛
Grumm - Can i have Geoff's email address too?
Ta
🙂

Edit: Thanks
thanks mate

Was about to say you might be able to get a standard 456 in pink or brown but they are all sold out too in 14". Oh well, I guess mine will be exclusive then, can't have been too many of them 🙂
but they are all sold out too in 14"
I know . . . I checked 😉
Probably a daft question, but do you need to get the BB, headtube and brake tabs faced before you build it?
I emailed on one about that and they said it wasn't necessary as they are faced as part of the production process. Only just put it together but no problems so far installing stuff.
OK - unpacked, ready to start building now. For all the orange that Grumm's is, mine's very, very green. My initial fears about the blueness of the kit that's going on it (that worked fine on the white Inbred) are a lot less now that I've seen it against the seatclamp. It's too late now anyway - it'll have to do!
ive chickened out of the headset fitting for tonight i think 🙁
went in proper on the piss, not worth it, when i can get the shop to do it tommorow mefinks...
You can't beat an inbred for value, but in my opinion the graphics have just lost their subtle touch.
not on the lemon one tim, you can hardly see them, white on light yellow, its reeeally pretty
Sorry about the state of the garage, the amateurish quality of the pic and the bits of bike all over the place, but it's built and I think it's ok? Brakes need a bleed, head badge needs fitting, saddle needs a level and the chaintugs need some playing with...
... but it'll be finished tomorrow night. Happy days. 🙂
I really like the green and think the blue goes quite nicely 😀
The brown seat against the green frame is the clincher though.
Best one yet.
Thanks BlingBling - very kind. The grips are the Spank chocolate ones - a bit darker brown than the Charge saddle, but not far off. Just want to find some lock on collars in blue that'll fit the grips - they seem a bit chunkier than ODI ones, but it might just be me.
A guy called Geoff Moorhouse - £14 inc postage. Can give you his email if you are interested.
I like the head-badge. Any chance of his email address too please?
Coolhandluke - you'll find it further up the thread. I've got one too, and it's really nice - finishes the frame off very well, and a great bit of craftmanship as far as I can tell.
gemo@f2s.com
I'ts a bit further up Luke
grumm-----what size is the orange [coloured] 456?
Grumm Looks sweet mate nice one 😉
Green one is looking nice, not too sure about the blue and brown, think either one on its own would look cool but not sure about both. imho 😛
sonik - mine is a 14". Its a 'play' bike for me and a regular bike for my missus.
ive chickened out of the headset fitting for tonight i think
MTFU 😛
Cheers grantway
looking good fellas.
Yay, got my green sliding drop inbred when I got home from my night ride last night.
Boo, the missus has let me check it over but has now put it away till xmas (is a present from her), no amount of arm twisting is going to convince her that I need to build it now.
Must say for £135 it looks bloody well built, my Curtis costs almost 6 times the amount and I wouldnt say the quality of the welds is any better, but time will tell.
Can anyone tell me how long the gear cables would need to be for a 16" 456? Trying to order the outers so I can build up as soon as frame arrives!
On that orange frame, did i see non-slotted cable guides on the top tube?
What is it with on one and solid cable guides?
Apart from that nice frame.
What is it with on one and solid cable guides?
So you can run full length outers.
I was planning on running full length outers anyway so that's good. 🙂
i thought it was Singlespeed Grumm, dissapointed.
Was going to be but the missus wouldn't have it. 😉
whats the paint like this time round, had one of the red 456's a year ago and some parts were not even covered in top coat, ie you could see the primer underneath especially where the seat stays met at the top of the seat tube ?
Any better, GlennG, 2 chain tugs waiting for you 😆
Paint looks good to me though I haven't checked it over thoroughly.
Bunners, have checked mine over prior to the missus snatching it off me and it does look very good indeed, the inside of the seat tube could do with a clean up but generally the paints really good, my first On One so pretty pleased with the quality.
Got yours through yet?
Cheers on the chain tugs will get them off you on next mondays ride?
My choc brown one arrived today just as I was leaving for work so not seen it yet but the box looks shweeeet ! 😆
So has anyone finished their build yet? I've just got the rear gear cable and shifter and the front brake to fit. 🙂
Very close here - it's been ridden up the road and back - just struggling a bit with bleeding the rear brake. It'll settle down overnight, I'm sure, and if not - gives me something more to do tomorrow night.
I put my headbadge on (straight, I think) and sorted the saddle out. The chaintugs have had to go on back to front as they're not On One ones, and, nice as they are, don't fit the back of the dropouts quite right.
I'm looking at sorting the variety of colours out asap - with the red Reba stickers quite possibly being the first thing to go. The blue has to stay, and I do quite like the brown saddle and grips. Maybe in time the world will come to appreciate blue and green together... 😕
It does look like a very nicely finished frame - way better paint than my old white sliding dropout Inbred. Very pleased so far - just can't wait to go for a good ride tomorrow after work. It'll be the Winter Inbred in the morning with the mudguards and the like... in the rain.
ive decided to collect a complete LX groupset from 3 diffferent bikes, (instead of single speed) and then use that as an excuse to buy some x9 or x0 for my trance towards the end of the winter 😀
(its going to be stripped and overhauled over the winter while the 456 is getting broken in)
top!
should be ready for the weekend

so like this, but with different cranks and without the SS kit
i reckon it would look REALLY good with white bars...... birthday coming up, parents and sister want a "Present priced" suggestion for me.
bars please!
Not singlespeed? I'm dissapointed Olly 😉
softies the pair of you
I put my headbadge on (straight, I think) and sorted the saddle out.
I spent ages moving mine around by very tiny amounts trying to get it right in the middle. 😉
Maybe in time the world will come to appreciate blue and green together...
Maybe, but maybe not blue, green and brown. Ths colour wheel says no [img]
[/img]
😛
softies the pair of you
Yup, I'm a big screaming hetero.
The Pink is fantastic as is the Black
Working nights - can't wait to start stripping 3 other bikes to build them up, with all the best bits.
Where's my Barry White!!
ARGH!
Anyone got a photo of a brown 456? Just placed an order...
Where's my green pompino!
Choc brown 456 arrived yesterday, unpacked today - looked the dogs other than it does not have the on one man on the seat tube !
Nice though, cant beat a bit of brown 😆
Good news bunnerscj. I must admit, the new paint-jobs strongly influenced my decision to buy. I know, i'm a tart. Is the paint quality good as others say?
Yup, I bought the summer season pretty much solely because of the silly orange colour 🙂
Any more pics?
What delievery service do they use to deliver the frames?
Do On-one send out 'dispatched' emails or did the frames just turn up?
Not sure about the delivery service sorry - i didn't get an email.
I asked On-One about delivery. Apparently they use DPD, and you [i]should[/i] get an e-mail with delivery details, but since things are very busy for them this may/may not happen. If not, you should be able to enter your order number into DPD's tracking system as the sender reference, then enter your postcode, to obtain tracking information.
I didn't get any confirmation of dispatch or anything like that. I got a payment confirmation when I placed the order last week and then the frame just turned up at work on Monday.
No dispatch email, just turned up, infact no one was in so they just left it by the door - luckily the back door !
Cant beat a bit of back door ! 😆
Bunners its well known you like a bit of 'brown', Mondays nite ride will take in Dukes Mound just to keep you happy 😉
It's arrived!! Yippeeee
Only slight quibble - there is a heck of a lot of swarf rattling around inside the frame. Any tips on removal - or just stop it rattling?
i didnt get any comms from on one, but im not complaining, as they container landed friday, and it was here on monday, so they wernt hanging around with getting them out.
🙂
with all this talk about bikes would like to build one up using my old school kona and few upgrades on a Slot Dropout Inbred whats size bits will i need to do it so i can swap stuff rather than a build from scratch ie seat post bb and head set for winter hacker
BB shell is 68mm wide and English Threaded. I don’t know what length BB axle you need, please ask your crank manufacturer - the chainline needs to be 50mm (normal for HT2 cranks).
Chainline, again, should be 50mm min. Smaller will mean your chainrings hit the chainstays. We did this to optimise tyre clearance with a nod to modern standards. Yes - they do have less chainring clearance than older inbreds. But yes - they have more tyre clearance and better durability too.
Seatpost size :: 27.2mm
Seatclamp size :: 29.8/30mm - clamp not included
Headset size :: 1.125in (inch and an eighth). Not included either.
Faced and chased disc mount and BB/Headtube :: No
Waxoiled/Framesaved? :: No
Frame weight :: 5lb (18in size)
Colour :: Red only - no custom options
Nearly finished mine now - just got the front brake to fit. Took my first (sort of) ride on it, to the LBS, brakeless, to get some cables 🙂
Feels nice already though.
last part, the front mech, comes today all being well.
expect liberal picture showers tonight and over the weekend
