[Closed] Most desired frame?

If Scott made the voltage fr with a longer seat tube then I'd happily buy another. Couple that with some 115-160 uturns up front and all 3 shock linkages and 3 different length shocks to have the travel range from 130-170mm and I'd have the perfect do it all bike.

Something by Yeti , Ibis or Turner failing that a SC or Transition , this side of the pond I would say Cotic Rocket or an Orange 5 / alpine rates well

Specialized Enduro Sworks 29er. Which is a little bit like lusting over an Ikea kitchen, but what the heck.

I'd like a go on a beargrease carbon too, though.

I'd probably have a Tallboy LTc or a Bronson. Would love to try an SB95 though.

Ti Charge Blender is what I want.
FS wise probably a Banshee Rune or Spitfire.
BMX - Native Trendkill.

POSTED 16 MINUTES AGO # REPORT-POST

Bought one today after test riding it and absolutely falling in love. Bikes have always been more of a tool to me until test riding the SB95 today. I have never felt so confident on a bike before.

Intense carbine and the carbon versions of the

Pivot Mach 5.7
Spesh Stumpjumper Evo
Devinci Dixon

are all on my list. Would be tempted by the Cube Stereo if I were to go for 650b

i would love one of those jones ti frame/fork bikes 8)

Niner SIR.9

Oh, hang on... 8)

Having said I'd have one of those 3, a carbon version of my Horsethief with a shock with lockout and Reverb stealth routing would do me just fine.

This:

Pivot Mach 5.7 Carbon

I have to look at one of these every time I get my bike out of the garage 🙁

But seriously... the whole 650bollox means I'm just going to keep riding my current bike for as long as possible 8)

Demon Frameworks hardtail. Stainless tubes, antique copper finish, polished head tube lug. Most beautiful frame I've had the pleasure to hold.

And a 2014 V10c to replace my existing v10c with the ally rear end!

this years full range of FS bikes from Santa Cruz looks nice along with the Nukeproof mega

Full sus Yeti SB95

Hardtail Litespeed cohutta....

Transition Covert Carbon

Bugger. I've just drooled on my keyboard. Unfortunately, with that price tag, I'm more likely to own a pet unicorn.

Castellano Bow Ti. I rode an Ibis once.

I want a carbon Transition Bandit but seeing as they've stopped making it in a proper wheelsize I can't see it happening.

For me an old school dean frame or original Spesh epic ( not the full sus one but the lugged hardtail)

Carbon covert or yeti sb66. I'll have to make do with my ally covert instead.

Nicolai Ion 16... not sure about 650b or 26" wheels though 🙄

2nd the Liteville 301.

No idea why. I just want one.

Mine was a carbon S Works Enduro and I managed to treat myself and get a full bike

If you have a bunch of perfectly good 26" kit to hang off it, then 26". Otherwise 650.

i seen the 26'er s works enduro last week, thats one sexy looking bike!

also the new Evil trail bike is pretty sweet too

Another vote for the Liteville 301.

I'm another Spech fanboi and want the S-Works Enduro 26 with the CCDBA CS shock and a Stumpy Carbon Evo 26.

I lusted after the X Wing enduro frame since it came out and I finally got one a couple of months ago and love it.

my brother has the 2010 enduro comp stunning bike but your knackered if you want to upgrade the shock!!

I think Mondraker make the tastiest-looking frames, however when doing a google images search for "Summum" I was surprised to see pictures even easier on the eye than their DH bike.

And back to the bikes...

I'm in the slightly better situation as I have the Evo. I think I can change for most if not all coil shocks. Until recently I wanted to put an air shock on it, now I have sorted out the spring rate and it is amazing.

I'm sure Mojo will carry the stanchions with the silly eyelets for the normal frame, if this is the case you could probably swap to just about any Fox air shock.

Mine has a RP23 fitted as standard and you can buy these from Specialized to fit the 2010 Enduro instead of the RP2. Specialized say that the CCDB Air wont fit it though.

Kevin has the S Works Stumpy carbon and was amazed at how it performed in Verbier this year compaired to his Enduro.

I'm sure Mojo will carry the stanchions with the silly eyelets for the normal frame, if this is the case you could probably swap to just about any Fox air shock.

i know the boys over mojo and they said he cant even upgrade due to the eyelets. need to buy a evo link!
bit stupid in my eyes by spesh

 

Ti Soul...if such a thing were to exist.

Has to be a Nicolai Ion 16 650b

need to buy a evo link!

Do they say the evo link will fit an air shock? How?

I can't see why they can't put the business end of an RP23 on the stanchion of the RP2.

I have asked but they can't do it for some reason

Cotic Soul because it's got beautiful clean, fuss-free lines. I'm not one for wierd cluttered shapes.

I'd like a Ti version of my Buzzard with an EBB.
Please Sam.

Stanton Slackline Ti.

Ragley Bagger 288.

Custom colour Dialled Alpine.

Ahhhhhh.....

Same as the OP - Santa Cruz Nomad. I ordered one 5 weeks ago and It STILL hasn't turned up!! It's waiting to be 'processed' at Jungle!!! Come on people - I'm pulling my hair out here!!!

Carbon niner with matching rigid fork mmmmm

Seven.

Sola Ti. With 650 wheels for me, where money is no object.

The Demon is beautiful though.

Right now, probably a Kinesis Maxlight Sync in medium (29er).

But that's this week.

The Ti Soda did till a couple of years ago.

Mine's a SC Blur TRc, which I was lucky enough to get for a steal a couple of months ago and it rides just as well as I remember the one I demoed last year.

right now Im wanting a kona process 153 but sadly the dont seem to be out yet 🙁

another one for the kona process 153, quite like the last herb and cube fritzz too though!
Maybe in a year or two *sigh*

I Ache
Just managed to win a Specialized RP23 on Ebay to swap for the RP2 on Kevins Enduro. Abigale has been riding it whilst her Reign is in the bike shop for a multitude of repairs from our Alps trip. Somehow I dont think she is going to give it back to him.

I wouldn't give it back to him. They are absolutely brilliant bikes.
