Just won this frame off eBay as another little project, from what I can make out it's a 2005, don't know a massive amount about them so just wondered if anyone could share any knowledge on them, and also recommend what forks/shock I should go for
Cheers
They are good, them 2005 ones, really good
What frame!? 🙂
That's the best colorway, too!
Orsum.
I think a Boxxer Race will be the best fork
Would help if I put the link in.....[URL= http://i940.photobucket.com/albums/ad247/jpcnc/Screenshot_2015-01-31-20-45-06_1.jp g" target="_blank">

Looks crackin' 🙂
That bad? :-/
What are those pinch bolts for on the headtube...?
Well apparently it's adjustable head angle, I'm assuming that it will use different inserts to achieve it, anyone else had one or know anything about it?
You won that? What did the bloke who came 2nd get?
Two headtube inserts- one is neutral, the other +/-1 degree depending on orientation.
Ace frames, better with a coil shock.
Ive a bunch of inserts and a CCDB if you need any bits
That bad? :-/
Not good enough for the STW crowd but very good in the real world where it matters. 😛
Is that the Mini or full blown DH? I had an '07 mini and it was a very good indeed. A bit heavy but they have an nice feeling rear end. Sticks to the ground with just thee right amount of sideways flex. I ran a fox coil (TF tuned) and some 150mm fox 36s on mine and used it for DH only - couldn't really pedal the bugger as the seat tube makes for a short post and i've long legs. If it's the mini then Lyrics or Totems would be ideal (my fox were a little short if im honest). If it's the DH then i'm out - i know eff all about bigger forks.
Don't worry about this one cracking - it wont.
Think it's the full dh should arrive tomorrow, more than adequate for what I'll do with it, cheers for the feedback pal
Its the mini, 200x57 shock needed
Cheers for that 🙂
