Price of the GX has shot up. I can get a Clockwork Evo for that price. SLX, Rev....
Jeez, that black one is a great looking bike, superb proportions. Don't need one!
Prices went up on Sunday night as highlighted. Over the weekend we sold more than a months worth of forecast stock.
We’ve also now got a new wheelset on there which is also on our Big Dog complete.
The On-One Wide Trail 29er Boost wheels are built for us by our great friends at Superstar components on their uk made hubs and rims they’ve sourced for us.
Really high spec.
fitting a 180mm disk on the rear is very tight. Anyone else struggle or is it my bolt just a bit too long?
I want to change the rear maxle as I don't want to carry round an 8mm Allen key.
Anyone found good, reasonably priced replacement yet? Thanks
Finally received my XL scandal frame. The weight is 2130g without the axle, which is about 50-60 g. I will build a setup as light as possible for a reasonable cost.
That black one looks mint. Let’s see more of all of yours as you build them up.
Are the wheels going to be available separately?
Anyone know if those Vittoria Gomas are ok tubeless?
My O-O Goma's were the £16 for two with a camelback bottle deal. They may be different from what comes on the bike.
They're the easiest tubeless tyres we've got. Straight on, tight but no tools needed, inflate every time.
Are the wheels going to be available separately?
Yes. We have wheel plans.
Cheers Matt. From what I can work out, tubeless version has TNT on the sidewall but I suspected the normal ones would work.
Confused about the wheels now. Are they shipping with fulcrums or superstar? Still waiting for a confirmation email btw, though it does show up in my order history as awaiting stock.
Well it's arrived and was delivered to my neighbour as I was out, although Planet-x had said it was being returned to sender.
Also got several e-mails saying the replacement order (with the build yourself discount) is being built and shipped next week.
Ahh well, sort it out on monday. In the meantime it is VERY orange!

Agreed, more pics please.!!
I was sooooo tempted with the initial pre-order frame discount but for some stupid reason I didnt jump at it. What a fool.
I'll just have to stick with my 26" Scandal V2 for a bit longer.
I think a 32t standard would go. I think a 34t boost might too. But neither are standards that frame was designed to do so ymmv.
I can confirm, non boost 34t is v tight, but it's just enough.
Any hints on routing a xt hose internally. The banjo means it needs to go bottom up, but the removable plate is at the bottom. Looks like I'll either need to try old skool fishing for the hose, or get new hose with a bolt on banjo kit.
@lovewookie I've kept my cables the same side as the levers. My xt brake fed in from the bottom and out the top via the removeable guide. It's nice and big and easy to fish out.
Ok. I'll give it a go. Fishing top down wasn't a problem, but was a bit concerned as the upper isn't a removable guide. If it finds its way ok, that's good.

Just out on mine waiting for a mate

Ended up getting a new hose anyway as mine was too short. The lbs had a compression fit banjo so fitting the new hose should be a doddle
Mine's due in mid Nov, second container?

We have the frames. We have just smashed through six months of SRAM stock in a month. Sorry.

Ignore me, it was late last night and I was half asleep. The removable guide is at the top. Dur..
Just finish building mine. Fork steerer still needs a trim and I may have the get new brake hoses as they're both on the short side.
Probably the last time it will ever been clean!
Just noticed the On One logo is upside down on one side!
Are they all like this?

#howmtbusedtobe (but with a dropper)
Just got back from my first ride, 30 smiles today, 3000ft of climbing, mixture of road, mud, gravel, roots, stairs, drops, big climbs, long descents. Loved it.
Mines all retro, 1x10, bar ends, inner tubes, 2 finger braking, rigid forks, mudguards and not forgetting the mount for the bar bag.

The on one stickers are not coming off! They are under the lacquer. Do you sell black ones I can stick over the top for a stealth look?
That looks great. What fork. What length?
Looks like the fork off a Genesis Yarn. It's supposed to be 120mm corrected, iirc. I'd be e interested in the A-C too.
@windysurfer is yours a size small ?
@Damascus are you running 27.5 wheels ? Or it’s just a huge frame ?
That looks great. What fork. What length?
@Brant it's a carbon fork from a genesis tarn. Plenty of room for a plus tyre.
are you running 27.5 wheels ? Or it’s just a huge frame ?
@plus one it's an xl frame with 29er 2.3 tyres front and back. Plenty of room to go much bigger. It's big isn't it! It rides great. I think I'll try a shorter stem next.
Limited edition eh? Lucky me.
@plusone mines a medium,2.6 x 29 on the front and 2.4 x 29 on the rear
Just taken it for a quick spin after added a cunningly placed piece of black tape:-) ( and ruining it with mudguards!)
From memory the Yarn forks are 510mm a2c.
Will fit 27.5x3.8 on a 45mm rim and 29x3
*Tarn not yarn

Hmm, I seem to be struggling somewhat (though maybe not as bad as some others on the forum). I have found them very slack, soapy water made them go up but not seat at all. How's everyone else finding them? Unless others aren't having troubles/have some tips, I think I'll just stick some tubes in until I can be bothered to replace them.
On that subject,the frame says it'll take max 2.6, How about the forks?
Cheers
@maycontainnuts. How many layers of tubeless tape have you got? You might have to build it up?
I hope mine is a NO NO too
I might change it to an O NO !
Mine arrived this morning, so I've been taking my time building it up. However, I cannot get the front wheel to fit at all. Am I doing something stupid?
P.S. it's lovely, with the exception of some dodgy paint at the rear caliper mount, but that's an easy fix and I absolutely cannot complain at the price!
Mine arrived this morning, so I’ve been taking my time building it up. However, I cannot get the front wheel to fit at all. Am I doing something stupid?
Check that the front brake pads aren't clamped together would be my first thought?
I haven't fitted the caliper yet, and it's all new kit! Honestly feels like the forks are about 5mm too narrow, but they're on the receipt as the same axle width as the wheel! I'll get my vernier out after lunch and check for sure.
to counter all of the black bikes here.
Update! I am maybe not stupid, just naïve enough to think that 15mm through axle would be the same as 15mm through axle. My older (as in 2013, maybe?) Kona Explosif 650b front wheel fits between the fork legs, my lovely new Fulcrum one doesn't. So I'll sell it on and find a new old 29er front wheel locally, hopefully. And of course my spare SRAM cassette that I have in stock doesn't fit, because new 'standards'! I'll maybe be riding it next year...
Haven't started building mine up yet just wondering how is the fit of non-boost cranks and chainline?
Was going to use my SLX cranks with a standard non boost superstar 32T oval ring. Is there any need to get an offset/boost ring?
Mine is non boost 34T round. There's about 1mm clearance. Put a 1mm spacer between the crank and bb, seems to help a bit and there's enough axle sticking out the other side to attach the crankarm too.
🙂
Does anyone know how the dropper routing works at the front end?
It looks like on the left hand side the brake hose exits via an elongated hole with a plastic plug with an plastic grommet in there. Does this come out and get replaced with a dual-cable plug to allow the dropper housing to enter the frame? Or the plug is just removed and left as just a bare hole? Or is there another hole I've missed in my 30 second quick look without all packaging removed ?
There are two holes in each plug/grommet, it's quite a neat arrangement.
Ah - that wasn't obvious it just looked like one cable hole and one screw hole to hold the plug in place. I'l look properly tonight !
Brant, are you still watching this thread?
PX email today says one last chance for the Scandal offer, but the old code doesn't work anymore- am I reading too much into the email and there's no real offer, just the regular price?
You're reading too much into a badly written email.
Sorry.
no worries, thanks for replying.
Right.... so I'm now half way through setting up my orange large Scandal GX.
Overall I am very impressed with how much bike is here for the money - if it rides half as well as it looks and the quality of the kit I will be very happy indeed. those Rockshox forks look bomb-proof !
(edit - note - the below is not having a go at on-one, but some stuff to check for anyone with a complete build to get it "just right")
However.... the build quality is pretty questionable - all fixable in build but to be honest it would have been easier to start from a box of bits
Brake hose and gear cables all wrapped around the fork and header tube - looks like the controls have been bolted to the handlebars whilst not attached to the stem as there is no physical way of manouvering then all back into place by rotating the bars etc so they all had to come off to be detangled (pretty quick given the matchmaker clamps)
Brake hose and gear cables WAY too long - need trimming. Easy enough for the gears but the brakes will need bleeding of course.
Brake and shifter bolts all fairly loose - shifter very loose - not torqued
Derailleur hanger bolts (the little ones on the inside of the frame) loose - not even nipped up - took a whole turn to nip up.
Shifting / indexing not right. OK at one end of the cassette but not the other.
Mech hanger alignment miles off (prob explains the above)
Both brakes dragging on calipers
Rear calliper mounts on the frame have been painted over and not cleaned up afterwards, so the calliper was mounted to paint rather than solid metal
Nothing here that a (TBH quite enjoyable) couple of hours fettling over a pint isn't putting right but for anyone thing they can take it out of the box, bolt the bars on and go ride - check this stuff out first.
I'll post up a pic when done !
Had first proper ride on mine today. Really enjoyed it. Stable on the steeps and fast going back up. Lightest MTB I've ever had. Hit a few features I've only done on my big enduro bike before! I got a bit carried away and tacked the rear wheel slightly.
Few tweaks needed, could do with a slightly shorter stem and needed to run the rear brake hose properly. Normal slx crank with 32 ring fits with plenty of clearance. Bit of faff with hub converters ( QR to bolt thru to boost) but super happy.
Pic below hopefully...
Why are folks using zip ties for cables on frame?
Why are folks using zip ties for cables on frame?
I suspect its the brake cable and they have got spare olives. They are probably on order and they wanted to get out and ride rather than wait. Or like me, the frames longer than the doner bike and not enough hose to go internal
@markwsf my bottom bracket was painted, had to be cleaned before install. I didn't check the mech hanger, thanks for the reminder.
Rear calliper mounts on the frame have been painted over and not cleaned up afterwards, so the calliper was mounted to paint rather than solid metal
This didn't bother me and I've just bolted them on. How easy was the paint to get off? I forgot to add a chainstay protector on my first ride so Ive got lots of white dots now under some inner tube.
One thing I noticed is its missing bb tabs for a chain device. My hope nw didnt drop the chain so its probably not needed. Anyone using a chain guide?
For £170 delivered its an amazing frame!
@damscus - very easy and just took a few minutes - just some gentle work with a small kitchen knife to avoid damaging the surface underneath just in case the metal had been machined post-welding (optimistic I know...) and to avoid flaking off any ajacent paint (didn't happen - the paint seems well bonded to the frame)
Thanks for the note re bottom bracket paint - as my BB was already fitted it was about the only area where I assumed that would all be fine and left alone - at least partially because as I've never taken this type of crank / BB out before so don't know if there's special tools needed. I'll take a look at some point soon.
Done* and ready to ride.
Compared to my old Scandal, just based on sitting on in the house getting it set up - totally different bike.... exactly what I was looking for, but the idea was to replace the "old" scandal, and I think in reality it's better sitting alongside? I'm really looking forwards to throwing this around a trail centre or two.

* - brake hoses, bleeding and that ballache can wait until another day. That and setting up tubeless.
@damascus
I've fitted a full chain guard to mine (hate chain slap!), its the type that replaces a spacer behind the bottom bracket.
I'm running none boost gpx cranks with none boost chain ring so remove the space from the none drive side and replaced it with the chain guard on the drive side.
@windysurfer what's your chain line like? Can you post a picture? Thanks
I've got my spacer on the non drive side to make 1st gear less stretch so can't really use a bb chain guide. (10 speed)
@damasus it's a Large - set up for me @ 6'1"
Winner so far is Lovewookie by miles..!
Frame has arrived, delighted to see on one have kept up their tradition of the unprotected mech hanger punching through the box in transit and sticking out! Will check if it's bent later. Third frame from on one and had to request replacement dropouts every time 🤪
Sales order number Bigjim please.
What travel forks are people using is it all 130mm ?
Anyone had problems with the rear axle?
Mine wont engage with mech hanger. If I take the mech hanger off and connect them off the frame they are fine... so perhaps something is out of whack. Phone call in the morning I guess 🙁
Mine wont engage with mech hanger
That sounds wierd. So if it's not the mech hanger or the axle it must be your wheel that's getting in the way. Do your adapters foul and stop it dropping into place?
Try it without the cassette on and or freehub so you can see more.
@damascus My chain is in alignment when in in the 5th cog from the biggest ring of the cassette (10 speed).

Havent even tried putting a wheel in... simply trying to screw the axle in.
@variflex if you remove the small bolts holding the hanger to the frame but keeping the hanger in roughly the right place can you then screw the axle in? If so where does the hanger “try” to sit relative to the frame and the bolt holes?
Winner so far is Lovewookie by miles..!
Thanks 😉 turned out quite nice looking imo.
The zip ties on the top tube on my bike are for the dropper, it's an external type.
120mm greenest of green Reba's!
My gx build turned up yesterday, changed the bars for something wider then tried to fit my dropper . Word of warning about the internal dropper routing port , it’s very easy to drop the screw through the empty hole ...twice ..doh . Managed to get them back but had to take the forks out . I also realised to late my spare dropper is to big for the seat tube but have just ordered one of the canyon ones of eBay so not to bad .
all in all I’m pretty pleased with it , seems well put together and the orange looks really good . Certainly can’t complain for the money .

tried pretty much everything. Spoken to PX and they are sending a new hanger in case its that but it screws into the hanger off the frame ok. Looks like the hole drilled in the frame is a very fraction misasligned with hanger so I can only get 1/2 a turn on the axle before it grinds to a halt.
Ho hum, cant fault PX support via online chat... very helpful and fast
Mine, not quite finished but with a chain flung on so I could start shaking it down. Have messed about with saddle and bar heights a bit and I think I'm going to like it a lot.
I'd have bought one of these frames and built it up over the winter but unfortunately I've no money left as I'd already booked 4 days cycling around lake Como this autumn 😎
I am gonna build it up with the 120 Judys from PX. Just need to buy the rest now..
