Did they ever get made? 1st or 2nd gen only perhaps? How much of an impossible task is it going to be to get hold of one?
Not quite, but in the same ballpark and looks bloody lovely. If i was a bit shorter i'd have that.
That frame linked is catalogue purchased from China
All that seller does is resell after use for profit
Go custom route from China I'd say
Rich/tdog, cheers. That sort of frame although 16" does have plenty of standover. I'd need to make sure the reach was similar too, but it does look short.
It also uses thru axles and tapered headset, which don't work with my stash of old kit 🤦♂️
And due to wanting to use old kit, I'm keen to keep it 2nd hand.
There were 14" Tinbreds, as my vertically challenged mate had one.
Ah, maybe that's what was made but none in a 456 flavour?

Where from if he buys them for less than that?
Iirc there are various Chinese fabricators that you can choose custom options
Advertised on ebay as well
🙄
Plus to note: titanium tubes aren't expensive to buy in China sources
It is the quality shaping and welding quality which one pays for
Eg mid naughties or most Merlins, most Litespeeds and especially Moots as can be known from research
Struck me as pretty reasonably priced though, a custom chinese ti would be 2-3x as much? Welds look nice to me tdog, you don't agree?
MrsbeanZ had the first one built about 10 years ago .
