Is there a patent on the tennis ball detail?

Great bikes you design always cool to see them build.

 

[MMcG]

How much rear travel?

What is the wheelbase?

 

[UiUiUiUi]

beautiful!!!!

except for the singlecrown fork, but thats just my stupid thinking about dh bikes.
for me it needs a dualcrown fork to make me happy
yeah and that seat...
Flite for life!!!

 

[binary visions]

Is that a Manitou Swinger on there?

And do I spy a little flame shaped carbon detail behind the headtube? Awesome

Man, you do such great work. I gotta tell you I have reread that MB article several times, it is so cool that you do this stuff at your house!

 

[COmtbiker12]

Sweet looking bike! You always make cool ones and its nice to see them built. I agree it needs a doublecrown fork though.

 

[Mattoid]

Thats awesome! Let us know how the 7" sc works.

BCD, ever thought of making a FSR bike neaky:
I'm guessing no because of the added complexity and flex, but thought I'd ask.

Because that would be a dream bike for me:
1.5 headtube
FSR suspension
internal transmission
66deg HT
46" WB

You designed single pivots? I had no idea

Excellent craftsmanship all the same, keep it up man!

 

[flymybike]

Just Great! I remember riding your 2x4 and it felt so nice, quick and the rearward travel was pimp. Keep pluging away.

 

[RD3]

Great looking Bike! Like the geometry, looks very fast.

Excellent craftsmanship all the same, keep it up man!

its pivot placement is where the design element is

plus with an FSR linkage he'd have to pay too much for the patent considering he sells these bikes



bcd, once again very nice

 

[kidwoo]

What does bcd stand for?

Bitchin' Carbon Destroyers?

 

[RideND]
