If you're not sponsored and want to be fast, BCD is the only way to go.

Considering the changes he's made for Inedible V2.1, there are virtually no downsides to the bike.

Full custom, light as you want, crazy square bump eating axle path, strong as Thor...(will be)

There is a reason I went from a bottom rung Jr X to top ten nationally in the season I decided to get a BCD...

One more thing that suprised me about the bike....

How incredibly BURLY it feels when you're riding it. It feels absolutly solid in everyway. I didn't expect this for some reason. Between Alex's construction/engineering and the fact its carbon it makes for a bike that doesn't seem scared of anything...the cool part is the CARBON DAMPENS ALL HIGH FREQUENCY vibrations...its nuts!

:stupid: alex give us some insight to the new design
well, the front end will have 4'' or adjustment from the midframe.
i would like to have an option in my front center for different tracks.
i am still thinking of a good way to attatch the two. strong ,no slop,
and light.

The simpler the better.

chain guide standard
15x135 rear hub
one point five
easy rear shock mounts.

Will the frame look the same or is there going to be changes there, very interested in this bike.
swing arms will look close to the same.
the rest will be smoothed out with some
adj holes in the down tube and top tube.

the tubes will remain in a standard bike triangle.

Kyle's bike had a ton of slop, I take it yours is not the same? That was the only BCD that I've ran across and I must say I was very unimpressed. Suspension design and everything was great, but it was completely ruined with tons of slop from ovalized/loose pivots (not shock bushings, way too much slop for it to just be that).

Well that WAS my bike. I never had any slop or anything...
I picked it up and rode on it a bit. It had a lot of slop when I did.

Not ragging on BCD, but maybe that slop was a user-added placebo? Just like "it's not flex, it's the feel of real steel".
Or even better "it's not lacking bite, it's well modulated" :nuts:

how about 15x135 (hadley), with an aluminum axle.

Btw, are you using a 135 with an 85mm BB with an offset (zero-dish) for space for a floater?
yes. 15x135 is what i ment.

yes, 85mm bb.

WheelieMan - Hey BCD, how high is the pivot above the bb on the inedible?
that is why i am enlarging the alum housing the main pivot to the frame.

that and he might not of cranked the main pivot bolts where the
Ahead caps are tight enough. or the spacing in there was wrong and they
will never sinch down.


6.25 is the pivot height from the bb axle

hey BCD, could you post some pics of your shop, ie, how you make those bikes. I'd be interested to what the molds look like, and how you lay up and cure the carbon.
