I may be interested in your wheels for my new build. What are they? What are you looking to get for them?In an unfortunate turn of events for me, it looks like I may be parting out my fall guy. If anyone here needs wheels (included two sets of tires) a nemesis tuned fork, seat tube, handlebars, stem, or seat clamp for their fall guy (or similar bike), shoot me a pm.
hahahahahaha.love the fall guy man, as soon as landon gets his act together and makes a 26" er, I plan to order one....
That means you don't love it.love the fall guy man, as soon as landon gets his act together and makes a 26" er, I plan to order one....
No i love everything about it besides the wheel size...Landon and I went back and fourth on a couple of emails about the 26'er and it seemed like a possibility...That means you don't love it.
Look at a Nemesis Project DeathMobile.
I just want be sure i dont loose my "essence" in decline's eyes...No i love everything about it besides the wheel size...Landon and I went back and fourth on a couple of emails about the 26'er and it seemed like a possibility...
Cmon Landon chime in...Dont make me start a 26 inches of love thread...
That might be a good idea though...
Thanks for the props and the great referell Bicyclist :biggrin:The wheel size is what's to love.
The Nemesis DM has a Spanish BB, 14mm hub, internal HS, and similar geo. And it's available 26er. So, it's very similar to what a FG would be w/ 26" wheels.
I think there is alot more than 24" wheels to love about the bike, like you said the 14mm hub, steep head angle, color selection, clean heat tube, and incredible clean graphics. I want one in baby blue bad.The wheel size is what's to love.

A little off topic here, being that i'm delving into a completely different type of riding, but seeing as this has turned into a thread mainly focused on tonic fab i thought i'd throw this question out here.There aren't many surprises left. I don't recall much at Interbike I hadn't already gotten a glimpse of.
It's not that I think Tonic Fab is sitting on the Next Big Thing, it's just that it's a little more fun and useful to introduce a bike when it's sorted and ready to sell.

yeah bunch of crap in my eyes...I just like to keep my wheels consistent and want to avoid building an overgrown bmx bike...Your more than welcome to an extended test ride of my personal bike while at RAYS, if you give it a shot you might forget about "essence" what Decline magazine says about bikes and even stop using the word combination "Urban Riding".

Well i have to say im a definately a mountain biker with some bmx influence not vice versa, my stable now includes a Soveirgn as my xc/trail bike, bottlerocket for dh/fr stuff, and a doc that i am busy "redoing" as a park/rays/dj bike.ManhattenPrjkt - I can see where you are coming from but what are you going to ride w/ this new bike? If it will be set up for street, park, and DJ's - I would at least take a test ride from Lee. I had a blast at Ray's last season on my USB - you could ride that whole place on one but it really shines on the boxes, park area, pump track, and hip jump. I had my 26er as well and that stayed in the car the 2nd day. Judging by your lineup a USB or Tonic 24"er would be a great addition.
I saw the Sov and BottleRocket in your sig - that's a great line up. I have been thinking of getting a BR for next year - I think it would fit my style of riding nicely.Well i have to say im a definately a mountain biker with some bmx influence not vice versa, my stable now includes a Soveirgn as my xc/trail bike, bottlerocket for dh/fr stuff, and a doc that i am busy "redoing" as a park/rays/dj bike.
I really want to stick with 26" wheels and 2 brakes but plan on going singlespeed...I know it sounds goofy but it works for me. Anyway the DOC just isnt doing it for me because i have 2 other bikes for trail purposes...I would love to have a steep head angle clean design bike like the fall guy in a 26"er...I like the Mob but want to run a Chris King headset...Alot of these bikes become similar when it comes to angles,so what your really need to be concerned with is the craftmanship so that is why i really like the fall guy. Landon does the best job with graphics i have scene in the industry and the baby blue is a perfect paint job (see baby blue w/ all black part )...
I need to do some looking for now im riding the doc til i make a decision.
Ok, so its soundin pretty fricking sweet. Any word yet on when it will be available to the public?Hopefully they'll be a better explaination of the cross bike on our website before too long. The short story is that the Titanium tube functions as a spring which enables the bike to have about a 1/4" of "travel" with-out any maintainence or weight penalties. And it looks pretty neat.
That bike also has a few neat details that set it apart from typical "custom" frames. Things like custom drop-outs, internally machined HT (very light), aluminum seat tube insert (easy on carbon posts), and excellent chainring/tire clearance with short chainstays and no dent or bends are things we are proud of. The production bikes will have a couple more features (gimics to some) that will additionally set it appart from the crowd.
Grom-Dom you do know that Ray's is not open during weekends until Nov 4th, right? Your more than welcome to take it for a spin..
