or an R9 with a single crown?

It is Frank on his R9 with the manitou or the marz, cant remember.I also spy Frank riding a different bike... is it the Gruitr? or maybe even the Passion??
Max was doing comparisons between the R9 and the F-Bomb so obviously Frank had to get a little play time in there.
Looks like Max was tearing it up.
R9 with a Marz SC; workboots and a combo hat/hoodie and 3 day stubble! :biggrin:I also spy Frank riding a different bike... is it the Gruitr? or maybe even the Passion??
i was taking pictures and I can attest that frank was being very careful and just shuttling the bike down to the next area to session. The bike is very small, max is the only one who fit on it and is also why it looks odd. I have some more entertaining pics of frank but I am worried if I post them he wont make me a frame 
This was my first outing with a new camera and lens so sorry if the pictures aren't quite there yet but it was a fun day. I can at least attest that the bike pedals very well, which surprised me. I was not able to really get some fast trails as I had no helmet either. I will write a long review as soon as I have a frame in my hands, which hopefully is not too far out.
oh, and the r9 is the one max has been riding but the fork exploded so they threw that on there. Frank wante to watch the rear wheel paths of the two bike to compare through different terrain.

The f is for fugly.
Normally I'm a big fan of frank's work, but this one needs to go back in the oven and bake for a while.

Since when do fanboys work on improving the design? There is one person who designs/builds these things. I'm sure he takes valid criticism into consideration.
Also yes, the patent process is a long and arduous one...

Agreed, looks way too much like a mish-mash of things ending up with a Huffy badge on it
I concur, this is the ugliest DH bike I've seen in awhile.

dude, he is "Frank the Welder" not "Frank the Rocket-surgeon." What did you expect?i spy Frank without a helmet.. tsk tsk tsk
Frank - put on a helmet, the intertubes are watching.
manufacturers should star including a Head Tube to Floor Height for situations like these
