edit: a liked the ST more....
i like a couple of thier frames just not the high end one which are over glorified

They really have a way of making a "bike" so much more.

They are the new US distributor. Matt seems like a great guy to deal with and good for getting custom spec'd Hope brake systems from. He can set you up with the 2pc rotors in any size and has severak anodized colors for the Hope levers and caliper plugs.
He has eleven frames on order, due in soon, including a couple of TST's $6074.99 out the door. Think I'll take 2 at that price so I have a spare.

2400eu for the Helius ST????? Damn.... no support for European products from my part... 
G-BOXX all the way. Death to the derailleur. End of discussion.
I almost won a brand new 03 bronze anodized ufo ds on german ebay the other day... final price for the frame without a shock was around 500 euros... goddamn I should've bid higher. The same seller had listed a new raw 04 helius st (no shock here either) as well... went for approx. 500 euros. Deal of a lifetime and I lost...
I'm all depressed now, thanks for ripping the scars open!! :mumble:

Other than the apparent looks difference, what are the main differences between the Lamda ST and Helius ST? Both are about 6.5"-8" bikes, both can handle an 888. One is slightly more slack, and the other has a full seat tube and can take a ft der if you give up some travel. Is there a big strength and weight difference? Do they use the same size shock (same leverage)?
hmmm 3000$ for the Helius ST... i dunno isnt it a tad high??? The demo8 is at 2300$ (in Europe) and they give you a seatpost and a bb.
Compound Rearhub: This innovative technology allows for a faster and simpler removal of the rear wheel without getting your hands dirty. The chain, rear cog and disc brake stay attached to the frame. The wheel is coupled to the transmission part via a positive fitting and fixed with a thru axle. This hub system comes standard on the Nucleon TFR and TST models.

a quick look to the FOX site next time
damn.. if my Mpire was a subpar frame, I would on the TST for kicks and giggles.
Nice to see the Lambda still being offered. I thought...well. stuff

If the G-boxx bikes ever come down in price I may take another look at them....I was a big fan of the G-boxx
If those frames were chics, I'd bang every last one of them!
From the right side the TST is one of the cleanest looking bikes I've ever seen.
Its too bad they slap in you in the face by making you pay more money for the better shock. That is bad marketing. They should just raise the price 200 and not insult thier buyers with that option. No one is going to spend 7000 on a frame and settle for a secondary shock.

Don't worry, she's not going anywhere...I love her too much.zedro said:
As for the rest of the bikes on the site, yeah I'm surprised they're still running the Lambda frame. That's been around for years hasn't it??
looks good..
though I'd stay away if i was living in the US
with the weak dollar right now its incredible stupid to buy a bike from euroland...
over 6000 US for a frame with rearhub and rohloff/g-boxx shifting...

i don't think there is much you can do.Kanter said:
here wholesale prices weren't that much lower then retail in the past,
and i don't know how much the US customs charge for imports from european union
I was wondering the same. Anyone else think it would be a problem?dump said:

thats why you gotta buy a Canfield
supposedly the production frames will get some kind of guard between chain and disc to prevent that,
Check out the Tandem's...freaking awesome.
If i ever won alot of money, i would have more then a few nucleon's in the family.
