my latest version. These wheels are borrowed from my fully. She's actually getting an overhaul very soon (colors, and wheels). I'll make sure I update this post :D

that imp just near the bottom of page 2 with the blue metalflake undercoat used to be mine.....
anyone know who owns that bike??
Ian, I originally bought your Imperial and then eventually went low on cash and sold her to boshrdcore, who had her recoated in a very slightly different sparkley blue and had chromed stickers done. It looked mighty fine!

I also regret selling her :D
This is how she was redone:

I think I'd buy another Imperial (or Imperial-esque) frame if they started producing them again. I really LOVED that frame.

Sverre, that's Micce indeed taking pics from the other side =). What a wonderful week end that was indeed. I can honestly say the BEST group of people I have ever hung out with. :weee:

i already asked them when they sold the company last year.

as of then, they had no plans to make anything like another imperial---only focusing on the full suspension offerings.

weak, i really need a new imperial frame

No such thing as a new Imperial frame, not anymore at least. :mad:

Here's my latest Imp, which I of course sold last year because I'm a freakin idiot :thumb:

Those are SICK hardtails, Im not a fan or would even consider buying a hardtail but those make me want one! LOVE the look of it, thats a REALLY SICK DESIGN!!!!

I would buy one and not have an issue with it, that HT ROCKS!!! I will get one eventually.

That yellow Imp is so hucktastic! LOVE it :D

I've had my Imperials over the past years done in so many configurations, there's just SOMETHING different about running a dual crown on that huge Monocoque front end that gives you a truely indestructable feeling when you ride it. <3

Over the years I've running a bunch of forks on my two Imp's and the Monster was definately the best!! :thumb:
I agree - that was a fun set-up. I loved my Imperial with the Monster T. It was also a different time back them, though.
