It's a FR/DH Hardtail I no one ever said it was a full suspension. Plus it's a based on the Imperial which is a hardtail.

how much is a santa cruz bullit???
just saw this one too ,,, supposed to be 4x and dj :dancing:
that should be a very nice ride, i've been waiting on that for a couple months now.
just saw it too. that looks super dope. i cannot wait to see the geo on it. i hope the travel is short and the angles are slack, with a ton of standover and a short ST.
i was already planning on the sluggo.. but now with that 4x fs coming, i might have to wait.mandown said:
You'll be happy to know that according to one of their factory riders it will be "the perfect Kenter bike."fiddy_ryder said:
Keep an eye out, I'm sure some testing will be done up there...
which one the 4x or the sluggo? either way,, nooiiiicccee!! i havent seen a 4x type of bike with a 3-5 inches of coiled, sturdy travel, with 150mm up front,, I think that would be pimp. solid enough out back to jump really well but suck up some of the short landings. having some squish out back woulda prevented the pinch flat i got up there when i cased a dub last weekend.tgreathead said:
Both maybe, but the 4x for sure. There really is nothing on the market that's got 3" in back that'll boost you off and suck it up so it should be cool. When it comes out I may get a longer travel frame to replace the Preston and get the 4x for everything else.fiddy_ryder said:
mos def on the 4x scoot.. i really want to see that thing in action now.
There was a lot of time put into that design. They could've had it ready for Sea Otter if you can believe that but the designers wanted it to be perfect so they waited. I think it will really pay off, I can't wait to ride itfiddy_ryder said:
how much front travel is it designed for?
I honestly can't remember. I know its shorter travel overall so my guess is around 5"fiddy_ryder said:
sweet, so the 150mm slider im getting should be well suited for ittgreathead said:
Both Nicolai and Evil came out with the twin top tube HT's at the same time...neither one of them has admitted who's was first...not that it mattered anyway...the same basic design was about 15 years earlier...D
how about torker bmx bikes that had the twin top tube in the late 70's or early 80's. click the link and read the history.

everyone go over to ridesoul.com they give credit to all of the above mentioned aswell as some more
Indeed, the term "cheapo" can oftentimes be construed as a pejorative. However, in the context it was used it obviously meant "relatively inexpensive", not a bash on the possible lack of structural integrity of the frame.Slugman said:
What GAY-A$$ named that bike??? I wouldn't be caught 
riding a "COCK"!!!
The frame looks like a nice design, but that "$H!TTY" name cancles any chance of me buying one!!!

the x4 bike is designed for a 5" fork and the sluggo is designed for a 7" fork.
i will be getting a sluggo and will be putting the new travis on it. its going to be sweet! also from other experances with soul frames they DON'T biuld **** ty frames. infact they are very high quality and they put a fair amoutn od design into their products. you really have to own one to see what i mean. i would put them right up agianst the higher end companies like santacruz for quality

This is what I said:
piece of crap, caplitalized or otherwise is nowhere to be seen. Check out my sig, i have a huge Soul Cycles link and have for over a year. I guess I should have said mucho inexpensivo, but that just doesnt have the same ringescapeartist said:
I just got a Scratch and love it, I would not ride another FR/DJ/Urban hardtail, period. The Soul Roscoe looks like a cool frame, but I've already been sold on the Banshee. When do they come out Buck? How much, exactly, will they be?formermtboarder said:
Dude is Banshee paying you to advertise for them or something?WKC said:
I wish, but no Mike, they are not. I am just that happy with their frame.motomike said:
you do sound like it...u could pay a whopping $200 and get the exact same frame minus the banshee badges/logos (like im doin)WKC said:
and u get the getto ass soul cycles decals!!!!!!!!!
From what I've seen, the Banshee has a few features that the Roscoe does not, and the Roscoe is still not yet available, right? The Scratch was readily available for purchase, and I needed a new frame then, since I broke my P.1. Either way, the Scratch was still a reasonable $400 whe compared with what some pay for their jumping and street hardtails these days.formermtboarder said:
.......And I'll try to not sound sponsired next time I say I like a bike.
that cock looks crap IMO,
i love my 2mxtb, but the evil comes a close second.

what r these features the scratch has that roscoe doesnt? im not being a prick i just dont know
DUH! It's not a Banshee. sheesh! :mumble:formermtboarder said:
Grind plates on the Chainstays, RAD-style tubing, adjustable sliding dropouts. And a pretty hefty warranty, 2 years unconditional, 10 years after that. Either way, thye are both cool frames, and the Roscoe is not yet available. And the Banshee was available through Re:Cyclesformermtboarder said:
