The stickers should adhere better on a smooth surface than a rough one, its still aluminum not something like nylon or ptfe or something where you have real adhesion problems...

It's actually a piece of PVC pipe to make sure the rear dropouts of the frame doesn't get compressed during shipping by the careful delivery people... :)

yes that too.... lol

But wouldn't the Axle protect the frame from Compressing? that is why i said it's t protect the axle.. :-)

no because the swingarm can still move on the axle if compressed.
you need something larger than the axle to prevent that, hence the larger-than-axle pvc pipe

Downhill bike on a students budget:



The people at Norco painted the frame like that... Let's just say, people notice it coming. :D

If everyone does it, what than what the hell.

It's and old photo and I've changed a few parts (tires, bars, pedals) but I'm changing the frame soon so I see no reason to make more photos.



As for newer action photos


Love the first 2 berms on that track. On the first one if you really pin it you can ride it close to flat or even flat.

No, it wouldn't really (only would stop it from compressing if you put pressure only on the axle. The axle isn't screwed to the frame at both ends. Take the pvc pipe out and you can compress the rear triangle by pushing near the axle.

this thread is cool- it's fun to see bikes and not see fighting about what they weigh, or don't weigh
