per vital, doesn't sound/look like it. but this may be the last round of frame launches that includes it.
Random new bike thread
- Thread starter Sandro
- Start date
I see lots of new, exciting opportunities for medium sized rocks and muck to get trapped…
Works well to grind fiberglass.
isn't pyga run by some of the guys that ran morewood?
Affirmative.
Luckily that trunnion mount looks pretty resistant to sideload. I would think it's fine this way.
As long as it's welded in straight.
I wonder what the reason for using it on this frame was? Can't be lack of room unless they wanted that exact leverage ratio.
Haha, you know what made me say no?
Centrelock.
I could deal with the rest of that weirndess.
Something doesnt add up. With those seemingly light hubs, 24 and 28 spokes (wtf, 24?), trail bike wheels over 1500g means relatively heavy rims. Not crazy heavy, but for that weight they better not be expensive.
I've been begging my frame building homie to build up something alot like this - less travel though.
I'm not sure if this guy is still around, but I recall him posting here pre COVID:

Tora Cycles make something like that.
Steve Geall on Instagram: "Ridden this @tora_cycles EVH 160 a handful of times (inbetween the showers ! ) and it's so rad , it feels so capable of everything you can throw at it . This production prototype with a steeper seat tube angle n higher bb makes it better to pedal up or down , plus the colour looks sick . Looking forward to riding it more in the coming months on a few trips here and abroad , shes a weapon . Cheers @neil_pengilley for building this so quickly . Thanks for the continuing support from the best below. @tora_cycles @dmrbikes @trpcomponents @foxmtb @schwalbetyresuk @rapidracerproducts @mucoff @rimecuda @stonehengecycles @jameswyattt1"

that black one IS a Tora, at least the picture was from their website...
$3500 USD without shock. 
Trail building with a FS SS is a dream of mine!
looks more like 3 idlers... still, I don't care. tell me moar about this gear box bike!
Wow! The one with the PeteSpeed gearbox?
I wish, nah it this one.
This is it, it needs some work as the rear is powder coated, my mate who has it right thinks the shock is blown and the decals are miles off original.
