i think CFB has a 4130 F1 coming out. Go with steel if possible. i think youre on the right path in choosing between those two companies. they are built and ridden by their respective owners and you can actually call and talk to them. That is a major advantage. I think the cost between the two will be about the same eitherway.The Amish said:Im so torn.

the rl is 17.25" in the shortest setting - not that long.draco said:Chris for your style, I don't think the brooklyn will fly. It's got some long ass chainstays.
Honestly i might just keep it, and stick it up on the wall for a rainy day. It's the bike a learned to really get down on so it holds a lot of sentimental value. Who knows maybe one day I'll figure out how to keep a chain on it and then we'll be all good. Its a sick urban basher and Dj'r I never have any problems there. Its when I take it to places like Diablo/platty and really light it up that the **** hits the fanblt2ride said:It sounds like it may be time for a new frame. What are you going to do with you Dare? I don't think it will sell too fast here...
this is the first thing that pops into my head when i look at the geo of that frameWestCoastHucker said:if DW would get off his lazy butt......
Amish we found your new bike.Curb Hucker said:this one is even better, the Steel '06 Bike
welcome to the world of RIPOFF that is Tony Ellsworth's business.The Amish said:every bolt is constantly loose no matter how many times i tighten them or how strong the lock tight I use. Cant keep the chainguide working right, chains always getting sucked up which inturn destroys derailuers and the hanger. Bottom brackets always fall out. The list goes on and on. In fairness I do beat the piss out of the bike 15-20ft drops huge Dj's and so on. It just doesnt seem to take the abuse
That sounds like me and at this point my demo 9 is perfect. If I was racing it would be canfield all day long(love rearward axle path).The Amish said:Demo's are to big I've already tried them, I'll never own a crap and fail again after my last experience with one. Wouldn't mind getting my hands on an intense. Canfield appeals to me for lts of reasons. Mainly the hundreds of solid reviews. The thing is I'm more of a freerider than a dh'r I love the streets, monster jumps, things made of wood and so on. I need a bike that wasn't neccesarily designed to keep the front end glued to the ground. Besides canfield bros. chain line is amazing
As for hardtails I need you Draco guys to rip off my specialist design and one off me a steel one. The Alluminum just isn't gonnna last much longer
