Hi all -
We're posting this for feedback to hear what you'd like to see in a dream AM/FR frame.
As we strive to become innovators in extreme/action sports, we're looking to offer something unique in a bike frame. Below are some of the benefits and the direction we're going after many months of research and years of riding:
Ti hardtail frame designed for maximum versatility, durability and fun - just the way we like it. The frame design will allow the use of a range of fork travel (130mm to 160mm) to enable a range of riding styles.
We will utilize seamless, straight gauge aerospace grade titanium (high quality, non Chi-Ti) with properties similar to 3-2.5. This provides the ideal combination of strength, stiffness, and toughness resulting in a very light yet extremely durable frame with that classic Ti ride quality.
ISCG mounts
Reinforced rear disc mount
Vertical drop outs
Target Frame Wt: 4.0lbs
What do you think??? We encourage discussion and to hear your thoughts. If you're building your dream hardtail frame, what other design features would you like to see incorporated. We have our design nearly completed and have been working not only internally but with leading experts in the industry. However we'd love to hear what, you the user, has to say so we can build the best Ti hardtail possible.
Thanks much for your time and we look forward to hearing from you.
