If you are looking for tubing and frame parts in the UK have a look at ceeway.com the website is basic but that is where i get my stuff. You will have to ring the guy but he can put a kit together for you.

Thanks

Yeah, clearly you're new. Generally you would get a custom frame built for you when you have an idea of what youd like, and that product isnt on the open market.

bwaaahahaha yeah, one of those classicposts...ï can get one on CRC for $250. what a douche.

anyways, what you boys tink of tis? 64 degree HA, chainstays adjustable with the CNC'd flipchip bolt-ons between 230-240-250mm, 1.5", 46mm cdv6 DT, 25mm pivot axle with massive M18 hollow titanium bolts, stonkingly big rectangular 4130 chainstays, 18mm square seatstays, bolt-on shock mounts, cnc'd shock collar to keep the titanium mounting hardware nice and easy to mount and utterly unbendable...

i can feel by the (lack of) movement in the chainstays how stiff it is...its practically un-flexable in any direction with my arms. pretty much looks like a thumpster swingarm. its funny, im lookin at the pics, it doesnt look that big; but when i put i next to my akuma's, it looks beastly. i think when i see the pic im comparing it to an aluminium frame cause of the size of the tubes or something.

naked as the day she was spawned...which happened to be this evening

stiffest frame iv ever made by a fair margin even without a welded seatstay bridge. 25mm 7005 T6 pivot axle flipchips truly enormous chainstays 46mm cdv6 steel downtube 1.5 headtube...this beast is made for war.

Ok guys, I'm looking at the shimano high direct mount derailleur standard and can't believe how ugly it is when you aren't running a derailleur. There are advantages to using this standard as it gets the der out of the way of pivots and such and there are also some chain guides that utilize this standard but there has to be a cleaner way to do it!

I've seen the paragon machine works "round" mounts but it still isn't elegant. Have you guys come up with anything pretty? A 1" square doesn't belong on a modern bike!
