That is an odd place to crack, not right on the weld and on side of tube?

Pipe cracked in a circle and crack passes through welding.

that's the real question

But when a frame breaks because you cased the f*ck out of a gap it's because it's shitty

Too big of chain ring? I'm rocking 36:15, plenty of chain wrap for long life.

Thanks! I’m running 34/13. It allows for a decent amount of power off of one or two cranks.

@newf bikes looking sweet dude, black fork looks mint.

@cjc515 Really diggin the sand frame, feeling some buyers remorse over here for not going with that color. What fork are you running? After logging some miles on my void w/ a DJ1 I am feeling really tempted to lower it to 80mm.

I know its been beaten to death but what are everyone's preference 80mm or 100mm for the guys riding suspension forks? I ride a good mix of dirt jumps, street, park and pump track. I really see no benefit to 100mm of travel. My old 2010 p1 had a 80mm dj3 on it and it just seemed perfect. Not to mention the old dj3 feels better than my new dj1 all day.

I like my frame at 80mm, previously I had it at 100mm but it felt a bit slack, the zircus is slacker too than void I think
