If I had the money believe me I would buy one of your Ti DJ frames. Id so much rather support builders themselves...

madm3chanic (Apr 19, 2010 at 4:36)

well they only gonna be like 6 or 700, not really that huge

Simulation93 (Apr 19, 2010 at 6:42)

oh wow i would have expected more...thats an awesome deal actually i think if i bought one off you it would be the cromo one...

madm3chanic (Apr 19, 2010 at 18:42)

yeah, its an estimate that sorta depends on how much the dropouts and C/S bridges cost the be waterjet cut and machined, but it'll be worth it cause the Ti ones'l be like 2.5lb...well thats what im aimin at anyway.

Simulation93 (Apr 19, 2010 at 18:52)

2.5lbs....damnn

good luck man ......defenatly wanna c the final product !!

yo13bo (Apr 19, 2010 at 22:18)

hmm, well i do want to design an am/fr bike once i have some money...

2.5lbs? thats crazy man my tyres alone almost weigh that much

madm3chanic (Apr 20, 2010 at 3:48)

hehe told ya i was makin a lighter uuberlite!

yo13bo (Apr 20, 2010 at 20:37)

yeah but i didnt expect it to be this light! :O

madm3chanic (Apr 21, 2010 at 4:05)

its only like 400g lighter than yours...you can make your ride that much lighter by having a big poo before you ride

yo13bo (Apr 21, 2010 at 4:15)

haha lol. nah new fork should do it on mine. it weighs quite a bit. but i do eat a lot.....

madm3chanic (Apr 21, 2010 at 4:19)

peeps will probly neg prop me for this, but i personally like the old XC judy's for DJ! they weigh fuk all, have really low standover hieght and adjust down to 80mm.

yo13bo (Apr 21, 2010 at 4:24)

yeah i guess if ur smooth it would work. im thinking fox 32 float in 15mm. or an f80

madm3chanic (Apr 21, 2010 at 4:28)

mmmm fox! nice, but you certainly pay for the quality!

yo13bo (Apr 21, 2010 at 4:47)

yeah paying out of my ass lol. oh well itll be worth it

turtlesauce2000 (Feb 16, 2011 at 2:42)

hey i have some old XC judys's... ive had the triple crown version aswell.

nouser (Feb 16, 2011 at 2:38)

Tried and tested?

2.5lb seems beyond sketchy...

turtlesauce2000 (Feb 16, 2011 at 2:41)

says you king of titanium?

nouser (Feb 16, 2011 at 2:42)

Indeed, thats why I would Jump to the opportunity of buying one of these, but only if i knew it would cope...

turtlesauce2000 (Feb 16, 2011 at 2:43)

but what about the cap?... well dan athertons 4x bike... proof that a Ti DJ is a good idea

nouser (Feb 16, 2011 at 2:45)

I work for the future...if I could, I would.

vikoszekely (Apr 19, 2010 at 3:18)

madm3chanic (Apr 19, 2010 at 3:55)
