absolute fail by the constructor for this cost, lots of those frames are f*cked up

Should make an album of broken 951s

You broke a 951. Congrats. How did you manage to do that!?

I'm with everyone else, a bike this nice should ride till it's worn through several suspension rebuilds and bearing sets untill it's obsolete, and THEN need to be replaced.

do you not think they should fill old kona's, some trek session and all intense 951's with candy?

Russell1994 (Aug 25, 2011 at 12:39)

I think they should fill them with enough money to buy a new one!!!

I'm pretty sure it's not meant to do that...

...Bites the dust.

Well, I am sure they made this section a bit stronger in the 2011 frame. But, I havent seen a frame that cracked just from riding, not crashing.

engineering defect, didn't snap on the welds, but rather in the tubing. Unless they forgot to heat treat it. lol

I've seen about three examples of exactly this. They really should fix it. Unless they have???

cyberhawk (Dec 24, 2010 at 2:19)

i heard they are not making FRO frames anymore..

Sysics (Dec 25, 2010 at 14:14)

The 2011 LOOKS LIKE they just made the VPP stronger but dunno...

bikerboyz113 (Dec 25, 2010 at 21:47)

at least the 40s didnt snap

idrisz-96 (Jan 2, 2011 at 20:10)

Arawn (Dec 27, 2010 at 9:29)

pokalface (Mar 5, 2011 at 2:10)

DavidFRBraga (Dec 23, 2010 at 3:44)
