Built Not Bought: Freddie Thomson's Resume is Rideable, Not Readable
The parts weren't outrageous to be fair! I think all the CNC parts came to around £2,000. The supplier wasn't too pleased when they realised how intricate some of the features were, especially with the tolerances I wanted. To be fair to them though, they stuck to the quote and did a great job!

I used a company called XTJ TECH / CNC for all the CNC parts and sourced the tubes through Xincheng High-Performance Alloy Materials. Tubes were quite hard to source, especially with a supplier who could give me a legit batch material testing certificate.

Sep 13, 2026Whyte G-180 Works Medium
$1200 GBPHi, I’m selling my Whyte G-180 Works in a size medium. The frame was mostly helitaped from new, which I have now removed. There are some marks and areas of cosmetic wear in places where the frame wasn’t protected. I’ve touched up the worst of these areas, as shown in the photos. The bike has the general wear what'd you’d expect from a 3-year-old mountain bike. I’ve serviced and maintained it regularly throughout my ownership and replaced parts as required. For sale I’ve fitted new tyres, frame bearings and grips, so it’s ready to ride.

Frame: Whyte G-180 Medium (Brand new frame bearings fitted)
Forks: Rockshox ZEB 170mm (Brand new a couple of month ago)
Rear Shox: Ohlins TTX22 230x65mm with 457lbs spring
Wheels: DT Swiss EX511 rims on 350 hubs
Brakes: SRAM Code Sliver (New at start of year) with 200mm centreline rotors
Drivetrain: SRAM X01 Eagle 12 Speed
Dropper Post: OneUp V2 210mm (Some wear on stanchion as shown by photos)
Handlebars: Burgtec RideWide 30mm rise 760mm width 31.8
Stem: Burgtec Enduro MK3 50mm 31.8
Grips: TAG (Brand new)

Any questions let me know,
Best regards,
Freddie

Video: Frameworks Tests the Loctite DH Bike Prototype with Adjustable Kinematics
I've designing something similar for myself recently and I've had help from the guys from Loctite with choosing the epoxy adhesive to bond the joints. They suggested me to use LOCTITE® EA 9466 and seemed to suggest that its the same as other well known brands have used
