BMC Twostroke AL

€400 EUR
Hi. Selling new alloy BMC Twostroke frame - never built. Size S (160-170cm), boost (12x148), for 29'' wheels. Frame was stripped when new and then sent to be powder coated. Before powder coating, they assured me that they know what they are doing, that its not their first time powder coating a bike frame. Pictures clearly suggest otherwise. There are two spots (top tube and left seatstay) where the colour didn't completely cover the primer so there are dark dots seen from primer. Also, the finish on a few areas isn't really good - everything can be seen on pictures. Because the bike was meant to be a surprise as a present, I decided to order a new frame. I don't want to strip this frame again, due to nature of the powder coat being much more durable than normal paint. This is great for riding, not so much for stripping. As I don't want to damage the frame, I decided to sell it as it is. It is not cosmetically perfect but it is a good quality alloy frame, complitely functional. If the cosmetics don't bother you, you can get yourself a good frame for a good money. Price listed is for everything as seen on the pictures; frame, rear axle, headset, 100mm fork with axle, stem and handlebars, seat clamp, seat post and seat. Would like to sell as a set. On request, I can also build a full bike with desired components. Work in a bike shop as a mechanic so I have access to bike boxes and protection - shipping is not a problem.

@edfw: pedaling backwards with crank stationary is the same as cranks being stationary and chainring moving forward not backward. Unless you would pedal backward, the front chainring simply can not move backward. Its simple, if the chainring could move backwards, you couldn't pedal at all

@edfw: Do you pedal backwards when going downhill?

@ViralBikes: Look. The front chainring with belt rotating backward is exactly the same as chainring being stationary and cranks rotating forward, just different component is stationar, but the direction is the same. How would belt rotating backward be different than pushing on the pedals (crank rotating forward)....cranks would just spin and spin freely and you couldn't pedal.

@ViralBikes: if it is like a normal freehub in the back wheel, then it would depend where in the "play" would you be in the moment of the impact on the suspension. It could be more or less amount until the "freehub" engages and if it would already be close to engaging, the pedal kickback could still occur...?
