    Dunno my m8 bought a Ti chinese mtb frame and according to this place he should have died.. it’s working fine and he believe it to be as good as his Merlin Ti.

    I’ve got carbonzone front 50mm carbon racing wheel, cheap and a good bit of kit, in fact just ordered another for Mrs Kilo, so no reason to doubt they can’t make a mtb frame as well as road and TT – it’s not as if all the other carbon frames are being lovingly created in the UK. This sort of stuff has been covered a lot on bikeradar so may be more info there.
    Carbonzone are quick to deal with queiries and ship goods too.

    Is that a 71 degree headangle? crikey!

    Comes to almost £300 with postage, so I’d pony up the extra £120ish for an On One Whippet or 456 if it were me.

    It just looks like an On One, but loads nicer.

    My mate did. He tried telling everyone it was a prototype and he had it custom made to his specifications because he was going to start a bike company 😆 😆 😆

    if you do enough searching you will find all the companies that make UK niche brand frames. For example i have the contacts for the guys who make the Pipedream Ti Frames, they work out about £450 delivered.

    Who do you think make on ones carbon frames, the yanks?
