Just found out that Brodie are looking at re-vamping their FS line up. They have not bothered with FS for a few years, having concentrated on road/touring and HT stuff, getting back to their routes so to speak.

Might look like a shameless plug, but I don’t even think they will make it in to the UK anyway! Just wanted to share 🙂

New Brodie FS frames/bikes

SHameless plug?

From you, the 13th Duke of Wimborn?

With your reputation?

Lol, thought I could count on you Al! Did you not read the part about the bikes not actually coming over here? Hence why I didn’t link to my website. Some on here really need to lighten up 🙂

I was kidding fella!

Any excuse for some Fast Show!

Any details si? Is that a dw link?

Where has your website gone Si ?

You should make some stickers advertising these…. 😉

DrP

stickers, now there’s a thought…. 🙂

Progressive website is down for the time being, should be back by the end of the week latest.

No details on the frames, very early proto work so to early to say what the specs are etc. I doubt that they will be available as frame only, which prob means I won’t be bringing them over, unless they are specced well enough and a decent enough price for the full bike.

Brodie are quite reasonably priced in Canada, so a DW bike could be a great option. There aren’t many off-the-peg full bikes available with DW.

No mention of DW or mention of Brodie on the DW page though, which is weird.

I don’t know if that is a DW Link? It is not like the original DW bikes of Iron Horse and Turner where there are linkage plates and the shock is vertical but it does look sililar ish to the current Pivot bikes which i think are DW as well. Very confused now 😕

Clearly a DW design is it not?

The second one and the end one look like Stumpys because of the top link and where the shock is.

I don’t honestly know, it looks similar but I would be surprised to see Brodie use the DW license.

I don’t know what defines a DW design but it’s def a rear-triangle on 2 links, a la DW, VPP, Maestro etc.
