We do have an alloy disc big clearance, rack and guard road bike coming in the next couple of months btw...
interested to here more about this (if there is anything more), the comment is from the thread titled "Ti Pickenflick"
It's called "London Road". Originally after London Road, but now after London Road. Not a road in London.
Ah cheers. Might as well fire off some questions 😆
Is it a Planet X branded bike? and will it be available with and without forks?
Presumably its going to come in lighter than the Kaffenback
It's a Planet X model.
Frameset with forks
Cx clearances.
Lighter than Kaffenback.
Any idea on RRP? Actual or target.
When is it due? 🙂
yes would be interested to know a vague price or actual of course 😆
I wonder if it will fit a normal compact chainset with wider tyres?
I'm looking forward to seeing this one.
Wasn't there a 'Kaffenback Trail' alluded to on these pages a while back?
Early July. £699 with Tiagra.
No Kaffenback Trail.

No Kaffenback Trail.
Ah cool
Will watch with interest to see what approx weight comes in at...
Is this essentially an Uncle John replacement?
No. As it's more road based than CX.
And has discs.
Will it have a carbon fork that will be disc ready and have mudguard mounts? My UJ frame is disc ready but the fork isn't, and I'm finding it difficult to find a fork that will take both discs and mudguards, oh and if the answer to the above is yes is there any chance the fork will be available separately? Thanks.

Yes, and no (currently).
what's the geometry going to be like in comparison to something like a kaffenback/pompino?
Well, kind of similar. Longer back end than the Kaffenback.
IHN - thanks for that, will look into possibly getting one when and if i decide to go disc on the crosser.
Any more news ? 🙂
Forks delayed. Eta end of July.
Is it available frame only?

probably not available frame only going by this earlier post...

Any chance it can have a lovely bright paint job (helps with not getting squashed in winter) all the cheapish winter roadies I look at seem to come in various shades of 'runmeover black' or 'didn'tseeyouthere brown'
This is relevant to my interests. Shame the Ragley Cragg Vale wasn't disc, I'd rather one of those than a PX.
Hey Brant,
are you allowed to give us any photos or actual geometry details? I have a tax rebate coming and will be requiring a bike-project to put a dent back into my savings.

Interesting to me too

My girlfriend is commuting on a sample from Hebden to Rochdale tomorrow.
Does that help?

This looks nice, however heard rumours of a pickenfluck with clearance for a road compact chainset and rack and guard mounts, is it true??

Pickenflick has been revised to take a road crank. But it's not had rack and guard mounts added as it's a cyclocross bike.
We'll be working on something else with those options.
We're also working on the most crazy xxx bike I've done in a while, which is just going to be a hoot.
any idea of revised pickenflick availability dates?
Yeah im waiting for this new version of the pickenflick, whens it looking like it will be ready??
bump, still desperately trying to hold out for this, amidst various other deals flying about
This is going to take a triple, isn't it?
