14" frames (effective top tube mainly) - especially the Blue Pig & Piglet?
572mm (22.5in) on the Blue Pig
588mm (23.1in) on the Piglet
Interesting, I wasn't expecting this as the on-one 456 jumps from 21.5" ett for the 14" to 23" for the 16".
I'm 5'7" but prefer a slightly smaller bike, hopefully the 14" blue pig will be perfect because I feel the current 16" blue pig is probably a bit big for me.
we're in the dark here, come on, give us some new info. How's the piglet Ti prototype like? Sizing? I suppose it would be best to get one size up against the BPig.
How do you expect people to place 2011 pre-orders??? :-p
Is it just me who wants to shake their fist disagreeably at whoever decided to discontinue the mmmbop?
You should have bought one while they were half price then 
Sorry for the thread bump but is there any more news on the Ti Piglet?
my 16" golden delicious piglet frame will be arriving today 
pics later
I exchanged emails with Brant yesterday and the Ti Piglet is being shipped from Lynskey mid June and will be in the UK at the beggining of July - Can't wait!!!

Once you have it built, it would be good to have some ride feedback?
Definitely - will do.
I'm going to run it singlespeed and build it with:
120mm Sid XX forks(15mm bolt though)
Hope Pro3's with stans
Answer Pro Taper 720 bars
70mm Answer AM stem
Thomson Elite inline post
XTR chainset (just 32 ring)
Gobi XM saddle
Hope Race X2 breaks
Chris King headset
piglet will have his headset fitted tomorrow, then built up ready for my burfdy on thursday.
nothing flash, all donor parts from the retiring rock lobster
lx and slx drivetrain, xt 160/180 brakes, revelation 426s at 130mm, ragley seatpost, sdg saddle, easton 75mm stem and 710mm bars, v12s, some wheels of some kind and kenda nevegals
liking it so far tho, frame detailing is good and impressed by the bolt on hose guides, very neat idea. gonna be tricky deciding where to put all the stickers
oh and if you were wondering how green golden delicious green is? very. kermit the frog green. really nice
alcohol permitting there will be a full report next thursday pm
and more pics as i build it up if i remember
Here's my 16" Piglet. Marzochhi 44 Micro Ti forks set to 130mm, 1x10 SLX drivetrain with MRP chain device, Crank Brothers Cobalt wheels, Continental Black Chilli Rubber Queen front and Mountain King rear, SLX brakes, Gravity 777mm bars, Nukeproof 50mm stem, Gravity Dropper, Ragley Saddle, DMR Vault pedals
that piglet looks blinkin fab.
insanely wide bars! :O
Ed that is nice
looking forward to getting it built up, will it be as much fun as it looks?
first ride this morning and have to say this is a bloody brilliant bike
i'm 5.11 but with a long back, or short legs according to the wife. got a 16" frame and it fits like a glove. nicely stretched out, slackish head angle so feels very stable downhill, which i thought it would, but it also climbs like crazy.
front end is nice and stiff, thanks to the gusset. loads of mud room, at the back. feels pretty comfy too. with the steeper seat angle feels like i'm sitting in the bike, right in the middle, very confidence inspiring.
its really flickable and just downright FUN to ride. was making motorbike noises in my head the whole way round, braaap
if you're even remotely tempted just buy one. superb
spec is unremarkable but works:
RockShox Revelation 426 forks at 130mm
LX gears
XT 180/160mm discs
Easton Vice 711mm bar
Easton 75mm stem
Ragley Spike seatpost
SDG Bel Air Ti saddle
v12 knock offs
Kenda Nevegals 2.35 and 2.1
and these cable/hose guide thingies are fantastic, makes for a really neat build, and quiet too, no cables slapping around
I have to say that the Piglet looks like a great frame
good to see such a large range of sizes. So many of these frame only deals are in a very limited range of sizes
Is the non drive side rear drop out cowled like the drive side, want to use my kiddie trailer which neds the area around the drop out to be flat around the QR area. Photo of the area would be appreciated.
Cheers
Cowled the same yes.
Can you post some pictures of the rear tire clearance as I'm trying to see if will clear 2.3" 650b tires. Thanks

Tyre clearance is the same as the Blue Pig, which 650B x 2.3's fitted, apparently, so yes.
