Something a little different..
Thanks to my new sponsors at Kingdom bikes ive now been given this nice new frame and helmet.
Watch their website for some blog entries.
Its ti with a nice TT length and slack angles. Super light but feels damn stiff.

Will be running anything with adjustable travel (120-160mm) just need to find it- thinking lyrics.
Ive worked out that it should sit at 25lbs. Which would be a dream! I’ll update it soon as.
My steel AM bike will be the donor and I need to sell the frame to fund uni (still, grrr).

So spec is:
hope hoops
XT cranks and brakes
XTR mech & shifter
Havoc stem and v1 bars
charge spoon saddle
Gamut p30
HT pedals

Need to get:
dropper post
forks

that frame 😯 😀 i like it 😉

Bit eye bleachey that 😯
After looking at the site…I’m puzzled/intrigued/confused.
TBH it all seems a bit ‘style over substance’ to me.Lots of fashionable ‘must have’ features and styling but little else really.They are obviously a design ‘house’ who then gets them manufactured in china (looking at the quality) but then charge Lynskey type money.
Dubious I am….and for that reason,’I’m out’

I hope it rides well coz it ain’t no looker 😛

Should have made it more like this eye candy…

They’re made by xacd aren’t they?

Those downtubes are just wrong in my eyes though.

More fun doing it yourself

I like the style of the downtube if it was on a cruiser type bike. Does the curve add any strength?

I take it your home for Christmas, no way that’s a Uni kitchen. Well
Done for getting sponsored looking forward to seeing it built up.

Mmmmmmm. Biscuits.

Its certainly a marmite frame! I like it because its unique. You never see a S shaped DT on HTs because there’s no advantage to having it. I know i’ll be one of the very few riding this on the mountain. Half built now. Waiting on some cash for the last few bits.

Finish is superb on the welds. Very neat! Will get a close up at some point.

Bent downtube makes it look like its been ridden into a wall.Oh well thats fashion for you.

What are they sponsoring you to do on it then?
