Please remove the chain stay protector from that beautiful frame, how much chain slap do you expect from a SS.

Looking good!

Hoping to build a 29er Scandal with the insurance payout from my stolen Inbred.

Can vouch for its awesomeness.

I felt truly awsome when swapped bikes for a quick spin, as opposed to feeling truly medoichre when on my own ride. It absolutely sprouts wings when pointed upwards, and as exceedingly quick handling when you hit the singletrack.

Drop me text if you are out tomoz. Will not be riding but will be dropping my kit bag off at Mammoth in readiness for the journey, so can pop to the Barley Mow to see Selma and partake of a beverage.

tazzymtb, if you're still thinking of selling the proto Scandal, can you let me know? Need a replacement for my stolen Inbred and that'd be ideal; been experimenting with a slack seat angle and love it.

He's only 4' 2" though Pete, he would have vertigo if he tried to ride it with the post at that height. ๐Ÿ˜€

Love it! How do you get your chain so short? I can never get mine like that and still get wheel in and out. Break the chain?

I want the Tazzy's one now!

it's going on to be borrowed for a week or two for someone who's dinky to see if they like big wheels and then I'm going to sell it

although I am missing the giant tyre clearance of the on-one when compared to my new toy so a pair of nobby nic 29er's may well be going with the frame as well ๐Ÿ˜ฅ

EDIT: no nobby nics now I'm bartering for other bits ๐Ÿ˜€ it would be available with a mirror polished hope headset, ti seat clamp mirror polisher chain tug and bits n bobs.

(it is on first refusal for someone at the moment at then it'll appear in the classifieds)

around 20lbs for a small scandal 29er with carbon bits and stans wheels is about right. Mine varied from under 20 with a carbon fork to about 22 lbs with boingy u turn forks and big old 2.25 nobby nics on

Looks fantastic, really loving the colour.

Is it me or do Scandals look very slack?
