[Closed] Brodie Holeshot Titanium.

Sorry to drag this back to the top, but i have just recived a bit of info about the new Ti Holeshot, looks to be a great frame and available to pre order (with Progressive Bikes!) in the next few weeks! Based around a 6" fork with a nice long TT and slack HA looks to have well sorted geo for a classic UK long travel hard tail.

The Brodie 2008-2010 Cruzado XC Ti frame was a real work of art and little known over here, but the few that did buy the frame were really impressed with the quality of workmanship and Ti tube set used.

There will also be a Cyclo cross and road Ti frame.

Lets hope no one tells Mike.

Why would that be? If it's because it looks like the Dialled bikes frames, i think i have seen many bikes over the years with a seat brace, made of Ti and capabable of using long forks, no? 🙂

what is holeshot?

and is it hole-shot, or holes-hot?

/numpty question

that looks nice

Holeshot is the name of a bike that Brodie Bikes have been making for a many a year (at least 2003).

How much out of interset Si?

Holeshot is getting into the first corner in first place in a 4x/bmx race, isn't it?

It's also the name of a bike made by Dialled Bikes.

Yes, price pleasee Si. And if possible some measurements.

yeas, which is why I think it's a strange name for a long-forked, slack frame....

Dialled's frame is more appropriately named

I was kidding Si.

Isn't "holeshot" the feeling after a particularly long ride?

ahh cynic, as in "my arse hole is shot, need a better saddle"

or a supple Ti frame, therefore we actually have a new bike that fills a need 😉

Isn't "holeshot" the feeling after a particularly long ride?

That is certainly how mine feels 🙂

Yet to see exact geo, but will do very soon along with a price. If anyone is really interested drop me an email as there won't be too many available.

I now have geo details for anyone interested.

Stock is due to lane in Canada any day now, as soon as its landed i'll have a price (hoping for around £1k)

Yumyum

Holeshot is just getting off the line first in any form of head to head race, especially in 1/4mile drag racing

Just had word from Canada that my stock is due to arrive very soon. Price will be a very reasonable £1299, get your pre orders in!

Does look sweet but 500 quid more than the new 456 ti....

£1299

Si can you email me details gungun24 @ hotmail com

That is very nice Si, Send me the demo bike in large 🙂

ian, ygm.

Sam, show me the money! 😉

Si,

Ah money...Theres a problem. 🙄

what sizes does it come in?

Sizes are 16" Small, 17" Medium, 18" Large, 19" XL. The TT are quite long just to make you aware 🙂

I currently only have 4 of each size available and lots of interest in the 17 and 18" sizes.

That's really nice, I may have to get another lottery ticket!

Details now on my web site for the Ti Holeshot for anyone interested 🙂

Si

do you do the bike to work scheme?

Freeridenick, I don't do the scheme, at the moment anyways.

So Si, what sort of size would I be wanting if I were to have one of these then? I'm just over 5'10" and would want something for woodsy type riding, say 2-3 hours with more emphasis on playing than all day trail riding.

Hmmmmm.

Do you need it to be flickable?

I widh this thread would DIE.
I'd never use it enough and it would be a waste. I have more important things to spend money on.
It's just so pretty. AARRRGGGHH.

Think of the resale.

Turmoil TURMOIL I TELLS YA

Either the 17" or 18" depending on which TT length you prefer, though i think the 17" would be about right as they have pretty long top tubes.

Not just a ploy, but i don't have many of these frames left and the next batch may be a while off yet.

geetee, you'd want a 17. i, on the other hand, would like an 18. 🙁

teaser piccies of the 18" with the Hope semi-integrated cups installed...

its my 39th birthday next week and my major work project for the last four years (a new Academy) has just opened successfully, so a little treat was due in these crappy times...

build is going to take a while though, as CRC have messed me around on delivery of the 2011 revelation dual position air fork and **** knows when the reverb will be available (probably xmas time) so a thomson will be used instead

That is a beauty! Wish I hadn't seen it 😛

They look even nicer in the flesh!

Not many left now, 1 17", 1 18" and a couple of 16" and 19".

paul, if you need a fork let me know. I can get Fox, Rockshox and Thomson posts if needed 🙂

Managed to keep one for myself! Ideal winter bike 😉

Going to build it up next week. Will post some pics when I'm done.

Ti frames are great for winter, easy to clean.

Here's the 16" for us shortarses

That small is perfectly formed 🙂 Trouble is my wife thought so too and was dropping a few hints.
