I love my bike and intend on keeping it for a good while yet but recently I have been reading about this...
Looks nice, anyone else thinking the same?
Si... I know you will probably cherp in but I really want to hear from Chumba owners and people who like the look of this frame.
I've never had a test ride on a Chumba, How do they feel? Can you compare them to other bikes on the market?
Adjustable wheelbase and chainstay length via sliding dropouts... I like the idea but is it more to go wrong?
Just after peoples opinions really? Cheers
oooh i like
What tyres for Astroturf?
😉
eh??
does moonhead work for them then?
No No No! I own a 5 and love it.... all I want is your thoughts on a frame!!
Heh nice astroturf mate.
I'm a freelance photographer! I don't have any affiliation to any bike company. My website is
That is what I do!
This is a post to gain info and your opinions....I don't get what I have done wrong?
you haven't. i like the look and the idea of the adjustablity 🙂
must admit, looks smart to me - no idea about what the sus action would be like or whether slidey dropouts would change my life, though
Moonhead - it's OK. Just a wee joke at your expense 😀
Ahhh OK....don't mind a joke at my expense! 🙂
Sliding drop outs = Single speed for me,
But saying that, I prefer riding hardtails.
scaredypants- Thats just what I'm wondering.... to me slidey dropouts look like a cool idea but in reality would they really make that much difference?
no they wouldn't.
oh and nice spamming 😀
Moonhead is nowt to do with me or Progressive bikes 🙂
That bike looks really nice. Have adjustable dropouts on a sovereign, no practical issues to date.
Can't believe I started a tread and got so accused of spam and astroturf etc...both of which I had to google to find out what I did 'wrong'.
Si from progressivebikes, Thank you for confirming I have nothing to do with you guys.
Back on topic..... I do like that frame, coil shock, nice lines.... Would be nice to have a blast one one just to compare.
Welcome to the cynics favoutite hangout.Great looking bike i had a Chumba a couple of years ago and thought it was a gr8 bike.Much better than a lot of the cookie cutters made by other companies and made to last
