Just bought an old orange BFe and wanted to check whilst i'm waiting for it to turn up that my forks are going to fit (bit late now). I've bought a medium and was wondering if it was a 110mm headtube like my Soul is?
any help would be much appreciated,
many thanks,
Steve

Geometry is identical between Soul & BFE I believe. (for a given fork length)

Orange BFe is a very rare beastie. Think there are only 5 of them. I've got one of the 2 smalls!

I can check when I get home as I also have a medium BFe in orange (gloat)! I believe it is 110mm though.

Actually I think there were 5 smalls and 5 mediums made.

Why don't you ask the guy you bought it from? He is an STW member.

Cheers everyone so far, pleased to have a rare orange one!
peteimpreza - i know davidtaylforth is a member on here, only just thought to check and he's already posted the frame so thought i'd ask on the forum.
crocodilian - that would be great if you could check yours for me, cheers.

Steve, its on the geometry table on the cotic site, i cant be bothered looking (poor customer service I admit), but im 99% certain its a 110mm head tube.

I have checked the geometry table cheers mate but it's for the newer one so i wasn't sure if it was the same or not. Fingers crossed it is.
Cheers again.
