Will have some pics pretty soon. WTB B+ wheelset, QR spec with convertable hubs, Deore 1x10 inc brakes, crmo foks inc a few extra bottle mounts than before, geo is a tad slacker and longer but will still feel good to ride loaded up, uses a clamp-shell EBB for height adjust or SSing. £800 RRP.

Thanks for the update. Sounds ideal to me, like the versatility and seems like great value too, esp when compared to complete longitude. Look forward to the pics!

The Arkose 2 was the one with bar end shifters and hydraulic brakes - I have one

I'd love a steel Arkose but unlikely I'll be changing this for now. It's probably only 8 months old!

Jameso,

Any update on the new Ramin Frames? I've pretty much worn thru the NDS chainstay using 2.3 Purgatories and I love the ride-would rather keep the Ramin going for now, rather than have a garage full of 29er bits I can't use if I buy the Iroko......

Actually that's a slight exaggeration, but I've scribed a noticeable groove in the chainstay....

Anything in the pipe line from Pinnacle that resembles a lightish xc bike, not too steep HA, doesn't break the bank? 😀

Sorry, missed this the last few times it's had bumps. The 1 (same spec, now just B+ compatible), 2, 3+ (the B+ bike with EBB, 1x10 Deore) and the 4 (SLX 10s, 120mm Reba) are all in the pipeline but logistics delay in getting them in, will need to check for updates next week.

What colours it come in ?
The 3+ is a flat dark/bold orange. Same as the current Lithium 4, looks good with big tyres and black kit/decals.

Thanks. Are they QR or 142 rears?

QR on all. Iroko 2-4s are 142 but Ramins are staying QR for now.

Jameso - Range is sounding good, will there be a Ramin b+ compatible frame only option available at some point? Having a b+ compatible ramin 1 sounds great idea...
