Can anyone tell me if the froggy has a maxle rear axle? From pics it looks like normal quick release.
If it is quick release I would be very suprised and a bit disappointed. Currently looking at this and a driver 8 but can't make my mind up.

this help? looks like that carbon thingi stops terrible things happening 😉

Rear axle is 10mm qr

you could always convert your hub to 10mm bolt through (I have on my zesty and nomad)

IMO the driver 8 is going to be a better frame, but it costs £2400 versus £1700 for the froggy, but they are aimed at different riders, froggy frameset comes with an air shock, driver 8 coil, driver 8 has 150mm rear spacing and a maxle, froggy has front mech, driver can't take one etc. etc.

you pays yer money.....

i thought froggys had an optional coil shock?
