[#7265120]

Been wanting one of these for a long time ever since bromley bikes were selling them off cheap.

Does anyone have the newer MK12 model and what are your thoughts? Ive had a quick look and cant find the differences from the mk10 -> 12. Are there any significant differences between them?

Ive emailed bromley but they only have a medium and no plans to re-stock which is a shame as i need a large but ive found one available for bike discount.....Does anyone know of any other uk suppliers?

Thanks

There was someone on here offering Liteville test bikes.
The MK12 has adjustable chain stays for wheel size at the horst link pivot, direct mount front mech and rockshox shock.

There's a Mk11 frame + Syntace wheels bundle on bike-components for the price of a Mk12 frame, not sure if this qualifies as cheap, though.

I considered one but got an almost new Mk11 at a price that outweighed the potential benefits. There are some minor geo tweeks and a direct front mech as stated above. The main difference is that you can now run either odd size wheels (traditional with Liteville) or the same size wheels front and rear without changing the geometry and BB height, simply by moving the boilt position on the rear pivot. Loads of info on the Liteville website.

That MK11 frame with the syntace wheels is a bargain - less than £1600 for a frame & wheels of this calibre

I see that they also have a XS MK10 for £700 which is the bargain of the century

I've been running a MK10 for over 3 years and still absolutely love it

Just changed the first set of bearings - not bad considering the way i ride 🙂
