16" Frame with most the bits scavenged from the garage. All I need is a seat clamp as i couldn't find one the right size anywhere.
seatpost is wrong way round mate. Looks very purple rather than pink in the pic whats it like in the flesh
just built this

Ah... Well spotted, it also has about 20 headset spacers!
It's definately more of a metallic purple or deep pink in the flesh, quite striking. It's what she wanted though 🙄
mmm i wanted a pink one not purple 🙁
hmm, i think you'd call that "Magenta" ??

mmm not sure if i want one now ;-(
Fuchsia frame 😉
Couple questions guys...
craig1975 - what size is yours?
Do they measure the sizing centre bb to top of seat tube?
Is a 456 SS the same effective top tube length as an 'original' 456?
cheers

First ride on Sunday over at Woburn and I love it. Definitely makes a hero out of a fool, even with 'only' 100mm forks on.
Still no photos of a brown one? Come on guys, I can't build mine up till Christmas. Need some inspiration!
so brown or purple mmmm ive got a brown karate monkey on its way so maybe purple is the way
btw this is my current set up on a 16 fits bob on but im thinking of a 18 this time as it looks a bit small lol fits great and rides great i just thinking i could get same set up on a bigger frame . i think ;-)275mm exposed post and 70mm stem 35mm spacers on the front

and yes the swap is purely a colour thing 😉
btw are the headtubes the same length on the 16 and 18 as i cant find any info on the site
Just found this brown one on BikeRadar:

Hmmm... am i manly enough to ride a 16" purple one?
and what would the wife think about that?

.5 of an inch different - did I not tell you where to find it on the site? 😡 😉
brown looks nice though that one's a bit gate-like.
mi©k - how tall are you? Is that where you run your seat when riding?
hi im five ten just about lol and yes thats where i ride it usually (well thats the best height for climbing) sometimes drop it for downs if i can be arsed
is that a 400mm seatpost then? and a 16 frame? Just trying to work it out for mine - im 5'8 maybe but have really short legs so I just got a 350mm seatpost but worrying it might not be enough. Ill measure my current pedal to saddle height tonight and then check it though sure it will be fine
its a 410 post mate i had a 350 and it was too short should be ok for you tho id guess mine as only about 5mm over full extension but i went for bigger is always better option 😉
ok cool! I have short legs anyway as the mrs likes to wind me up about! justwish I had time before Friday to build it up but then I would have to sacrifice my night ride tonight or thursday
its only a ride and it will make the ride on the new one so much sweeter 😉 what colour was it you got mate
The blue in the end - was undecided between blue and brown (im not good enough to justify pink 😉 ) In the end no more browns left so that made my decision easy!
should have got my blue one lol im no good but look good in pink 😉
Actually its the first time I have got a new frame have always brought second hand before. Luckily it coincided with the anniversary so the mrs brought it for me (she got some hair straighteners) good deal in my opinion!
dunno about that mate ive seen the price of some of those straightners lol enjoy 😉 ive a buyer lined up for my frame just waiting to hear back so i can click on a pink one 😉 still dunno tho about 16 or 18 tho
Mick - Sorry for the late reply. I'm bob on in the middle of the range for an 18inch by the look of things. 6ft, and 32inch inside leg. Have ridden a 16inch frame and while it was fun for chucking around, it was a bit too wee for anything longer than a couple of hours blast.
no worries captain im bang on between sizes too lol damn my little legs lol
Prefer last years SS to be honest..... here is mine....
[img] 
[/img]
Is this years frame the same just different paint?
Bosh,
No this year you don't have to put your own anti chainsuch dent into the chainstay. There are also ISCG mounts and of course - paint! I've single speeded last years model which I rode for the 1st time tonight. Your front brake hose looks too short BTW!
mine is the new chainstay model i do prefer the old graphics tho
[img] 
[/img]
What's the ss like. How does it compare to the normal 456 and what size fork is on that.?
God damn it they are ugly...
Mine has the flattened chainstay.... No lumphammer work needed!
That front hose does look short! It's the camera angle as I have longer forks now and still have plenty of slack.
robbo1234biking - MemberMine has arrived! Wont get to build up until next week as at the in laws this weekend but looks great! Will post up pics of the build once it is done. Will be my first ever new frame - Ive always got second hand before
Have you built yours up yet mate?
No not yet - have got Friday off work so will do it then. Wanted to get it built up sooner but just havnt had the time! Should be some pics going up on Fri
Arrived last week, just built up for the missus, 14" Barry White. She can have some gears when she's a good girl.
The seats low cos she's a absolute beginer, The steerer isn't cut in case she bails and I can use the forks on something else, and I know the front brake hose is waaaaaay to long, but I'll get round to it 🙂

That's really nice - good work 🙂
Smuzzy that Barry White is class! I'm going to be running singlespeed like yours, is that an on one doofer - does it work/fit ok?
Yup, Doofer, seems to work real well, but only done 2 laps of the close.
Continuing the Barry White theme, here's one I finished tonight.

Bought the frame and forks after the forks failed on my Orange and since they had a 1" steerer, seemed easier to build a new bike using as much as possible from the P7. Now that I see her, I feel she needs either a black or a gold handlebar and a new saddle. And discs...
Minor gripe - impossible to get the back wheel off with the tyre inflated without removing one side of the brakes.

Loving watching the builds together. V happy with On-One. Ordered Saturday PM, arrived just before I set off for work this morning. Just wish I could afford to build it up before Xmas. Ah well. Makes a nice mantlepiece decoration until then.
