beastnut will be released soon

got any hints?
What are the Calibre bike plans for 2018?
I don't have an idea. A competitor to the Boardman FS Pro maybe? Bike with a pricetag around 1.5 k?

others: happy with your Bossnut V2? In my opinion a blast. This thing really wants to make me bike more.
Somewhere here in the forum it was mentioned that you get very fast answers - in the case of any trouble - from Calibre directly when contacting them via Facebook.
But hope you don't have trouble!

From their Facebook page. I'm more than happy with my Bossnut at the price I paid

March saw the release of our limited edition Beastnut bike. 250 bikes made their way across the world to the lucky few but to those who missed out, don't worry, we'll have a similarly spec'd bike ready for release in the coming months.

As £1k-ish full suspension bikes go, I'm really pleased with my kona precept 130, the only changes is a years abuse have been bigger discs (to cure overheating on the local off-piste downhill), and a dropper post which there is internal routing for.

If I was buying right now though, Tiso in Perth have a trek ex5 for £1100 which looks an absolute bargain to me.

O.k.. Understand. But think this is ages old. This bike was available in limited numbers BEFORE the Bossnut V2 was released.
A bit as "teaser" for the Bossnut V2 version.
😉
The teaser bike Beastnut spec was a bit higher end than the V2. Longer travel and others.

think this is the V2.
The bike we actually have.
That's how I understood it.
But maybe I'am wrong.

Mmmmhhh.
Sounds convincing now...
You are right.
Maybe a 1.4 k or 1.5 k bike?

That's interesting indeed.

Looks like calibre are stepping it up.

Wonder how long it'll be before they start expanding the range a bit more...

Really like what Calibre Bikes is doing. Fine tuning the Bossnut and adding a "high end" Beastnut-type bike. Very smart!!!

I love "low budget" mountain biking and have older hardtails and an Bossnut V2 - and I ordered a 150/150 27.5+ full suspension frame (from an different brand) recently where I try to get the bits and pieces in all kind of "sales". Means beside the 130/130 Bossnut I have soon a 150/150 bike available.

Only possible: due to companies like Calibre Bikes and similar. They really work hard to keep mountain biking as "low cost" as possible. Great for us!

I love my Bossnut V2.

Those new Voodoos have tubeless ready rims now. The new canzo rides really well. The geo has been tweaked on all the Voodoos to be 'long, 'low' and 'slack'. They definitely ride better.

New boardmans out in the next couple of months.

Just seen that the V2 has dropped by £100, presumably to clear stock for the Evo
