Just finished building my new On one 456, took it up to gisburn for its maiden voyage and everything was perfect apart from the on one seatclamp, in the picture on the website its a brass bush (little bit next to lever) so paid £15 for it, came with a plastic bit instead which disintegrated after half an hour of being lightly clamped, iv'e emailed them but ill not bother as i'd have to send it back. Anyway made a bush out of brass so it's fine now.
The frame itself is excellent ,very nimble and great on steep technical climbs so it made up for the crappy seatclamp. Got the ragley spike too which is very good, handy to have clear markings and it looks pretty good.

nice build I was thinking of getting that colour but went for the blue on instead 🙂 I have just built mine up with a mixture of shimano parts and fox 32 vans and love it !!!

Man thats so WRONG.

Non-matching brakes, two colours of steerer spacers and FLATS!

And your front 'fender' is the wrong way around, all the crap will collect on the back where you've joined it.

Lovely colour mate and you'll have heaps of fun on a 456.

Not sure about the saddle though, far to racy.

Looks great, I love that colour. Been thinking I'd like to build up an xc bike on a 456 if I could afford 2 bikes!

When pink isn't available, then you have to go for brown.
