Damn it. This ticks pretty much all of the boxes on my next bike list.

Big dog ticked a lot of them, but this has even more.

Can’t see a frame only option for these yet but presumably they’ll end up at the cheap end and I think would make a great all rounder.

They'll charge £800 initially, then £400, then £700, then £150, then £600, etc. etc.

quite enjoy the Inbred-referencing seat stays.

(and yeah, the Rojo is clearly the Other New Steel Frame that will launch around this; grav/utility frame aimed at drop bars)

When the knock the frame out for under 200 quid... and they will... I might buy one.

They might but I wouldn't hold your breath - Probably costs more than that to powder coat at current energy prices.

A bit like a budget karate monkey. Probably weigh the same (read: a lot).

I've been looking at karate monkey frames for a basic SS build using a set of 27.5 3" wheels I already have, this new frame (with a 130mm suspension corrected fork) would fill that hole nicely, I'd only need a few bits to build a full bike.

Of course, I don't have the space for another bike, but that's just a technicality...

It’s as good as done then 😂. Look forward to the nbd thread!

You can’t put it in the sale unless you are selling it at full rrp

Lol, On One have launched brand new products directly into "the sale". Nobody cares any more unless you're a big company doing it on tv

Anyone picked one up yet or are we all waiting for the frame only option?

I am waiting for the frame only option, unless they start supplying Shimano builds.

Saw you can order them for delivery in a few days.

I don't entirely understand though - this is supposed to be a do anything bike but it doesn't have e.g. rack mounts like the big dog does? Isn't that a bit odd?
Or is it do anything in the it'll run single speed sense?
Or is it the homage to Cotic in the seat stay to seattube connection?

Isn't it more of a homage to the original Inbred that was one to the Dekerf bikes?

I asked that too (there was a mix up so I had a god hour drinking tea and talking bikes with Dave), apparently they got burnt by the 456evo and Codeine 29er. The 456evo was their own mould (expensive) and coincided with the customers deciding that 26″ was infact actually dead. Similarly the codeine 29er was almost 50mm shorter reach and steeper than all it’s competitors.

That would have been a harsh one for a smallish company.... time might be right for it now though, things seem to have stabilised a bit. a Carbon 29er with a UDH and modern geo would sell well, I'd think.

Bet a lot of companies got burned like that - Turner coming out with a carbon 27.5 RFX with 430 reach in a large in 2016 comes to mind

I like it. Would make a great bike for someone who only has enough room or money to have one mountain bike.

Singlespeed for the winter.

Geared and fast tyres for bike packing, longer xc rides.

Geared and bigger tyres for proper off road rides

I'd have been in the market for one of these ten years ago when the kids were young and I was piss poor. I now have a few bikes for different types of riding, so I'll be sticking with my Hello Dave.

Isn’t it more of a homage to the original Inbred that was one to the Dekerf bikes?

They were straight sections welded at an angle, weren't they? The first one I remember with the curved seatstays joined by a single extension to the seattrube was the Cotic.

Still, not sure how it's more of a do anything than the big dog, given the latter has rackmounts but the former doesn't.

No idea tbh. I was just basing it on the Planet X blurb

The On-One Wrekker is the older sibling of our most aggressive mountain bike, the Hello Dave. It keeps the same radical principles as the Dave but goes premium by utilising Aerospace Grade 9 3AL-2.5V Titanium

Huntsman definitely has Dekerf/inbred stays

The first one I remember with the curved seatstays joined by a single extension to the seattrube was the Cotic.

Wishbone stays like that have been around since, well forever, or at least as long as bikes.

Cheers, Tinas. Where did you find that pic? The images I'd seen I couldn't tell which style they were and I thought they were the curved style from the best one I found.

Welds look tidier than a lot of the px bikes I've seen.

Anyone got/ridden one yet?

Currently £850 in their sale. Which, aside from the Judy fork, seems a stonking deal. I'm still waiting for a frame-only option to become available ...

I haven’t ridden one but Guy Kesteven has just published a video in which he rides one:

Sounds pretty good.

Has he ever ridden an on one that doesn't sound amazing?

That is a very fair question! The only real criticism he makes is that the back end is a bit harsh. He says that although Planet X funds the videos that doesn’t affect his reviews, but who knows.

£700 (+ postage) in sale today. I’d been waiting for a frame only price but think that’s a decent price to buy the whole bike and sell the parts not needed.
