[Closed] New DMR Trailstar - anyone have one?

Don't have one, but seem to recall a 150mm headtube on all sizes.

Edit: Just looked on crc and found that someone had asked the same question, receiving the same rely, so 150mm it is.

I saw that on CRC, but I'm not sure it's correct. If you look at photos of the different sizes frames the head tube defo looks longer on the bigger sizes.

Indeed it does, I would say the small model looks a bit short for 150, but the xl looks about right..
A bit of on screen measuring has the small at 115 and the bigger ones at 150mm, but it's not the best technique.

You would think that they would just, you know, write it down in the geometry chart like all the rest!

Yes, that would be really useful!
I think a 150mm head tube would be touch and go. The bike they're on currently has a 115mm head tube and 30mm of spacers. So might just fit!

Phone upgrade. Always very helpful ime.

So the frame turned up, and it turns out the XL has a 145mm headtube.
My steerer is [i]just[/i] long enough!
Current stem has a stack height of 35mm, but I've bought one from the classifieds with a 30mm height - DMR too, so it matches 😀

Why couldn't they just list the HT heights on the geometry chart!

Looking forward to building it up now, the frame looks lovely.

Proper bargain too - there's a tiny paint blemish on the down tube, so they'd knocked £175 off.

Excellent discount, that! Which colour did you go for?

Upgrade often do have some really good discounts on ex-demo, blemished/marked, and NOS stuff.

This one was on ebay rather than their website though, so I ended up buying it quickly before it went. Luckily I don't need to buy new forks!

They've got another on their site for £375 (a large in black) which I nearly went for before I saw the Ebay one.
