Do the new Prince Alberts have that triangle section at the front or is that on the old ones?
Also what colours do they come in? Suppose I could email them direct for this info but I might get some pretty pics here to look at.
Anyone got any info on the geometry, tyre clearance, seatpost size, weight etc etc - similar to on-one 456 maybe?
The Dialled site isnt very informative. Looks good though.
Only the older mkI and mkII come with the triangle bit at the front. Pretty sure new colours are grey or orange. Seatpost size 27.2. Geometry, very good, well suited to pikes. Tyre clearance, very good. Weight, over 5lb, probably very similar to 456.
You want this bit of the website:

the Mk 1 had the additional tube, the rest have additional gussets instead. not sure about what colours it is currently available in Dialled Mike will be able to answer if not someone else will know I'm sure
I doubt geometry h aschanged much over the years as it was right pretty much from the get-go. seatpost size is 27.2.
I had a mk1 one but upgraded it to a Morning Glory (same frame but Ti) they're cracking bikes and you won't be disappointed 🙂
Will probably just run it with recon uturns initially and move everything over from my boardman comp with some minor changes to stem etc. Create something a bit more hardcore than the boardman. I imagine it will be a fair bit hearier so will spoil my climbing but cant have everything.
the frames are around 5.5lbs, so its going to be a fair bit heavier than the Boardman frame at I should imagine thats going to be in the 4lb range.
Completely different type of bike/frame though, so its too be expected. Are your recons 130mm?
Mike is very helpful and quick to reply so email him via the website. I bought a metallic orange frame in November and I'm currently running it with 130mm Bombers. There's plenty of tyre clearance and my 2.4 big betty fits no bother.
The frames are quite long. I'm just under 6' 2" and ride a medium with a layback seatpost and 70mm stem.
