Yo! has anybody got a Ragley titanium piglet; Ive just got the mysterious frame from a bloke who lives in Sheffield (for a decent price).....its nice, light and looks strong, hopefully will build into the bike ive been obsessed about owning.
If anyone knows anything like; how many were made/sold, are they still available?,
What they really roll like ?
Hopefully mine will be built up soon and Ill know myself in meantime any info would be interesting.
cheers.

bizarre indeed that it seems the breed of infant boar spawn of ragley may be no more. few were bred a mere hundred,and having been roasted about the land we may never see their like again...yet all is not lost...this piglets tail has more than one twist...albeit quite ragidy!

A mere guise, a pink Link in a titanic chain....?

100 Ragley Ti Piglets were made, Ragley's reputation after all those QC problems is too poor to make another Ti frame (and it sell) but there's a new 456 Ti in the offing and it will have similar geometry to the Piglet?

The piglet said to the boar

let's trot over there and shag a sow
, the boar replied to the piglet
naa let's snort our way over and shag all them Ti sows instead

very similar to yours but different geometry for a 120mm fork..less hardcore..more versatile...depends how you ride. both made by lynskey for ragley

Learn something new everyday. I bought my frame 2nd hand and it came without any documentation, so didn't know what model it was....

yeah same ere it seems theres alot of these ti assets being traded, the way i see it they dont make em no more so can only increase in value..for the rarity factor alone,..essentially there lynskey frames that retail for big dough.
