Im aware that most bikes are assembled in the far east.
Is this just assembly or are the actual tubes made/formed there now too
Reynolds 631, 853, 953, and ti is all made in Birmingham. 520 and 725 are made in Taiwan under licence.
What about the Reynolds Aluminium in my Orange5?
mmm 953, id love a 953 indy fab when* i graduate
*if
Not sure about the aluminium, I use someone else for mine.
Bloody shame we can't weld our own products together anymore!
@fontmoss: SHOTGUN! Indy Fab 953... Currently the reason I can't sleep at night is that I'm praying/fantasising they'll build ME an off-road frame from 953.*
*As a favour, and gratis, for being such a nice guy.
lol! well assuming i can stay on my course you've got 4 years for it to come true, after that though....
Four years for me to work on convincing Mrs B that I 'need' an Indy Fab, and dig up the spare cash?
Hmmm. Seems doable!
😉
if you do manage it then fire me a pic (or let me have a shot :D)
Anyone know what's actually in 853 (apart from Iron, and a little carbon)? Or is it a big trade secret?
I actually got as far as asking I.F. about a 953 frameset - apparently the mtb project is on hold for a bit as their stocks of 953 tubing were a bit low ...
geuss it give us all time to save up for one when they eventually start taking orders !!!
