Sat on one of the full builds yesterday and I was impressed, decent clearance at the rear with a big tyre, looking generally tidy and well put together. Good looking bike.
Where?
Sheffield Planet-X store. Think it was the personal bike of one of the guys that works there. I asked nicely and they fetched it from 'out the back'.
5th of May sounds good! Thanks Brant.
Hi Brant, earlier in this thread (page 2) you agreed that shimano brakes will be an option on the build. Any chance of a Hope option I don't mind digging into the pocket to make up the difference if any.
Thanks.

Our position on that has changed I'm afraid, so it's X0 Trail's on the bike.

Brant later stated would actually unfortunately be possible.
If you guys want Shimano breaks take the Alixirs off, Ebay them, Buy Shimano whatsoever with the breaks.
Shorter bearded test rider put a lot of time into the small.
He gets everywhere that bloke 😉
Commiserations.......you have my sympathy
........ for having an On One
Brant, any plans to do a frame and fork only deal? Would be interested if so.

This will be coming at some point.
Excellent!
Brant YHM......again 😀
Oh...and have we any pictures yet of the full bike build in blue, not just the frame?

Not yet.

Will there be a tune thingy to set up the ccdb shock ? Or is it a fiddle and play job 😀
Those "tubeless friendly" TL28 rims. What does it take to set up UST tyres on them?
Also: I think the spec is 160mm and 180mm rotors. Does that seem a bit small? If you were taking this bike to the alps...
I'll add another question into the mix - I've read on MTBR that there are plans for a 650B 160mm version; how far behind the 29er do you think they'll be, and will the spec be the same?

Pacentis are very similiar to Stans (though I think with eyelets?), I've got a set of the CL25s and it's just tape and inflate, dead easy.

Aiming for end of the year.

I will get some team riders to make notes.
That'd be good Brant if you can get the team riders to take some notes. A couple of 'base' tunes would be a good help to get started with finding a good shock setup.
So it's early May...do we have a date yet Brant?
8th of May is the date I have for stock landing currently.
So 8th of May + 21 day build time(quoted) = end of May before I can rag it ?? Better be bloody good 😀
avid brakes are a bonus for me! love em. sold XT for them
Early June then 😥
Is that for all frame sizes? Hoping for my large arrive in time for the EWS or I'm doing it on a HT! 😕
Preorder bike builds for Codeines are booked off on the 19th May.
Sorry 'booked off'??? Does that mean built and dispatched before the 19th or to be built after the 19th??

I'm sorry. I hate people using internal language when talking to customers, and I just did it...
We have booked bike build slots on the 19th of May to build the Codeines that are preordered (we have 12 mechanics who can build six bikes a day each).
Haha, cheers Brant for clearing that up 😀
How's it looking for a delivery of a preordered medium frame in white Brant? (Just frame, not full build).
I'm doing the grizedale enduro on 18th may?

Oh can I be very cheeky and ask for a little sit on it at the race?
I'd hope we could *ship out on the 12th
*deliver

What about new pre-orders?
Do they get built 21 days from order date, or 21 days from you receiving the frames?
Thanks.
Jeff. It'd probably be 21 days from ordering.
I would try my best to lean on Ewan in scheduling to get stuff ASAP though.
Ordered a frame and forks! Can't wait. Bit of time to decide on how I'm going to build it. Blue looks great.
Brant - still looking good for despatch on 12th for frame only?
Maybe my grey matter is playing up .. I'm sure the codeine was listed as available "Early May" ?
Now it shows "Mid May"
Dates still ok Brant ?
I'll find out. Sorry for delay. On holiday in Outer Hebrides.
Tom in the office says...
The Maxle's are now due to be delivered on the 9th, so dispatch of frames mon/tue sounds good.
Bikes ordered have slots in the build queue reserved for the 19th.
Wicked. Can't wait to get this built up this week.
mechanics can build 6 bikes a day each! - that's going some isn't it?

It's their job. They are very good at it.
I know but I'm still impressed
