No...just waiting....tik,tik,tik
and sorting parts for the build..
Authentic buying experience then 😉
Just spoke (typed) to Dale at PX - apparently the Hello Dave's arrive with them on the 11th of December.
Anyone got a Tik Tik frame yet?
as above anyone received these frames yet?
Got to be close now... All parts purchased just don't know what to bolt them to yet?!

Have you not ordered a frame then?
Ordered the dave as soon as it went live!
Still no news on axle
Guandax I spoke with customer services this afternoon as I was hoping to find out axle size for the final parts order. Supposedly they're coming with a axle for the dave now 🙂
Did they spec the axle for aftermarket alternatives?
I'd have thought so, 1.75p is fairly common. Just be a matter of axle length and the length of thread to find out.
Can't be long now!
Build is looking like:
Frame: large tiktik
Fork: 29" Cane Creek Helm coil 160mm
Brakes:Guide Rsc
Bars: PNW range Kw 780mm
Grips:PNW
Stem: six-pack leader 50mm (may change)
Wheels: Hunt Enduro Wide mullet format
Tyres: Eddy Current 29x2.6,Hans Dampf 27.5x2.6
Drivetrain: XT 1x12
Seatpost: oneup 210mm with pnw loam lever dropper
Seat: Madison Flux
Pedals: superstar nano evo
This was intended as a cheap project but backfired massively 🤦♂️
I bought this axle for the tik tik...
rock shox maxle 00.4318.005.028
180xM12x1.75
Can’t be long now!
Hope to be building it next weekend. If not, at least next week.
I did manage to control spending there and got the brand-x axle, it'll do the job.....or snap but I'm hoping it'll do the job
No such luck for me. I can make a start but won't be able to finish it until the new wheels arrive in January (bloody shimano with their restrictions)
Ah still waiting for frames to arive, cant wait to see the builds and ride reports as maybe the budget option frame im looking for!
Keep us posted with ride reports!
Says my frame is being picked on website 😄

Me too
Mine out for delivery tomorrow whoop
How can you tell it's out for delivery? I have zero information on mine.
Have had an email that delivery is tomorrow with DPD & on Planet X website my order is shipped
Mine's still in picking. Guess it'll likely arrive Monday now if I'm lucky.
Post some photos @transition
I haven't seen any emails from them after the one confirming what size I wanted. What sizes did you order? Mine was an XL.
I went for a large, wasn’t sure my forks were originally long enough for XL headtube plus 1300mm wheelbase is long, although my Ripley V4 is XL still shorter than the Hello Dave
Mine is showing as "order held whilst awaiting stock". Hopefully they've just not sorted them all yet and its not a massive balls up 🤔
Went for XL, although my order says "Large 430mm". Kind of wish I'd gone for Large as I think it's going to be rather boat-like.
Frame just arrived nice frame fitted drop outs & brand X axle although seems bit long the axle
Frame is heavy, more than my XL ripley V4 frame & no seat clamp so will pinch one from Smuggler for now
Does the XL keep the same lines? Often XL's have a compromised top-tube to seat-stay angle
any pic's yet?

Not sure about the XL as mine is a large. Will try & post some pics up Sunday when start the build if can get Flickr to work 😂
How tall are you transition1 with you going with the large?
6ft with a long torso, my smuggler was an XL with 495 seat tube & 483mm reach the Ripley is 500 reach with 470 seat tube ran them both with 170mm reverb slammed. Figured wanted something bit more throw about, 430 seat tube & 480 reach plus if sell it would be easier to sell on 😂
Yeah im 6ft and went for a large hopefully itll be ok.
@garry87w Do you have a link to the brand-x axle you bought?
Thanks

I got the last one on the list, 148-180-20-M12-P1.75 should fit (I think)
Talked to Px and they said the frames are coming with an axle?
Mine didn’t come with axle or seat post clamp
Ah, ok. You got the size mentioned above?
How are the builds going? Disappointed no pics yet!
Mine's arriving today despite originally showing Monday 🙂 Trouble is no axle so won't be able to ride 🙁 No bike shops stock axles due to the myriad of standards. Maybe one of my 142's will be just about enough to get the build finished as long as I don't actually put any weight on it.
Mine arrived today also, no dropout or axle tho and that axle I bought doesn't fit 🤦♂️, anybody any idea what one will?
Unfortunately still no building for me as mine arrived with a massively dented headtube 😩. On the live chat to px though, lovely woman called Sharon sorting out a courier to pick this fu**ed one up and new one will be delivered shortly
Mine had tiny mark on front of head tube, I got the same rear axle & it should fit not put rear wheel on yet as need to add the spacers to spec from 142 to 148 but then think axle will work just fine. I found my drop outs in bottom of box ok.
I've had to defer my delivery date but so far seems poor that frames are being received with defects.
QC, poor packaging or substandard courier... Doesn't bode well...
Fingers crossed as my 30 days return policy has passed on most my parts previously ordered?!
