Dartmoor hornet

Stanton slackline, just built one up for the mrs, nice looking frame wish I’d waited for a 18″ one to come up so I could use it too.

I really like my ragley piglet 2 oink oink

that privee in the classified is what I’d buy or an Evil sovereign if you can get one.

The 456 evo II is a great riding frame as well and dirt cheap, no good though if you’ve got tapered stearer forks. but love mine

If you can get hold of a Transam I’d fully recommend it. Great all-round frame. Tough as anything but pedals really nicely. I had it originally with a 140mm Pike.

With new paint and 150mm Revelations.

I’ve actually swapped it with a Production Privee Oka now as my main hardtail, but I’ve built the tranny up with spares for my girlfriend.
Great frame.

Loved my old Slackline. It was such a lovely bike to ride and so much fun.

EVO II frame here in 18″

I bloody love my P7, but everyone should own a Chameleon at some point.

They’re the 2 wheeled equivalent of a juvenile delinquent drinking cider, smoking weed and necking legal highs, while casually vandalising a park, before donning a scary clown outfit and going terrifying some grannies by leaping oput of bushes at them brandishing a chainsaw.

Whats not to like? 😀

2nd vote for Dartmoor hornet

I have a 2010 p7.It’s a pleasure to ride it.
There was one for sale on here a few weeks ago I think…..straight steerer though…

My old Chameleon….

Replaced by a succession of more old duffer friendly steel frames (presently a P7). As MC pointed out – very accurately – after a couple of hours you feel like you’ve dropped the soap repeatedly in the showers, while Mr Big and the boys were in and had the horn. Its a brutal ride! But prior to that, for short blasts, like you’re on about, its like an oversized BMX. A right old laugh! 😀

Nice bike that MC! I do feel a pang (mainly in my arse) about a nicely sorted Chameleon

I love this On One 456Carbon 26″ Single Speed, but check it out, right now it’s under $500USD for the frame…you can get a nice long travel hardtail for around $1500…

I’ve just stripped my original, raw, c456 with 2 degree Slacker and Fox 36’s set at 140. It has a brand new lower headset bearing.

Cheers Binners – that photo was just after I’d rebuilt it, looks more “loved” these days – had a dilemma recently whether or not to keep it or the (probably more practical) heckler I just sold… knees are dodgy so a few hours of riding is about all I can manage in a day, might as well give myself a good thrashing along the way 😆

Thanks for the options, I’ll have a gander. Ruling out Ragley as they seemed to be priced far above what I’d pay for a brand with a rocky reputation.

The new ones have gone expensive but you can still pick up early ones for peanuts. If you can live with stiff-as-**** then the Mmmbop is awesome, and if you can live with heavy-as-train then the Pig is worth a look. The handling really is outrageously good, any idiot can make a long slack low bike but my Ti wasn’t just awesome at descending, it was the best technical climbing bike I’ve ever ridden.

Carbon 456. Totally ace and going cheap 2nd hand. Love mine!

I went for an Aline over a Prince Albert. Just aother to add to your list: especially now you’re leaning toward steel.

I love mine. I also fall off a lot and it’s fine. I’ve taken the downtube stickers off as I wasn’t a fan of the gothic font.
