Had an alert on THIS FRAME on fleabay today but by the time I got home (not surprisingly) it had gone.

Anyone from here the lucky buyer?

No

But I know the seller 🙂

Thought someone from ‘them parts’ would know one or the other 😉

I will be bumping into it coming the other way soon… 😉

it was me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

will probs be a while before I get it built and running tho…

while I’m here…I take it with the correct bb you don’t need a special chainset?

If you bought a Phil Wood 100mm square taper then any square taper cranks would do.
Cheapest option is truvantiv Giga DH 100mm BB (£40) then use there Blaze cranks but heavish and didnt last long on beach (500 miles).
or go complete 100mm BB crankset which use outboard bearings from race face or surly here in UK or lighter ones from Speedway Cycles Alaska.

Im getting around 1500 miles out bearings on the PW BB and there £6 (cheapy) £14 (SKS) a pair to replace from any bearing supplier,
need to order a PW 100mm into UK but Brixton Cycles got mine in a couple of weeks, pricey at £150 with fitting tool but serviceable item so long term good value 😮

it was me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hah, I’d have almost put money on it. Nice one 😀

When you see someone fiddling around with a half fat project, you know it won’t be long before…. 🙂

What’s going to stop you building it right now?

Remember we got a good load of snow in Mar/Ar a few years ago, and the beach is there all the time.

Bout time you splashed some cash on a propper fatbike.

You got any cash left for charlie though. 😉

heh I’ll be scrimping for a while…but I need bb, chainset and front mech…and re-drill and lighten the rims them build dished wheels…Woody wanna buy your forks back?

if I buy that DH bb do I need the DH cranks or will any do? Will prob do the cheap option and go for square taper if the concept is a keeper.

So al what half fat bits you got for sale 😉

Any crank will do.

Talking of rim drilling i did the LM on the front of Mrs ssstu’s bike yesterday.
