I,m looking for a new frame and saw one of these in the LBS obviuosly they made a fuss of it but does anyone else have one and if so what are your thoughts? i also noticed that the rear brake mount holes were not slotted so does this in any way effect the brake when tensioning the chain??

Ive got one Love it. Not set it up single speed yet but the calipers can just be moved back and forth using washers on my avids.

My mate has one set up SS, he had no problems getting his IS Hopes to work. Real nice to ride apparently.

my housemate has just bought one, it's bl0ody great.

light, strong, cheap.

ideal for the sort of 'ride all day, ride up stuff, ride down stuff, jump off and over things' riding that most of us enjoy.

you'll only need to move the wheel a few mill forward/backwards to get the chain tension right, the calliper sits at the top-dead-centre of the disc, so this really isn't a problem.

enjoy.
