    ‘I got Bike shop to weigh a 650b Orange P7 frame medium weighed in excess of 3.1kg!’

    yeah, get yourself an ally frame and it’ll be about 2/3 the weight.

    Cotic quote 2.54kg for the Bfe and Similar for the Nordest. All similar money so over 600g heavier seems a lot more and shows a cheaper, heavier steel tubing must be being used.

    Half the story, Cotic quote the weight for a small frame, no idea what the others weigh or what size they pick, or if it’s painted, includes axles, etc.

    Cotic do use a mix of 853 and heat treated Cr-Mo which is probably better than the ‘normal’ 525 of the Orange, so granted that that does explain at least some of the difference.

    I say this partly to see how people thinks it looks in this company

    I assume any 27.5+ will take 29 wheels

    Almost all, a 29×2.4 is a little taller than 27.5×2.8, so some will only take skinny tyres which defeats the point on a bike intended for rough trails.
