    Hey gonetothehills, What length ( or is it width?) are those spank grips? I'm throwing some brown in with the orange. Got the charge saddle today. My raceface grips are too short anyway, my hands are off the end.

    hi biker66. They're 129mm total length (inc the collars) and the rubber part of the grip is 112mm – as far as I can tell…

    There's a couple of people interested in them on my thread in the Classifieds but no sale as of yet.

    cheers.

    is there a chart on the on one site with measurements im missing im just unsure if i want another 16 or go up a size. One i have rides spot on and fits great but has loads of post out and 30mm of spacers just wondered if i could get same fit on bigger frame . Five ten in height with inline post and 70mm stem. Also any pink pix i wanna see how bright it is im hoping its very bright like the orange one is meant to be 🙂

    I do like that headtube badge, have to get one for my non-stick pan grey 456.

    Headtube badge is the naffest thing I have ever seen! You should be proud to have that Yorkshire rose on your frame. If I was On One I would put a copyright on the badge! After all you are defacing the product with chav badges. Making it look like a Renault Clio with a fast sticker on the back!

    Not really – classic bikes had proper head tube badges like that. Hardly equivalent of a boy racer thing. Bitter Yorkshireman perhaps? 😛

    As sported by "chavs" the world over… 🙄

    Not suggesting for a moment a parallel with an IF or Yeti, but I think the headbadges are a good example of British craftsmanship and finish an already nice frame off very well. Anyway – what's to a little indulgence?

    Yes the Yeti and the IF badges follow in the same vain! Both look naff.

    Bench needs a coat of Hammerite and the grass is way too long. 🙂

    But don't those Lemon Meringue SS's look the business! Very nice – you must be well chuffed with it. Where did you get the wheels done?

    Just ordered an 18inch pink 456. Going to take a while before fully built though. Need some forks – thinking Pikes, but they'll have to wait until after xmas. Will start by swapping most of the kit over from my ss. Could be tempted to add gears later, but will see how things go.

    Looking forward to opening up the box and perving later next week.

    Ha! A so-called Yorkshireman who drinks lager. Pussy. What's the matter, Lagerboy? Can't stand a pint with flavour and alchohol in it? And since when has an On-One had a Yorkshire Rose on the headtube? Mine has the same as that cast badge, but the decal, same as every other On-One I've ever seen, and proper headtube badges are class, the Ibis head badge one of the most beautiful ever to grace a bike.

    Just built up a pink one for my wife.

    16" Frame with most the bits scavenged from the garage. All I need is a seat clamp as i couldn't find one the right size anywhere.

    Ah… Well spotted, it also has about 20 headset spacers!

    It's definately more of a metallic purple or deep pink in the flesh, quite striking. It's what she wanted though 🙄

    Couple questions guys…

    craig1975 – what size is yours?

    Do they measure the sizing centre bb to top of seat tube?

    Is a 456 SS the same effective top tube length as an 'original' 456?

    cheers

    First ride on Sunday over at Woburn and I love it. Definitely makes a hero out of a fool, even with 'only' 100mm forks on.

    so brown or purple mmmm ive got a brown karate monkey on its way so maybe purple is the way

    btw this is my current set up on a 16 fits bob on but im thinking of a 18 this time as it looks a bit small lol fits great and rides great i just thinking i could get same set up on a bigger frame . i think ;-)275mm exposed post and 70mm stem 35mm spacers on the front

    and yes the swap is purely a colour thing 😉

    btw are the headtubes the same length on the 16 and 18 as i cant find any info on the site

    .5 of an inch different – did I not tell you where to find it on the site? 😡 😉

    brown looks nice though that one's a bit gate-like.

    is that a 400mm seatpost then? and a 16 frame? Just trying to work it out for mine – im 5'8 maybe but have really short legs so I just got a 350mm seatpost but worrying it might not be enough. Ill measure my current pedal to saddle height tonight and then check it though sure it will be fine

    its a 410 post mate i had a 350 and it was too short should be ok for you tho id guess mine as only about 5mm over full extension but i went for bigger is always better option 😉

    its only a ride and it will make the ride on the new one so much sweeter 😉 what colour was it you got mate

    robbo1234biking

    The blue in the end – was undecided between blue and brown (im not good enough to justify pink 😉 ) In the end no more browns left so that made my decision easy!
