New wheel size from On One..

On One Dee Dar – 26″ wheels. Madness, they’ll never catch on.

Dee Dar

The noise a 1970’s UK Police Car makes, I assume?

“He’ll not sell many ice creams going at that speed.”

26″ wheels, FFS, not another new re-cycled standard

Found a container load of forks and wheels in a forgotten corner of the warehouse. Bought some frames so they can shift them…….

must be from Sheffield

Dee Dar is the nickname for Sheffield people .

Well, one frame anyway.

It’s the trail bike we built because we wanted it for ourselves.

And after it arrived we realised it was a pos so are flogging it…

No geo? Standard!

Yay – my bikes are back in fashion 🙂

I actually really like the look of that!

I do wonder how many carbon 456evo’s they have left to sell. Awesome looking frames, just at the wrong time.

Surely that’d be something they’d be better liquidating sooner rather than later unless they really do believe 26″ will come back around and place no monetary value on warehousing.

Any links to these as cant see them on the on-one site ?

If they were anything like the regular C456 there’s loads of clearance to run 650b in there anyway

I know, it’s almost like they don’t actually want to sell stuff……………. or the place is staffed by idiots. I can’t quite decide.

Dee Dar is the nickname for Sheffield people .

Strictly it refers to accent more than origin, but I do prefer the police car explanation. I’m sitting in Sheffield (like half of STW it feels, some days) and a childish glee of police car noise was the first thing that hit me when I saw the name…

But strangley its for sale 🙄

Looks okay to me 🙂

Sounds grand. I wonder if they’re going to give all their other trailbikes the tagline “A trailbike we don’t want for ourselves”

Really don’t like that seattube bridge thing but the rest looks decent

I quite like it when they offload an unwanted prototype.
Looks OK, plenty of superfluous features on a slighty longer 16″ 456: stealth dropper routing, 142×12 rear end, would anyone pay £800 for it though?
X5 build 45650b is £50 more at present and has slighty more fashionable wheels… I’m sure someone will have it when it inevitably drops to £550 in a few weeks/day/minutes…

Who ever said 26″ was dead”

So where are all the new 26″ on ones then?

There is a scouse model too ” Day doo doh dont dey doh” 😀

Build that as a frame only and i’ll buy one…been looking for a slightly more modern version of my Ragley Piglet 26 for a while now….do it.

Me too. I still have that Titanium Pompino. 🙂

There’s nothing wrong with 26″ if there’s room to fit slightly fatter tyres.

Surly Dirt Wizards make a huge difference to a 26″ bike – I reckon the extra plush of the extra volume puts it slightly better than a standard 29er, ie rolls better and more compliance absorbs trail lumpy bits better.

There’s nothing wrong with 26″

The wheel we’ve all ridden for decades and never realised how wrong we were until we were told

Baa

Potentially dangerous. Any 650b owners who have gotten use to talent compensating of the bigger wheels will struggle back on 26 😀

Where’s these bargain 456 carbons??

Did OO ever manage to flog all those Jimmy Saville specials they bought just before it emerged he was a raving paedo?

Yes.

Bulk order from the House of Lords Cycling Club. 🙂

and Stealth routing exits seattube on drive side is an interesting choice.

I have just received this bike and got it out of the box. Its not 26 inch wheels as advertised its 27.5 have I let the cat out of the bag? surely on one could not have over sighted this. I got it for £599.99

what a bunch of bloody numpties!

The bike has diappeared from the OO website. Was it just a one off?

Paul, nice catch that’s a steal…

My bad on the 26″ reference; 200 clearance bikes to photograph and write content for in 5 days and get on the website, I’m sure there’s a couple more errors in there if you look closely enough. There’s certainly a load of bargains in there.

The Dee Dar will be back very soon, as a full production bike.

Don’t forget to pump up those forks and turn and tighten the bars before you ride it Paul 😉

Simon.

I really like it and specially the surprise of the wheel size.

I am awaiting a shock pump and some pedals atm so should be up and running in a weeks time. I live 2 miles from the new flyup 417 project that has just opened recently and cant wait to test it there

Will there be any spare on one dee dar stickers floating around when in production. Be nice to have some

So 26 IS dead

I quite like that.

Complete lack of any frame geometry etc info as usual so we just have to imagine what ‘slack’ means but hey ho.
