Is it safe to order a big dog now then, or more to the point, am I safe to wait until the weekend once SWMBO has had a few glasses of I’m-going-to-be-in-less-trouble?

Frame will be £175 tonight or tomorrow
UPDATE: Code HOTDOG now offers frame at £175
Orange, Large ordered. yay!!
It’s going to be loads of fun establishing which parts from the old 29er fit and which don’t work on this frame. All part of the attraction…
As it’s going to be both commuter and bikepacker, I need as wide a range of gears as I can get away with. Without breaking the bank on 12 speed nor changing the rear hub.
I heard a rumour (I read a post in the other thread) about a rigid fork version. Any details on spec, availability? Would be interested but don’t want to miss the discount!

It’s on the site already, the SX full build comes with it. You have to spec the Rock Shox if you want them.
Big dog frame in raw phosphate ordered. Never built a bike up from frame only before and fancy it as a winter project. Plan to buy a few bits each month and raid the spares box and see what happens. Will be using it for local trails, bit of bikepacking and as a general run around town bike so hopefully can pick up some bargain parts and go from there.
Previous page according to Brant 32 teeth on non boost should fit fine – he quotes 50mm chainline which is +/- what a lot or cranks quote.
36 teeth in boost should fit but bit in spec.
Anyone know how long the discount code will be on for?
I know it’s meant to be a dig describing these as shit gas pipe frames, but the big dog sticker says it’s triple butted on the image (impossible to read on mobile as the images won’t zoom but I saw it last week on the laptop) One of the other frames was the same… this is crap…but the sticker suggested otherwise.
So, are the main tubes ‘nice’ or is the triple butted slightly posh sounding sticker only referring to the down tube?
Anyone got news or had email on the frame only orders?
I’ve just noticed a mistake on my order confirmation from last month. It makes it look like I’ve only ordered a big dog thru axle 😮 but my PayPal receipt says big dog frame.
My frame order email was the same, looks like only the thru axle. Sure it’s fine. No news but PX Instagram post suggests the shipment arrived today as scheduled.
Went on PX chat to see if I needed to stay at home tomorrow, and sadly, it seems the axles have failed QA so nothing is going out just yet. They are on to Superstar to see what they can turn out.
An email will go out with revised delivery timescales once they have them…
Anybody had any Big Dogs shipped/delivered yet? Either full bikes or frames. Waiting on a frame. I had heard about the axle issue, but since pre-ordering I’ve not received any correspondence at all, anyone got a revised timescale through?
I think like some others, I got an order update e-mail yesterday, which doesn’t specifically say it’s out for delivery and just repeats the limited info from the original order confirmation; i.e. just mentions the axle not the frame that I’ve paid for. I’ve no idea what’s going on. Frustrating, Brant….
