    Yes, another swift. Now wearing RR 2.4 front and 2.1 xmark rear. Lovely, lovely bike.

    And another to bring back those fond snow biking memories!

    Why can't I have a Singular with a short top tube? Or any other 29er to be honest. I'm a short arse who wants to runs drops, 2"+ tyres and discs. The shortest pergrine is just about there but I want a higher front end. Something like a Salsa Fargo but lighter.

    My 29er Inbred as they've been surprisingly sparse in this thread so far!

    Not ridden it in a couple of months now, but still loving big wheels overall… Might finally get round to getting some "summer" tyres for it and get it out on the trails whilst they're nice and quick!

    To up the singular numbers!

    Many thanks to mboy for the extended loan of his front wheel!! I am currently waiting for spokes to arrive in the mail so I can build mine.

    My newest, a Rumblefish2, the most industrial strength FS I have yet ridden. This seemed like a good place to pose the photos.

    Here is the 2008 HiFi, which I still ride.

    Ho much (lbs) are these SS rigid Swifts coming in at?

    They seem very popular here, either that or their riders take more pictures of their steeds than the rest of us!

    Hey Sam, if it's not considered highly secret, how many Swifts have actually been sold – seems like a lot of them are here!

    There are actually a few hundred getting around now – this is but a small portion – global domination will yet be mine 😉

    Thanks for the advice. I'm starting with copper to get used to marking out and achieving the shapes I need. I've then got 3 metres of Columbus cro-mo to go at. Apart from shipping costs it is just as cheap to use basic Columbus tube compared to trying to find mild steel that isn't gas pipe / conduit. Packing the tube with dry sand seems to help avoid kinks and crinkles.

    A few early pics are at on the Italian ss mafia's blog site – the chainstays have changed shape considerably since then. I really want to do a nice big sweep bend in the seat tube (not the tight bend shown) but it means making a big crescent template to drag the tube round – not sure if I can be bothered for a first proto.

    And this is my Ti29er (presently being replaced under warranty :roll:)

    I promise you – it's happening as quickly as I can possibly make it happen.

    That's my name-sake!
    What happened?
    Under warranty? How long is the warranty? Is it one of the 2nd batch (?) re-designed with a brace?

    What happened? I spotted a couple of cracks behind the seatpost.

    Under warranty? Too **** right.

    How long is the warranty? Lifetime.

    Is it one of the 2nd batch? Nope. First batch.

    re-designed with a brace? Nope

    i'm in the FoD and would love even a look at one. Its really my dodgy wrists that cuase the problems hence the need for a short top tube. Seem to remember that Gryphons don't go short enough. Would bve nice to be wrong. Matt

    think all the current anthems look good, so hopefully 29er versions will all look cool as well

    yer Orange swift is more niche than the blue ones 😉

    Actually I prefer the blue, but at time did not want EBB and zipped tied gear cables..
