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.

Still doesn't look right to me

Sounds like you need a Gryphon matt.

Really must get pics of my 3 29er's sorted out as the only ones i have are cr&p 🙄

Militant Graham's bikes are nice but i'd rather have his Land Rover!

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!

My most favourite bike ever.

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.

I am fairly short of leg and ran my swift on drops with a sensible stem i also have a gryphon set up in a similar way which is just lovely

Where are you based as your welcome to a little go on the gryphon .

As Joneses are so common here's my Banshee Paradox

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.

that seems like a reasonable law you have there Repack

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!

another swift 🙂

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

Its an old donkey, but I love it dearly…

blimey petesgaff, that is bright!!

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

beach…

and winter…left outside at a friends overnight… it was -23C

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.

I resurrected my battered tatty Inbred just yesterday.

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

Hurry up and get the new frames in then, you've no idea quite how upsetting these threads are to me at the moment.

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?

Another Swift

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

The Team Ragley TD:1s have been doing quite well since we got them 😉

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

looks like they will be out soonish…

Giant Anthem 29er

Hurry up Giant UK!

Some nice wide flat bars in use there. What's everyone using ?

Truvativ World Cup singlespeed. 700mm wide and 10degree sweep.

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

here's mine

Got rebas on it now.

More pics here.

my current 29er.

Geared Swift

Looks like I'm not niche enough, but here's another Swift:

i think all the current anthems look good

Looks like I'm not niche enough, but here's another Swift:

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..
