That new On-One one

650b+ carbon fork, truss frame apparently. Looks interesting.

oooh, we were wondering where that had gone a week or two back.

Any further info?

Nope, I just saw it on their FB page.

it doesn’t have a name yet but we’re going to ride the crap out of it over Xmas and see how it shapes up

I’m guessing that since it’s 650b+ you could just run it as a 29er

The paperclip bike has a serious challenger

I was thinking of putting those forks on my Lurcher for a semi 29+ setup.

Wasn’t that a Brant design before he left? He discussed it on here I think, he also discussed the seat stay flex idea a while back also.

I like that, whatever it is 🙂

It was *my* design (kindof).

Brant just translated it into a working frame 😉

Looks like a fatty that’s dieted…

I was disappointed when this thread was not news about the new Codeine 650b.

That’s mingin

I like it, will probably get one.

Could someone please explain why it needs 3 top tubes where one normally works just fine?

Cantilevers.

Annoyingly i like that a lot

Not much of an explanation?

Assuming that they arent welded together the long chainstays will flex allowing the rear wheel to move, and the seatube will bow allowing the saddle to move. Loks ace but I’d rather have suspension if the grip is aproaching anywhere near fat bike levels and its indended to be more agro.

Will it weigh more or less than Lisa Riley in a centrifuge?

Chain stay flex = Yorkshire suspension!

I like it. It’d look even better with a truss fork.

A budget alternative to a Jones / Stooge?

But the stooge is already great value and works with 650b+ and doesn’t look like a geordie lass on a night out (bright orange, showing its gusset and ugly as sin)

Lets imagine it can also run 29″ wheels…. Now can we also imagine some sort of swap-out dropout arrangement to enable single gear use? I like this.

@tazzy – chances are it’ll be cheaper…..

If the rear wheel is able to move up and down by the flexing of the chainstays – what stops it from rotating from side to side?

Also, the left and right seem to be a different shape, so is force vs deflection the same for both sides?

I for one actually don’t like it, looks like it will weigh another tube heavier than a Fatty. I’ve suggested it should be called the IronBru or On One Forth after the rail bridge!

Nooooooooo! I just bought a hard tail!

N+1

Again. 🙄

Split top tubes are gross.

I like it, would like to see how it rides

r On One Forth after the rail bridge!

One One Fifth surely…one more, one brighter etc…

I quite like the look of it, I imagine it’ll flex a bit though (side to side).

Sorry Druid, that looks like the bastard love child of Apollo bikes and the ark royal….

Nobeer/scotroutes – It also looks like extended seat stays joining a single top tube to me. Still gopping though.

I was posting it to back up your point. 😆

Best looking fatty I’ve seen. And by best looking I mean looks like it will ride well.

😯 😀

I guess lots of calc’s and CAD have been done for the inevitable bottom bracket flex and to try to eliminate it without using scaffold poles for the main triangle.

Placement of butting. double or triple, tubeset type and gauges. very interesting stuff and then to test the theory. Very exciting.

Even though I wouldn’t have one myself, Ive already got two orange coloured bikes 8)

B+ isn’t even 29+ fat, so more 1/4 fat than half fat, but not a fatty
