    Am gutted. Was really hoping the Bootzipper 29 would accept a full transplant of my drivetrain and wheels, but full boost spec rules me out.

    That shouldn’t be the case, you may need nothing more than a rear boost converter.

    Thanks brant.

    Are you doing pre orders? I don’t want to wait and then miss out!

    …From the steel on one frame thread

    New Scandal looks good to me, might be an upgrade for my trusty parkwood, mainly to get an XL – Brant, think t was mentioned before, but is there going to be an XL frame? Assuming that six weeks is the shipping time from China/Taiwan and the pics are from the factory…doesn’t seem that long to wait.

    65 head
    500mm seat tube
    480 reach, 610 stack (I think)
    74.5 seat angle
    135mm headtube.
    660 ETT
    58mm drop
    120-130 fork.

    Just wait a few months for them to go on “sale” and pay the real price….I’m saving for a black friday bootzipper…

    No. You’re meant to say it’s too/not enough something or other.

    Ha! Judging by the instagram comments it should also be a carbon fattie with sliding boost dropouts

    what size are the two frames in the pics, the orange and the black one?

    If youre not doing raw, I guess it’s got to be black

    RIGHT.
    UPDATE:: IT IS ACTUALLY LIVE

    Price is £250.

    URL is:- https://www.planetx.co.uk/i/q/FROOSC29V3

    And code PREORDER100 will knock £100 off that, and it’ll be valid for two weeks.

    Comes with rear axle, nothing else, and I can’t find the right headset on the website and I’ve got to go pick the kids up from their mums.

    Are there any full builds in the pipeline before I hit the buy button?

    I’ve kinda got all the bits I need, but but the time I’ve either bought forks or settled wkth 100mm ones I have, adapted hubs, settled for whatever ‘narrow’ rims I’ve got spare and ended up with a dog’s dinner build. I’m tempted to get a full bike….

    And it’s probably been asked, 27.5 clearance? Not a deal breaker but if I’m building new wheels they might be b+ and keep the narrow 29er ones as spares. But if not I’ll use that budget for a new form or wider 29″ wheels.

    As above, before I hit the buy button…will it run 27.5+ as well as 29?  Quite keen on having a light weight xc wheelset and chubby trail set.

    It has not been checked with B+ as I didn’t have a decent set of wheels around to check. But…

    Chainstays widen internally to around 90mm, which will give decent clearance for up to 3.0in B+ tyres. Dimensional clearance for 29in is 80mm at 364.5m to match the shoulder clearance.

    Of course there is always chance of it being moved back.
    We are planning for mid October but boats sink and who knows what else.

    Is there enough room to get a 31.6 dropper in the 30.9 seat tube?

    These look great.. And at £150!!!
    Good work On-One I’d say (and Brant for putting up with everyone requesting the moon on a stick)..
    Talking of sticks and moons, any chance of a raw/brushed version? 😉

    Anyone spotted any good fork deals for them? Must be something better value than ~£450 Pikes.

    Thanks for the discount code brant!

    Before I hit BIN do you have any idea on the weight of the frame? It says tbc on the website. Thanks

    That burnt orange – has the colour not been captured very well in that photo? It looks more like a 1970s dull orange, but slightly brighter in the other photo.

    Will it come with the cable-routing grommets, or will they at least be orderable?

    Finally! Is that an open hole on the inside of the chaninstay near the BB?

    I think the hole is a cutout in the chainstay plate, not a cable exit hole, I assume to save grams.

    Dammit there were some £299 (and another 10% and £10 etc) 120mm SID RL on crc at lunchtime, but no description so i waited till i got home for some proppper googling to check it wasnt some oem sfuff.

    They’ve since gone upto £429.

    Spite. And the latest strike in the Torque Wrench price war.

    Assuming the background of the orange and black frames is in fact the same, one of the photos has clearly shifted colour balance or exposure. The floor changes from a darkish green to blue ish. So I’m guessing the orange is off too

    They’ve since gone upto £429.

    Maybe CRC is the latest in the long line of e commerce sites that show different prices based on the device and type of IP used to view the site.

    Am I correct in remembering that the scandal and the big dog will have essentially the same Geo?
