    didn’t the dropouts crack/fall off the (edit:first batch of) lynksey 456’s?

    litespeeds with headtubes falling off?

    A change of material will not make up for poor design or manufacture.

    A 07/08 Litespeed Obed was specced for a 140mm fork & replaceable hangers – though I think they have changed the spec for 09.

    You could always convert your Vanillas to 120mm of travel like this which would open up more frame options but keep the buttery smoothness of the Vanilla…

    No need, it’s in MBUK next issue, alongside the Ragley Ti, Whyte 19Ti, Genesis Ti.

    So far I’ve snapped 2 mechs on Ti 456. The second went into the wheel, I immediately backed off the power but the hanger bent ever so slightly.

    Not sure how much force it would take to snap the dropout, but it bent very easily.
