No on a Singular Swift.
I’d love a Whippet but just want the frame/ fork. They’ve never been on offer thanks to Covid and probably never will be. It’s going to be a year or two before any excess stock is sold cheap if they have any. PX has stock and that’s something, so he’s no reason to sell at prices he used to. The full bike’s good value though and I’ve thought about buying one, but I have a load of good bits on my Swift…
Whippet rims are 30 internal I think now, if you’ve got those you might be better looking at 2.4’s rather than 2.2’s I use, though it suits a light build. I did read something about tanwalls not being as strong as black sidewalls but don’t know if thats true.
I rode a carbon 456 evo with Lurcher carbon forks with 26 then 27.5 Crossmax’s XC before and love a light bike, both the way it feels and the lighness carrying it or throwing it over gates. Still have it. My Swift’s head angle is a sharper 72 dgrees and I think somewhere between the 65 or so on the 456 and my Swift is probably about right for XC like the Whippet has. I like the 120mm carbon fork as that will give a bit higher stack for more comfort. It’s pretty unique to get those. Bigger frame main triangle will take bottles and a small frame bag etc. Current trend for straightling headtube to rear axle gives no room for that. I like my Swift, just a steel 29’er with sus forks (and a Brooks) is ‘evy.
