    I love mine! Current xc setup.

    I emailed on one to ask why they had added the extra brace and about
    broken ti456's, didn't really get an answer about the brace but was
    assured only a handfull had broken!
    My take on it all is any frame can break but the ti456 was so well reviewed
    that lots of people took an instant dislike to it and any hint of a problem
    they jump on the "they all break" bandwagon.
    It is the best hardtail frame i have ever owned(lots) and really hope mine
    doesn't break for a long time!

    Cant comment on the new one but still loving mine(Lynskey)
    2 years on!
    Think Brant questioned the added brace on the last Lynskey
    made ones?

    Used to wash mine at 30c with grannys soap flakes, after a while stopped beading then soaking through the shoulders and chest quite quickly!
    Started using nikwax tech wash and reproofed using nikwax softshell
    proofer and its as good as new.
    Re worth the money it stands up to rain etc better than any other softshell
    that i have ever used so would say so.

    Rosetta is good, we stayed a month ago and were only charged for one pitch
    (2 small tents)!

    I got one and it works perfectly.

    Surf-mat the mini is a really good light and definetely bright, i have used a lot of different lights and the beam on this is spot on! it gives a fantastic spread in front of your wheel then throws a great beam down the trail.

    Box goes in the bin!
    I can give a big thumbs up for the trout mini, fantastic little light!
    use mine on the bars but it weighs next to nothing so should be just as
    good on the helmet.

    Jamie the Dx is fantastic for the money, but the beam on the Trout is
    much better.

    A 29" wheel fits nicely in the 26" wheel sized on one carbon fork(440 axel-crown), i found it ended up about the same as a sagged 120mm
    suspension fork! only did it to see what it was like and quickly stuck
    140mm fox's back on!

    Also using Squirt at the minute and very happy with it. Equally impressed with Rock and Roll Extreme which i find even cleaner than Squirt and lasts
    nearly as long.

    Its a ti456, dropout checked and straight.
    I have fitted another x9 and it works fine!
    so must be the mech, going to send it back.

    timc thats fighting talk! i phoned fishers who have said to return it.
    I have the 6mm gap, the low adjustment screw looks as though it is
    at the wrong angle in the mech body as it is fowling on the forward inner pivot not allowing the mech to drop far enough down!
    Frame has been checked for hanger alignment and also tried two other wheels
    all with the same result.
    Been using sram for about six years now and never had a problem until as i said above recently!

    Can the seller give you the receipt as well?
    if you had that and the warranty card would
    imagine you would be ok.

    I went from a Cove Hustler to an St4, tested a Five about a year ago
    and wouldn't have swapped it for the Hustler.Tried the St4 and love it!
    IMO less is more :-)
