So Si, what sort of size would I be wanting if I were to have one of these then? I'm just over 5'10" and would want something for woodsy type riding, say 2-3 hours with more emphasis on playing than all day trail riding.

Either the 17" or 18" depending on which TT length you prefer, though i think the 17" would be about right as they have pretty long top tubes.

Not just a ploy, but i don't have many of these frames left and the next batch may be a while off yet.

Freeridenick, I don't do the scheme, at the moment anyways.

Most does not always equal best. Do you think DW designed the linkage with pro pedal in mind?

Why is the rp 23 the best fox shock, because it costs the most?

I may have a few customers i can forward you on to if you need?

I could build you a Chumba xcl with a good spec for 2k. Mail me if you would like to know more 🙂

Details now on my web site for the Ti Holeshot for anyone interested 🙂

http://www.progressive-bikes.co.uk/tiholeshot.html

No idea about the On One, but if you want something that will be similar check out the Brodie Holeshot. £1099 for the frame. The Holeshot was one of THE original long travel hardtails, the Ti versions builds on that long heritage.

*dribbles*
I don't suppose you do a finance scheme for that Si?…

Afraid not, though i can take credit cards 🙂

If you want something a little more slack and long travel the Brodie Holeshot is shipping as of next week. £1099 buys you a lovely frame 🙂

What and where is the course?

Serious question, do i annoy most STW'ers? I try to be discreet and always put myself in your shoes, as thats were im from so to speak and realise that it can be a bit annoying, so im sorry for that 🙁

Sorry I'm late 🙂

The Chumba VF2 is a 5" trail bike that is pretty versatile. If you wanna know more drop me an email.

Just about to run an offer buy a vf2 frame and fox float qr15 fork for £1599, bargain 😉

Sizes are 16" Small, 17" Medium, 18" Large, 19" XL. The TT are quite long just to make you aware 🙂

I currently only have 4 of each size available and lots of interest in the 17 and 18" sizes.

ian, ygm.

Sam, show me the money! 😉

£1299

Ooops, i meant to type £1099!

Just had word from Canada that my stock is due to arrive very soon. Price will be a very reasonable £1299, get your pre orders in!

very funny, top post!

This all seems a bit harsh to me, taking the piss out of someone who just wanted a bit of help. Though I am feeling a bit grumpy this morning 🙂

I have a few 2010 Float RLC Qr15's at good prices, mail me if you are interested?

I run a Van 32 and CCDB on my trail bike, the added 1-1.5lB is far outweighed by the suspension control of coil imo.

Drum roll……….. Chumba VF2! Singletrack have had a test bike for a short while so expect to see a review some time soonish.

Chumba VF2 frame with RP23, Fox 32 15QR Floats RLC's (can upgrade to 36's and the frame will accept happily) Thomson stem and post, Hope wheels and Chumba saddle and grips all for £1950, bargain!

The Brodie Holeshot is a classic frame, with typical Canadian geo, long TT, slack and tough. I expect to have a few frames available though most are being reserved fast. Price will be around £1-£1.2K, I'll hope to know for sure by the end of the week.

Si

I expect to know the full details about the brodie Holeshot by the end of the week. Price should be around £1k, its just a case of how many frames i can get hold of.

What size do you need? I have a couple of Chumba VF2's at very good prices but limited sizes and colours.

have you tried 18 Bikes in Hope?

I was at Pines once and came across a couple and their kid having a picnic slap bang in the middle of the red trail, there was a mass of trees either side so nowhere to go except over the picnic blanket! made me chuckle 🙂

My Vf2 (currently at STW towers)

I didn't mean to question the point, more the what does it offer, as i'm not 'down' with different sized wheels on MTB?

thanks to anyone who has added my business page, More welcome! 🙂

just a reminder to anyone else who fancies watching

Progressive Bikes FaceBook

I think that link is broken, try again!

Well until i learn how to link the two here is my business page for anyone who gives a damn 🙂

Why would it be bad for pedalling?

That's the reason I said 'something like that' cos in sure there is more to it, I just don't understand it 🙂

Also, the latest pedals don't have as much bulge near the inner side of the pedal axle, which used to annoy some.

The fact that your foot is so close to the axle means when at the bottom of the stroke you can wrap your foot around the pedal
more enabling you to keep contact with the pedal stroke longer, or something like that 🙂

It's true, Canfield now available courtesy of your friendly bike distributor Progressive bikes!

Anyone who fancies the crampons let me know and you will get a nice 10% discount 🙂

I really like that Ton, very clean looking lines!

Chumba VF2! I offer a build kit deal, VF2 frame, Fox Float QR15 RLC fork, Hope wheels, Thomson stem and post, Chumba saddle and lock on grips all for £1950. Add a SLX group set (£350 ish) and away you go!

Stock is due to lane in Canada any day now, as soon as its landed i'll have a price (hoping for around £1k)
