    Geometry based on fully extended 140mm fork

    Thanks you for that
    any idea of the angle , running say a 100mm fork ?? .. closer to the 69.5 of the standard 456 maybe ?

    I dont mind using paypal , thats ok .. quick and easy , but as im selling a frame , their cut of my sale is almost £40 !!
    in my mind thats alot of money ..
    Have put , cash preferred , but the annoying thing is you dont get the option NOT to have the paypal payment ..
    Its a win win situation for the robbing B******S

    Bought a Titus frame from them myself in February , all I can say is excellent service , ordered Monday nite , turned up Thursday afternoon ..
    If its a frame it will be 4.5% import duty and 17.5 % vat plus about a tenner for fed-ex`s handling charge ..
    If i remember right i got charged about £140 ish ..
    still worked out well … :D
    Just a shame im havin to sell the frame , due to the redundancy that coming !

    We went over the Easter weekend , myself and the wife … never been before and had a great time ..
    we did the dungeons
    jorvik center
    and the minster …
    Pre-book the dungeon and the jorvik to avoid the queues !! ,also the dungeons are cheaper(£4)during the week , instead of the weekend

    go for a run or 2 you fat knacker!

    I thought someone would say that !!
    Had a reply back from Titus today and they suggested i get a High Volume canister fitted to the shock and that should help ?
    ive emailed Mojo to see if they can help or not ??
    Ive never had any issues like this before on all the other FS frames ive had !

    I am guessing then that the frame has a different stroke length than larger sizes, which would mean that the comments (mine included) about the frame size not being relevant, are wrong.

    If you need something small, with adjustable travel, horst link and quality, then Nicolai would be the way to go.

    Yeah , the small and xtra small run shorter stroke shocks .. hence the higher ratio !
    looks like im totally buggered

    vinnyeh – Member
    can't you run it in 4" travel setting- that'll lower the ratio to 2.66 to 1

    Ill try it in 4" , but thats not what i bought it for

    Could always lose loads of weight !!! .. but wheres the fun in that ??
    Would rather sell the frame to be honest :D

    the leverage ratio means that you are buggered on that frame, it was designed to have a high leverage ratio to optimise it for smaller/lighter riders.

    Thats my thoughts …. looks like my dream frame will be in the classifieds by the weekend then !! … Total waste of money
