    I was hoping a 29 inch mega tr would appear. Edit: I just saw on vital it says the unpopular mega tr has been dropped.

    How much would the Bb drop with 29 x 2.4 tires?

    The scout 29 now on chain reaction. I wish the chainstays were a bit shorter.

    Is it possible to fit 29″ wheels into the transmitter?

    There is a 27.5+ one this year also that has boost and you could likely run that as a 29er with decent tire.

    It’s £2000 for the frameset.

    The reach on the xl is making me uncomfortable! :)

    I’m down to 2 bikes from 5 and now trying to go to one. I have a girlfriend that also rides and it was getting silly. The thing that pushed me over the edge was all the maintenance and a few things all failing on various bikes in a small timeframe. I still have a mega tr 26 and a pinnacle arkose. I’m planning dropping both those and trying a hardtail 29er. The nukeproof scout 29 looks like the one.

    The space underneath is actually pretty big. I took a nukeproof mega in a Planet X bikebag on national express to Heathrow no issues. The coach was a 2am one and it was not very full. I had a backup plan which was a £90 taxi ride if they refused from Southampton.

    The cleaner way would be have a seatpost that is oval and a matching shaped seatclamp that has a built in shim that extends into seatube. 27.2 oval post in bigger seatpost for example. Then have a stopper that stops against shim inside frame when it’s lifted. It would look normal except for slightly oval post and be better in mud.

    I have had the vincero one a few years. It’s great if you sometimes use a camelbak and like the clean look and also if you quickly want to put a framebag in for bikepacking. The fabric ones look good and the bottle doesn’t touch the frame as said above, so won’t scratch.

    Vecnum moveloc I believe is available in 150 , 170 or 200mm drop.

    I can’t stop my father using his when I visit in South Africa.

    It’s a large frame with a large possum frame bag and the fit is perfect. I’m not ashamed to say that it had socks, underwear and some salad stuffed in there in the above picture.

    I did 42 km with my girl on Isle of Wight along the coast on empty roads. I must say life is good, hope everyone has a good day.

    I have the 1200 in green and very pleased. I fitted the diffuser lens and the beam is great. The lights arrived next day and the bloke was very helpful when I called with some questions.

    The meta trail with 120mm travel looks like the more fun bike.

    The maxxis shorty 2.3 looks like it will be great on the front.

    I don’t think it will be a problem. It would also be great to have a cheap hanger bolt onto the new dropout so it can be replaced by itself.

    I think there might be a few people that would buy some and that could make it cheaper. I believe a new brake adaptor will also be needed.

    It’s not mine I got the picture from their instagram. It’s a shame the brantman can no longer give us details. They need a full time stw guy that we can torment.

    I like the frameset color. They really should get the website updated with 2015 bikes.

    The 2014 arkrose 3 and 2015 arkrose 4 have the same geometry? I cant find the info on the new model. Thanks

    I’m in the UK, they £1400 from what I can see over here. The spec is very good indeed.
