Looks pretty good, not sure about the headtube, dont route the front brake cable through the internal gyro, just take the front brake off.
Or are you a pussy?
I give this a ten, they gr8 lookin little bikes!
The big boys like Sam Pilgrim are jumping on ashton bikes and I'm sure they can make a bloody descent bike for the general joes!
Looks like a wicked all rounder.
Sorry, but its had a lot of crappy remarks already it doesn't deserve!
Keep riding dude!
you made the right choice to change the fork i got one of these i landed of a jump the forks snaped and i faceplanted badley and the rear wheel buckled and i had to pay 80 quid for a new on cus it has an over sized axel it looks rubbish like mine
its dick heads like you that give mtb a bad name. see i wouldn't be so pissed off if you actually gave me a reason for having a disliking of my bike. dont just give out 1/10s without a clear reason.
fork wise save up for some rockshox argyles...DJ3s rnt good.
also if you can find a magura hydraulic rim brake for the back it will be worth while!they are powerfull!!also i think you will find that for your bars get some low wide ones...they give great control over everything.
i wish i could put a disc on the rear but there are no mounts which is a bit gay. yes the front disc is awsome for the price. i still dont know what forks to get any ideas?
the stock forks were the same height as the front sus. the disc will be on at the end of the week so i will repost the pick. the lizard skins are coming off they look shite unless i had them in black. laters peeps

THAT IS A TRIALS FRAME
DirtJumper replied... on 14 September 2007
ye its made by orange and ashton, and orange make awesome dirtjumpers, and anyway that frame is a do-it-all and so can do trials or dj's

that is not a trials frame just because it is designed by martin ashton doesn't mean its a trials bike. look on the website.

Always loved ashton bikes, this one looks superfly, well done mate on the great bike. Btw how much did you pay for that fork?
reeny replied... on 28 August 2007
thanks for the comment mate. the forks cost me 145 but i am upgrading soon to more of a jump style fork. the toras are good though

agreeing with most people here i am not sure about the head tube, forks, or the rear v brake, but hey... looks good and fun :D

fork wise save up for some rockshox argyles...DJ3s rnt good.
also if you can find a magura hydraulic rim brake for the back it will be worth while!they are powerfull!!also i think you will find that for your bars get some low wide ones...they give great control over everything.

i wish i could put a disc on the rear but there are no mounts which is a bit gay. yes the front disc is awsome for the price. i still dont know what forks to get any ideas?

good place to start but the rise on your bars is way to high now you've added the forks.
