Whats with all the low scores this is getting? It's a bike thats won countless WC rounds, jesus, what do people want to see!!! Ignore the idiots mate, they're probably just jealous. Now if it only had Fox 40's!
The Bombers are plush and strong mate, very responsive and suit me down to the ground (excuse the pun). I'd like to try fox 40s but I think I'd get 888 World Cups before them. Cheers
It's a great frame mate. I've never seen a bad review and the reviews I've read always rate it well. Riding one will make you agree. Thanks for the 10. Cheers.
A couple of people have said that now, not sure what could be there in place of it though.. Orange build it as a Triangle because it's the strongest geometric shape. (I suppose you could build an 'arch' shape bike, but it would look a bit like a penny farthing!! LOL) Cheers mate.
Just the opposite mate. Built up from a made to order Patriot 6.6 originally. I've bought everything on it seperately and had it built by Bad Ass Bikes, Bristol.
AN ABSOLUTLE F**KIN MONSTER OF A BIKE IS THAT MATE..(NOT JUST GIVIN YOU THE 10/10 FOR THE COMMENTS ON MY LITTLE BOYS RIDE)I LOVE THE LOOKS,THE RIDE,THE FACT ITS BRITISH ENGINEERING BUILT...ANYBODY DOWN MARKING IT SURELY WOULD CHANGE THEIR MINDS IF THEY RODE IT I'M SURE..
i dont really like orange full suss(its the box section swingarm) but this is really nice,better than all those bright coloured ones.
bet it goes like fcuk?
