Hairy Posted August 15, 2017 Share The idea makes a lot of sense and the bike probably performs great BUT as soon as you have to go through 36 bearings to look for A creak / or replace 36 bearings you may want A conventional bike 36 is probably way more than there actually is I count 14 + 2 sets of headset bearings at least you no longer have the following issues...

Headshot Posted August 15, 2017 Share The idea makes a lot of sense and the bike probably performs great BUT as soon as you have to go through 36 bearings to look for A creak / or replace 36 bearings you may want A conventional bike 36 is probably way more than there actually is I count 14 + 2 sets of headset bearings Agreed, but still think it has a future, if they ever get it off the ground. Think of all the effort put into rear suspension while the front gets the same treatment with minor tweaks year after year... I think the major advantage along with increased torsional rigidity is the HTA effect - it doesn't reduce under braking and on descents like a conventionally forked bike.

BSG Posted August 15, 2017 Share Whyte S-150C Works I have seen quite a few Whyte bikes in the UK in July when we were there and I actually wouldn't mind having one. They have some very nice 27.5, 27.5+ bikes but helluva expensive. Hou die rubber op die grond! Andrew_Smith and BaGearA 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totally agree with you, they are quite expensive, but a very well know brand in the UK (like you stated). A cool feature of the above one is you have to ability to run 27.5, 27.5+ (if I am not mistaken) and 29" wheels. They also have a unique geometry.
