Hairy Posted March 10, 2021 Posted March 10, 2021 I wonder what this is? Maybe a carbon hardtail? mail.pngUS made alum frames with the same geo and versatility as their carbon frames?
Chadvdw67 Posted March 10, 2021 Posted March 10, 2021 (edited) I hate that they referenced one of my least favorite Metallica songs... Doesn't look like it will be a hardtail though, kinda looks like there is a mounting for a shock on that frame Edited March 10, 2021 by Chadvdw67
Jewbacca Posted March 10, 2021 Posted March 10, 2021 So, I'm going to take the hints and go with the old ALU rear end is being replaced by a carbon rear end? 'let the heavy metal go'..... so do away with the metal 'but the memory remains' ... They will be compatible with all the old frame types etc My 2c.... Hairy 1

I'm sure I'm seeing welds on the chain stays, but the seat stays looks to be carbon.Someone with photoshop can unscramble that quickly. Edited March 10, 2021 by stefmeister Hairy and Jewbacca 2

Jewbacca Posted March 10, 2021 Posted March 10, 2021 fortune fame mirror vain gone insane "but the memory remains" Strangely I was never much of a Metallica fan. I know the music, but they never wowed me like they did some of my mates. In my darkest metal phase I still never really got into them. I tried...

Even simple things like packaging is in short supply, so this also costs more. One of our suppliers was saying he could not even find shipping containers to get his product down to SA, let alone a spot on a container ship.
