Hairy Posted July 19, 2010 Posted July 19, 2010 Hi all Anybody out there have any riding experience of these 26" frames or own one? Please let me know you feelings on the frameset. ThanksH
Mudsimus Posted July 19, 2010 Posted July 19, 2010 I own the On*one inbred. Pretty much the same frame. Im over the moon. The ride from the steel frame is just unbelieveable. But do some searches on reviews. I know there is a few on MTBR.
Hairy Posted July 19, 2010 Author Posted July 19, 2010 the inbred is the 100mm travel frame ... I am looking at the 130/140mm travel 456 ... planet-x have a nice looking chocolate coloured one
Mudsimus Posted July 19, 2010 Posted July 19, 2010 Yes the 456 is the long travel frame. But as far as I know they use the same tubing. Its just the summer season frames that is different.
Hairy Posted July 20, 2010 Author Posted July 20, 2010 Are you riding the bike as a SS or geared bike?
Mudsimus Posted July 20, 2010 Posted July 20, 2010 Nice .... this is what I am also after Awesome..so you'll run it with the chain device? I chose the slot dropout.
Hairy Posted July 20, 2010 Author Posted July 20, 2010 I am also keen on the slot like you have it there where you can still run the bike with gears if you need to. This is my current mish mash of a SS ....JUST CLICK HERE FOR THE PICS
hillbilly Posted July 21, 2010 Posted July 21, 2010 I've been riding a 456 Summer Season for the last 8 months and really loving it. A great trail bike - running it with gears and 2.5 tyres. It flies down tight singletrack and takes the edge off in the rough stuff. Highly reccommended, a really fun bike.
Hairy Posted July 21, 2010 Author Posted July 21, 2010 Hi HB Are you Cape Town based by anychance? Would love to take a look at the bike if you are. H
hillbilly Posted July 21, 2010 Posted July 21, 2010 Hi HB Are you Cape Town based by anychance? Would love to take a look at the bike if you are. H Sorry, based in Mpumalanga. There are a few in CT though, I think 'Moretrails' on the hub has one, otherwise ask Kiwi who has one down there.
Hairy Posted July 23, 2010 Author Posted July 23, 2010 Moretrails was kind enough to let me have a spin around town on his 456 Summer season and all I can say is that the bike has such a good natural feel to it. Anybody wanting to buy a Scott MC frame. I need to free up some Z.A.R. Hairy
