On-One Scandal vs Inbred

[Bike Mob]

When are the 29ers coming?

[Boris]

Ok the two frames below are On-Ones 100mm travel frames with horizontal drop slots ex. http://www.planet-x-bikes.co.za/ ...

 

So the Inbred is in steel and the Scandal in 7046 Aluminium ....

 

My question is as follows - will one loose that feel of steel that you get on the inbred should you go for the Scandal ... i.e will the Scandal be a harsher ride than the Inbred?

 

Any On-One riders out there able to comment?http://www.planet-x-bikes.co.za/images/products/Inbred-Slot-Dropout-side-on-green.jpghttp://www.planet-x-bikes.co.za/images/products/09-Scandel-sliding-droupout-006.jpg

 

I have the On-One Scandal 29er and love everything about it , its the best move i have made since i come off a carbon hardtail 26er ! it climbs really well and handles tokai single tracks with ease and even jumps and lands really well.

 

the Carbon upgrade looks awesome so please Kiwi let me know when it is available !

Hi Guys,

 

There's lots of juicy news on the new On One 29ers including first tests here:

 

Report 1: http://twentynineinc...range-report-1/

Report 2: http://twentynineinc...t-2-ti-xc-29er/

Report 3: http://twentynineinc...w-carbon-29ers/

 

Make sure you have signed up for our newsletter on our home page - just pop your email address in the box on the left. The On One Carbon and Ti 29ers should start to be available January or February in some sizes but pre-orders will be taken soon and considering the interest they are going to sell fast!!!

 

There are several other pretty cool 29er things that are brewing at the moment as well...

Hi Bassasdaindia,

 

I'm hoping to hear from our Customs Agent Monday, It's in the country apparently - just trying to confirm that, so not much longer! The carbon is only available from 16" up at the moment but On One is planning to do a 14" 456 Carbon but no time line yet.

 

hi kiwi,you can put my name down for the carbon 456 in 14"...... I'm really looking forward to building the inbred.

Hi Bassasdaindia,

 

Cool, let's see when they will be available in 14". I heard a rumour some of the 4X guys have demanded the 14" size 456 Carbon so maybe it will come sooner rather than later!

Hairy, the frames are so cheap why not buy both ?

 

If I didn't have the GT Peace, I'd definitely buy the Inbred to go with my Scandal.

One word to answer your question as to why I don't get both .... Wife
