Wyatt Earp Posted February 3, 2011 Posted February 3, 2011 :thumbup: You bloody egant Although you got dual right, you failed to see that your new acquisition' is not a softail.
Wyatt Earp Posted February 3, 2011 Posted February 3, 2011 Nice. She pretty. Not sire 'bout them white wheels...It's like putting mags on a Hilux. Careful now, I have white wheels on my gold Niner, it takes an agent and a dangle to have taste.
Vetseun Posted February 3, 2011 Author Posted February 3, 2011 Tend to agree with you on that one, had to build with parts from previous bike. Anybody keen on a swop?Nice. She pretty. Not sire 'bout them white wheels...It's like putting mags on a Hilux.

patches Posted February 3, 2011 Posted February 3, 2011 Nice. She pretty. Not sire 'bout them white wheels...It's like putting mags on a Hilux. pffft! if that's a Hilux, then what would you call something with 7 or 8" of travel?! hahaha! I'm thinking that's more of an ML63 AMG... can take the little bumps and park on pavements hahaha! ps. I have white wheels on my 'Unimog' and Yellow on my 'Hilux' (morewood Izimu DH and Yeti AS-X Freeride) VIVA LA DUAL!!
Vetseun Posted February 3, 2011 Author Posted February 3, 2011 Shot Ill put that one in the memory bank, maybe I can also educate some dude one day.

So a softtail can use pivots therefore making it a dual suspension, Im a bit confused.

So a softtail can use pivots therefore making it a dual suspension, Im a bit confused.If you look at the Wallup, the triangle almost looks like a hardtail till the seat stays meet the shock.The chain stays and the "plate" at the BB flex when you hit the bumps.The travel is very limited 1-1.5 " of travel, they "soften" the ride, a full susser is just that, the entire rear of the bike is active.

Mackie Posted February 3, 2011 Posted February 3, 2011 A Cannondale Scalpel is also a softail. Titanium frames make the best softails IMO
mitsu Posted February 3, 2011 Posted February 3, 2011 Nice bike. Although I love my hardtail I'm going to get a dualie soon. the body tells me so.
