Zoiders to the rescue.

Well it was turning in to a load of beard stroking guff.

I was waiting for Recordace to put a jazz CD on and point at people with his pipe while talks down to them.

What does the new gusset plate thing above the top tube tell us?

Depending on how long the older version's seat tube is sticking up unsupported above the top tube, if it is more than an inch (which appears likely), I would certainly consider that a stupid engineering design, which presumably has since been "cured" by the gusset...

+1 I doubt they would go to the expense without good reason i.e. too many warranty claims and that sort of failure could kill someone.

An extended seat tube allows you to move the seat post slot round to the front of the tube.<BR><BR>It prevents mud and water ingress.<BR><BR>Of course if some of you were were professing first hand knowledge on the subject of MTBs one of you might have known this.

What's with <BR><BR> Zoiders? I've noticed it some of your other posts too...,. Is it some kind of engineering notation ?

 

[Zoiders]

It's the forum software having a spaz when you edit things.

BR = break when you hit return, for some reason it's not carrying out the commands.

Well, if you will buy frames built out of re-cycled coke tins..

You find 5 speed blocks on 126 wheels.

You are going to have to accept that and move on.
