habs auch schon auf ridemonkey und mtbr.com gesehen wurde auch schon früher auf rm gepostet, dann wieder gelöscht, dann wieder gepostet, gelöscht und nun hats wieder jemand gepostet könnte also durch aus was drann sein
36 mm würde langen und ne Float wär klasse Bei der 36 merkt man null Unterschied zwischen Float und Van, aber man spart bisl Gewicht Ne Talas Gabel mit 18 cm FW braucht doch kein Mensch Für nen Enduro Radl wird die Gabel eh zu schwer und 18 cm ist auch viel zu viel für nen Enduro Radl
aber eine freeride gabel wie die 66 oder totem von fox wäre schonmal eine sache. deswegen 38 van, meinetwegen auch talas, wenn die so gut funktionieren.
meiner Freundin ihr Dad hat so ein ähnliches teil fürm Lenker. wird einfach statt dem normalen Griff montiert und wenn du am Griff drehst wie beim Moped macht des oginal Sound. Echt zu geil, hab mich gar nimma eingekriegt. Leider ist des Ding aus Billg Plastik und fällt sicher ausseinander wenn du stark am Lenker ziehst, aber fürs Citiybike Bombe
Als Kind hatte ich so nen gelben Lautsprecher am Lenker mit Mikrofon drann. Verschiedenen Sirenen hat das Teil auch noch drauf gehabt. Damit hab ich das ganze Dorf terrorisiert
Gibt irgendwo nen Video wo Frank auf dem Hinterbau rumspringt um zu beweisen wie extrem steif der Rahmen ist.

Some numbers emailed to me, taken off built bikes:
"Set at it's slackest, with a 3" stroke rear shock (full 9" travel) head angle for all sizes is 63 degrees, and bottom bracket height is 13.5" You can achieve a steeper head angle and higher bottom bracket in two other settings with a 3" shock. There are also 3 adjustments for a 2" shock to set it up as a 6" bike, while maintaining similar head angles and BB heights.
for small: wheel base is 46.5" medium: 47.5" large: 48.5" X large (custom, no more planned unless needed): 50" "
Taken off the FTW Industries blog:
"Max's bike is assembled with a 09 Boxxer and Rocco shock. I took some measurements (it's a medium) and here is what we have. With the fork slammed on flat crowns and the steepest of the three positions being used on the shuttle the head angle is 65.5 degrees and the BB rise is 1" (13.5 tire radius +1"= 14.5" at full top. The chainstays are 17.4" and the wheelbase is 47.25
If you were use the slackest shuttle position with a slammed fork you would get 1.5 degrees slacker head angle at 64 degrees. sliding the fork out of the crowns a bit can get you out to about 60 degrees if so desired. I will likely make another batch of shuttles with one degree of adjustment per position. We will also make one for shorter shocks though you may be able to use this one reversed with a 8.5" shock for 7.5 of travel. Once the main shape is done variations of that is easy.
I didn't ride it myself (smashed the crap out of my hand last Saturday) but Max and Becky reported back that the bike was quick and initial set-up of the shock was straight-forward. I watched Max do several sprints and the bike accelerated very quickly and without bobbing.
Becky raced last weekend and claimed to have amazing speed on the bike through the BMX type obstacles. I am stoked because i pushed the pivot as high as I could to produce the best shock rate available to a linkage-less design. Again with sub 8 lbs frame weight and nearly zero suspension drag This means combined with the very low unsprung weight and neutral pivot the bike will require only minimal damping and have wicked fast suspension acceleration to keep the wheels on the ground. This will improve traction (specially in corners) and reduce the likelihood of punctures and wheel damage."
