Euro BB - it's a race frame, if it was on a street/park bike then it would start to smack of New School (although there's frames in that category from the same year such as the T1's).

And that is from the lips of the midschool moderator so I would say it is gospel and it is what we stand by.   :daumenhoch:

Ok hang on a minute.... We now considering bikes with integrated head tubes, euro BB's, and Canti / V brake mounts Mid school?  :LolLolLolLol:  :uglystupid2: How about a Speed Wagon? It has the exact same tech as a Wood, and is even made from the same material. Is that mid as well then?

Dannywhac:
No - it's a race frame. Different kettle of fish as said above.

They hardly frikkin changed from about 97 till 2005. If that was a street/park bike then we'd be looking borderline. Take some of the street/park frames coming out in late 2003 and you start to see the onset on new tech - shorter rear T's, micro gearing etc etc.

Oh. More importantly that frame is from 2003 - which is the end date on what we all voted on for the end of mid school. So it's mid.

You do know the Neal Wood was a race frame right?

So I ask again, What is the difference between a Neal Wood with integrated Head tube, euro BB, and V brakes, and a Speedwagon with Integrated head tube, euro BB, and V brakes?

The whole world does except for Rad.  :daumenhoch:
