Here is the first sample of the next Ukbikeco frame, it fits in between our current frames its higher than the revo but lower the evo and has a 13.5 rear end and comes with fully removable  cable hangers and brake lugs and integrated seat clamp it is also made from Reynolds 853 tubing weight approx 3.6lbs

keep you posted on the progress of the frames but this will be along time before its out in the shops but will be coming in smoked chrome

I like smoked chrome too - good call!

Will that be smoke chrome effect paint like the taiwanese WeThePeople stuff - ie their Lock Stock Ashley Charles bars? Its very effective and looks like the real thing. Or will that be actual real deal smoked chrome like the demolition rims? If its the real deal then this could be the frame to tempt me away from my s&m! Maybe...
looks good dude.

Nice looking frame, just wondering if this has been machine strength tested against other frames in the same range on the market and what the results would be?

all frames being sold to the Uk have to go through the exact same process and have to pass that process before i can even get a sample, the best testing will be done when a certain rider gets it

got speaking to the bloke in the shop at Corby last week and the UK Bike frames he had sold as soon as he got em in!  said he's just waiting for the next lot to come in as he's got loads of people wanting them!   :4_17_5:

loving the forks as well........had a look at those in the flesh and they're well nice!  :daumenhoch:

Good to hear they're flying out of the shops Dibly  :daumenhoch:

Any ideas of price? I'm assuming as it is 853 that it will be more expensive than CroMo?
Title: Re: next Ukbikeco proto frame
Post by: dibly on October 24, 2008, 02:18 PM
i havent got a clue on price at the mo im afraid,

this frame will not be out for a very long time yet and probs be undergoing a lot of changes which all affect the price but will keep you posted on the developments

spy shot of another UK proto frame, filmed secretly via crutch-cam at Lythams regional race meet on Sunday






"Looks well light" was the phrase from most who saw it
