Pic shot by Ed at the top of “bastard tarmac“.
That’s my pre-production sample, in 18in. Wearing 2009 Rev 140’s, 50mm Nukeproof stem, a sample Ti post. Oh, and I’ve got one of the new Cotic DH tops on.

What size is that?
Colour looks kinda nice, looked ‘mustard’ in the other pic

That’s an 18in. We’re still not totally nailed down on final colour. And we have discussed doing a “funky” colour, and BLACK as well 🙂

How tall are you? just looks right. Go for blue, it’ll match my jacket!

I’m about a 6’1″. Blue? I’ve done so many blues I’m bored.

Black’s a must. It’s a no-brainer colour that people like me don’t have to think about. I’ll end up with a black blue pig. I see why woman always have at least one “little black dress” in the wardrobe. 😀
How about an introductory ‘Electric Blue – Pig’ (depending on finish you can get) – kewl! :p
I really liked the Ti silver with ‘Tweak’ green as a combo, neat and simple. I guess a similar colour combination (or colour combination in general) on a blue pig frame would push the final price up.

How about “Obama-caramel” (certainly the international, world-saving, uber-topical, Mandela-esque flavour of the month), or is brown soooo two years ago???

I have to say I really think this colour is it. Blue is too obvious given the name, this makes you go ‘eh?’ when you see it after forming your idea of the bike based on the name.
Looks great with the white kit too. I’m fed up with greys and blacks on bikes, they’re not colours, just tones!

“Tones” 😀
A default standard issue black and a colour or two would cover most people’s tastes. 😀
Overall hard wearing, quality finish, counts for most people in the practical / eye candy stakes.

Comments noted about colour. BLACK will be an option. Hard wearing paint isn’t an option, it’s standard 🙂

29er version ETA ?
shedfire 12:06 pm on April 22, 2009 | #
No plans for 29er version of this. But that could change in the next 10mins as I’m having a “continental” lunch (ie: half bottle of red).

You look like mattmagic in that picture. I can tell it’s not him though – the bike’s still in one piece.

You mentioned “in shops around 60 days or less (TBC tommorow)” on the 19th. Got a date yet???

No. But I think that’s accurate Ish.

Really nice looking bike, I like the colour; even if I could afford a Chromag I think I would still go for the Ragley.
Steve 2:28 pm on April 22, 2009 | #
Is there going to be a single speed version ?
shedfire 5:29 pm on April 22, 2009 | #
No SS version planned.
Cheers for the comparison with Chromag. Love their stuff.
