I was curious about the frames, the first one is available via eBay for £179 + p&p.

I'm really tempted to make a purchase of an on-one 456 carbon for £299 undecaled at the minute, but am reall liking the look of the Lurcher they're releasing shortly.

I prefer the Matt finish with the hidden weave, just a bit more subtle.

If its rideable I might be up for a ride - have done Thorndon a couple of times and its great fun but was super gloopy last Sunday. Langdon more local to me anyway (Horndon on the Hill) so might tag along... Another "fitness not the best" excuse in though :D

Ducky :wink: it probably is the same as they are OE manufacturing company and sell to the "manufacturers" :roll: the lurcher is getting a good following already.
the 456 is also a awesome bike!

9:30! get up earlier you lazy sod!
the reason we said 9 is to avoid as many dog walkers as poss, and we know you like them :wink:

I will try and remember the camera to get some decent pics of her, and not the dodgy phone ones.

What are the cable guides like? Are there metal inserts for bottom bracket and brake mounts? Are the brake mounts post or IS? And finally is it a 26 or a 29er?

Looks good in those pics, if it looks as good in the flesh I may not be able to stop myself ordering that hard tail 29er!

Its a 29er, bb, and brake mounts are alloy, post mount brake on the rear, internal routing is great, the rear brake guides are alloy and attached to the frame by rivets, very neat
