Looks like a carbon version of a Yeti. Nice.

Pfff, why don't they make a nice carbon HT with v-brake pads. Now you have to buy the tank of a rebel race if you want v-brakes. It's not fair.

Did they reach the "target weight" :shock:

I like where they put the disk mount. It would interesting to know where/who it is made by - is it another Chinese frame?

Shame no V's :cry:

Looks really nice!
The rear disc mounting looks really weird/interesting.
What's the weight?

I always wondered why some company like, extralight or similar, don't make some nice and light V-brake adaptors for frames like the Scale/Rebelion/Newer Kleins etc - that are disc specific ?


Similar to the ones pace make for their forks, you could probably get them down to the 50g area for the pair.

i think because those frames are not designed for v-brake use. if you use adapters on a carbon frame you can break the seat stays because the force applied there is too much...

They look like baby sized wheels in the picture. I thought all hardtails should be 29ers?

Original post is from 2007, so no wonder why the frame looks outdated;P
