1. Yes
2. Ares Garuda
3. Yes
Thanks !

I'll have to have a closer look at these Garuda frames. They seems pretty interesting !
Could someone trow me some specs on the Garuda ? I couldn't read them on the official website since it seems to be written in a way my browser can't show me correctly (chineise ?!), and I could not find it on FF neither. thanks !
Try my website, unfortunately Flatland fuel does not carry these frames. www.arebykesamerica.com. We have the 2007 frame up there. The 2008 will be available sometime in August. But its a pre order deal for the most part. They sell out super fast.
Some changes for 2007 to 2008 but we will release those after testing is done.
thanks

Don't trust my measurements too much; I only have a tape measure, not a caliper. I eyeballed it out as:

TT OD = either 1 1/8" or 1 2/8", down tube is the same.

SS OD = 3/4", chainstays the same.

And it's got a 3" head tube.

But this doesn't account for tubing thickness, or whether the tubing's internally butted. And I sure as hell wouldn't trust thin, straight-gauge tubing (or double/triple butted) like this unless I knew for certain that the frame was heat-treated after welding (the Ares is).

AY EX47 07: Top tube and down tube diameter is 30mm. Seat and chain stays are 19mm. Head tube is 90mm.

The New AY EX47 08 tubing looks thinner.

I do know the 07 tubing was thinner but the diameter was bigger. 08 the tubbing is thicker but the diameter is smaller. This was explained to me by York Uno. I do not know the exact stats though.
I will ask York when he comes to my house next week for Voodoo.

Scott, That would make sense.. My guess as it was measured by a couple of people on here at about 1.26" O.D i would think it would be .049" Gauge.
