Finally!  A clean 19/13 frame without a super low (ugly) top tube!    Any other specs?

I always wondered why sym doesnīt make a sabath again... well here it is..  :beer: :beer: :beer:

The only thing that i really donīt like is the seat stay bridge
I would use a tube instead of  a faceplate, it will look more "sabath" and i think that it will be stronger too.

looks? or is it really that much more difficult to lift your leg/foot 1/2 higher or less

Its NOT a "Sabbath" its a "inTRIKat" frame
if S&M wanted a NEW Sabbath they would call it "Sabbath" and made it look more like the old Sabbath with updated specs.

Yes. It really is. And i'm being 100% serious here.

In all honesty, its hard to tell without a photo of the frame built up.

lower wishbone + upper seatstay bridge = ... ... ... ... . . .  .  .  .   .   .










This doesn't add up right???

Why combine the strength of a wishbone with the weakness of a little machined bridge. Why not just two pieces of tube like on the LAF???

I love the wishbone but wish they woyld have done the two tubes like on the  Sabbath. I wonder if when they have this modle in production you could customixe it by asking for that?

Yeah that's what I was thinking too. I hope so. I will probably get a longer toptube too if it's customizable. I like the wishbone - looks like there's plenty of room for fat rear tires too which makes a nice change. I'm thinking that I like the little gusset. Reminds me of my first true love - the FBM Equilibrium. . .

dont like the seatstay metal bridge.
i prefer tube.stronger and better in look.
if the tt was 1 inch lower was gonna be better but doesnt really matter.
