Ares (and other set ups)

[K.Wong]

My friend cracked his AY Daw within 1/2 year of usage, the head tube/ top tube and head tube down tube juncture; the whole front end held in place only by the plate gusset underneath the down tube.
 keep an eye out for that, otherwise a good handling frame.

ps: friend was into whopper and whopper variations, complex back wheel links at that time; bike goes flying out from him frequently so take what I've written with a grain of salt.

Thanks for the heads up K.Wong.
I gave up on whoppers after I turned 40 haha!

My Buddy is a portly fellow! But he is only 5'5 so I am hoping with the addition of the Down Tube Gusset the strength will be increased 10 fold, however... I cannot see him doing whoppers lol

[K.Wong]

Ha, alright! Take care and ride hard!

[K.Wong]

Oh no- those are you's frames and bike setups, not mine.
i have ninja-type bikes- low key and super drab- bike thieves are real prevalent here in singapore, go figure, huh.
