Mid School heavy flatland bikes?

<< < (2/7) > >>

manteo:
You have some awesome frames. I like mid school and old school frames. I was thinking about trying to buy a Volume Mid a few years ago. The only problem was that the next frame I plan to buy will have a 75 degree or more head tube and a short rear triangle.

Correct if I'm wrong but most midschoool  bikes I have seen are stretched out.

Mr.Jowee:
I had a '98 EP with 8 piece bars and a solid steel spindle. Yeah.

It seems to me that in the late 90's, the heavier your bike was, the more hardcore you were.

brian84corvette:
the morales frame has like 18.4" top tube with 14+" rear triangle.
its down fall is a verry slack 74 head tube angle and super sized seat post is silly.
that and also the stupid 1" head tube that takes old style threaded forks.   

out~riding:
The last Morales that came out acepted 1-1/8 headsets.

manteo:
I was looking at the parts tab. I saw some eastern flatland forks. The list showed that they weighed in at over 3 pounds. Thats crazy. There are frames that way that now.

LOL.
