This wee beasty is hot off the jig and will be being raced on and ridden by Nick Turner of The Development DH team here in the UK. The front triangle is being painted in metallic purple to match the team's new Royal Racing team strips, rear swing arm is being left in polished alloy - pimpo mucho!

Got these photo's straight from FTW himself, can't wait for the frame to land in the UK.

All team sponsors now fully confirmed and we're ready to rock.

Bring it on!

:cool: :cool: :cool:
 
That's nice, looks different to a lot of other frames on the market. Look forward to seeing it painted and built up :)
 
FTW = frank the welder??? ➡️ :?: :oops:

i take it its unique, MASSIVE travel :shock: nice!
 
Yep it's Frank Wadelton, and yes he's gone solo again under FTW Industries:

He's not in bed with Spooky, although who knows for the future. We're running the FB10 as Spooky do not have a viable DH frame as of yet.

Can't wait to see how it handles.

Rear travel is a smidgen over 9 inches, but you can flip the shock over and use a different hole in the frame to push about 5 inches I think it was using the same shock.

The frame is a complete and utter work of art.

As for Sinister, I can't comment on that one.
 
Very nice, lovely bit of welding there! Looks like a cross between Norco and Specialized. Can't wait to see it built.
