Since its a special month then and we're all going trimble I'll stick the rasta trimble in again for good measure since there were a few who thought this should've been a winner................heres your chance again chaps

like a few here, I would never have classed the trimble as an e-stay. It's more a mono-stay and a different class, much like the rear suspension bikes that are mono-stay swing arms are being disallowed
I'm also assuming rear suspension bikes are not allowed that do actually have e-stays e.g proflex like pickles ?
Where are the Kirks ?

I do not know whether shouldn't allow them, but maybe we should rename it the e-stay and boom-tube BOTM (without the later there would be a not so substantial number entries)
Even though the boom-tubes bikes have the same technical benefits (and less positive points) of not having a conventional chainstay, I see Trimbles, S-bikes ...and also my own Rafty as boom-tube bike in the 1st place.
On the other hand a Grove X-frame is a boom-tube bike with regular chainstay :roll: As that has nothing to do with regular e-stays, that would be an argument in favour of running a seperate e-stay and boom-tube BOTM.
