Great viewing. Tensor Cycles Warehouse in I think Co.Durham, they'd be cool brochures to view if anyone has them. Kalkhoff, Schauff and other odd brands for the time

You have this or the later increased travel? Great looking frames.

Here it is, from 98'. Set up for dual slalom by Darrel Young, ex bmxer. Smaller wheel for steep head angle most likely. I see their ebay shop is still selling, though if still valid? who knows.

Love the Arrows. Your black finish looks classy. I've seen this with 26 rear 24 front, just for slalom. Late 90's bruiser.

Want to make some scans? The other tests of the Ancillotti and Taillefer frames, add them to my thread.

For the fans of mx swingarms and top notch alu fabrication.

The MX style swingarm looks mean. Its a regular push shock, the swingarm 'pulls' up the linkage onto the shock. Easy (!).

From UK, the rad looking Stakes frame.

Thinking about it. When i find a cheap 24"rear, be setting up again.

My frame from March 2001. Anthony Revell had just begun his frame co. here in UK and agreed to build me a custom 24"rear, 26" front. My version of the Brooklyn Park bike. I then had the brassneck to tell him that his current headtube design was'nt strong enough, so can he build stronger...

Amazing looking bikes. Those linkages...

From Germany, the Cyclecraft DH and a great bike from 1982, the Fireroad Descender.

From Tyneside, a dh frame using a rare URT design.
