Hey All
You would not believe the hassel I had tracking down a 20" frame down.
I sold my giant reign frame last monday and rang the bike shop in Skipton who are Ragley dealers to order my blue pig.
They said hotlines had them in stock and it would be 2-3 days.
Rang the shop up on thursday to see how things were progressing, they said it would be friday.
Then on friday lunchtime The shop rang me to tell me hotlines had sold out of all 20" frames and would be september when they were back in stock.
This left me with no bike. Not good.
I then decided to ring every single dealer on the ragley site. I ticked them off one by one. Got to the end of the list and still no luck.
I doubled checked the list and noticed I missed one. Rang them up and the guy said they had a 20" black one hanging up in the shop.
The funny thing is I found out it was probably the last 20" in the country and even better it was at Chevin Cycles in Otley. (about 20 miles from me)
Picked the frame up on sat morning and took her out for her first ride at Gisburn forest yesterday with Brocklanders023 and Beavis.
What a fantastic bike. Going from a 6" travel full sus to a steel hardtail was a bit different for me and will be a couple more rides to get my head out of 6" mode but loved it.
