Bianchi XLTycoon MTB Frameset - 22.5inch
They're quite silly - this is obviously not a 22.5" frame -
They've also got a very nice NOS Martini Racing frame - stupidly expensive - and again certainly not 22.5" £1200 (A Columbus steel frame)

Re:

To be fair, they probs charge to prices they do so they can cover the cleaning costs at the shop.

I know they haven't had it easy of late that's for sure.

and man, they have some stock hold.

That Yates is a rare beast, i think that one has been discussed before.

The 22.5" is the top tube measurement, it even says that on the specs

And they are doing well staying there through all that :shock:

It’s a shame as they have some really nice frames and as you said - we get the brick lane tax, but they would be able to shift a lot more if they weren’t expecting shorditch denizens to buy a retro MTB for that amount. Then again I guess they may have bought them at very high prices. Who knows.

I have been there a couple times - they stock Phil Wood and other choice bits and they build nice wheels.
I remember I turned up on my MT4 and they treated the bike more royally than their customers - admiring it then carefully placing it safely away as I was going to return same day but leave my bike there
They’re quite nice guys

This?


I do like this - Columbus genius frame and fork with the funky colour scheme - I don’t know much about these though.
