Oh no, I've killed my favourite bike!

Re: Re:

Sounds like it will need a fair bit of reinforcing then :shock: ..

Not that much! :shock:

Just teasing mate but tbh if it's well reinforced then it should be good for a few years plus give you peace of mind which means many more miles of happy riding ..

Re:

Cannondale Prophet?

Its a similar design but looks a bit better made?

I'd have to say Santa Cruz. Heckler if it's light enough for you or Superlight if it's not. But given what is posted above maybe just stick with the Heckler!

Re:

Sorry to learn of your loss Andy, what length travel fork were you running? I have the same frame but with 110mm. :shock:

I was running 100mm Rebas. I'm going to transfer all the bits from this frame onto a steel hardtail. The Sub 3 will go into hibernation, pending repair, as my son is very keen on it.

Thanks for the quick reply, my Sub 3 was built up from parts taken from my hardtail. :facepalm:

It is repairable, all depends on how much you are wilking to pay. Chances are you can pick up replacement frame for similar cost.

I have an Orange 5 as well, so I don't really need a direct replacement, but long term I will be looking to repairing it. I don't think the cost will be too high anyway.
