  • Surely the L96 is the only real choice

  • +1.

    Be aware that I will hate you forever if you do buy one though.

  • Who's that old boy at track league who has a million amazing frames? Maybe tap him up for something.. He was on a 496 last night.

  • Surely the L96 is the only real choice

    ?

  • That gun is shite

  • STFU n00b I'll 360 noscope you.

    (Also it's a rifle, not a gun)

  • Doug, can't remember his last name, he had an accident and got a massive pay out or something and now has the best stable evurrrrrr.

  • FN SCAR-17 or GTFO

  • Anyone selling a sniper rifle? I'm changing profession and will be taking orders soon.

  • Guns >>>>>>>>

  • Say that to this guy next Wednesday.

  • they dont seem to mind as long as you remove the cages and mud guards.

  • Not Simon Schmidt? He also has an amazing stable, usually rides the BT but I'm pretty sure I've been there while he's had three different bikes for the racing.

    I also heard that he took four bikes to the Masters.

  • Nah not simon. He rides a df4 all the time now anyway.

  • Ah no, the chap that Dan is on about is a real old boy, he usually rides a Pina with disks, but I have seen him on some mind blowing frames.

    Simon has the white BT, but also has a rad carbon Anchor and some NJS steel knocking around to.

  • CAAD10 Track.

  • That jokes getting old

  • You're a joke and getting old

  • Right to get a sense of balance back into this thread again then, so far no word from Canyon, which is strange as they usually respond back quite quickly in terms of their HR department to resolve issue (maybe its a sign)

    Oh well, after a few days to reflect on the amount of help you guys offered I've come to some reasonable conclusion in refunding my bike and some ideas of what to get after that:

    The sensible option is probably the Dolan DF4, mainly because everyone who ride the track seems to be happy with their new bike and so far no bad feedback from the frameset itself. Only downfall in my eyes? seems like everyone has got one and its a tad plain in my eyes

    Second option would be what @Sumo suggested is the Avanti Pista Team Evo II Olympic frameset on eBay, it very loud and I really like the look of it. Downside? probably when I add a normal bar and stem it will be very ugly!

    Third and final choice would be the BMC TR01, as I know its not everyone's cuppa tea but in my eyes it looks fantastic! Few issues as I stated before is that I can't find any reviews of this frameset and from the few guys from Evans I talked to they say it is a very good frame. And that's basically it.

    But the season for me is pretty much over for this year, so I will take my sweet ass time in picking the right frameset for me.

    (Btw the Look LG96 is fantastic but I can't justify that amount of money, and Ed after my epic two aluminium frameset fails I want to go to a different direction for now)

  • Ignore the lack of reviews and convince evans to let you take it for a test ride :) it's probably too early to hear reviews about durability.

  • Good idea!!! :p

  • The only sensible option.

  • The Canyon is defected, that's why they're quiet to prevent an uprising.
