Similar approach to Cotic in that it's one chap - Mr Dan Stanton - designing the frames he thinks 'work'.
Here's my Slackline Ti hardtail about to mix it up on a black run in the Alps. Note the burlyness of the trail guidians' steeds. You can see what Mr. Stanton was aiming for, but in hardtail form.

I've got a steel slackline in 853. It's a bomber bike that loves it the burlier & rowdier it gets, trail wise. It'll handle anything one might have the balls for, far beyond what I could push it to.
Swapped out my Sektors recently for longer travel in a Lyrik so have taken the frame to the maximum the frame will handle and it rides even better than ever, even on more pedally cross-crountry stuff.The only problem I saw with them was the tyre clearance, getting a genuine 2.4 tyre in the dropouts can be a problem in winter. Don't know if that has been sorted now.

My buddy was up there with Dan from Stanton at the weekend....I think he's going to be the south's dealer for him. I know that he is getting four frames from him, and is currently building some 650b wheels up for the arrival of one.....you might be able to go along and sling your leg over one, when they're built. He's in Royston, Herts
Anyone got any experience with Stanton Bikes? Just came across them and there doesn't seem to be a massive amount of general chat about the compared to say on-one and the like.
