Brother cycles... Cheap as chips frames

@atz That rubber looks like plumpy goodness.. Nice One

@PhilDAS - Cut sidewall that I've glued and booted so they're not really suitable for much else.

@bigshape - If you've ever had to fit a pair of those you'd understand that getting them on is a nightmare so anything else is a bonus :)

into this, looks like the full range is getting a facelift for 2024

uuh, can't go wrong with the orange yellow fade. Wasn't really a fan on the previous colorways

Liking the new colour way for the Mr Wooden 24 frameset, metallic lilac.......

.......so, with that in mind, anyone interested in a Mr Wooden frame set in green, size 54cm (S).

Don't need, but want. What's the deal?

Cheaper to get it painted no?

Probably not.

Painting will cost more than £699?

What about powder coating?

I guess if you get it platinum plated!!

£699 minus whatever the other frameset sells for shirley

(a-b-c)<699

They've really nailed the 2024 colours..

Buying the frame 1 size too big is a good way to get the correct size headtube.

Nah "classic geo"

Yah, in their press brief for the refresh they were like “we have kept the same great kepler geometry!”

!! That is the worst bit of it all.

True!

Good to see they have put a lugged fork on it now, the unicrown fork really let it down imo.

Might've missed sth but what's wrong with the geo?

it just has a rather low stack and long reach for what is supposed to be a more chill touring/light gravel bike (imo)

There’s wrong with the geo, the issue is they didn’t follow through with a 1” steerer. ;)
Seriously there is nothing wrong if you accept you’ll be running a shorter seat post and stem.

high standover and long reach too, totally pointless

and like all steel bikes, it will weight a tonne sapping all the joy of riding a bike

It was incredibly easy to find these pictures, thats what's wrong with the geo

Recreational cyclists need to stop obsessing over weight.
