On-One / Planet X bikes and components

Cannot unsee that tiny crankset!

I loved the idea of the Picklefucker, big fat clearance and a whole lots of fun.

If brakes feel very spongy, replace housing with compressionless one.

Shoulda got a Straggler ;-) Nice though, on paper it's very good value for money.

I reckon that looks lush

Received a Planet X catalogue in the post yesterday, bigging up their winter clothing range. In March.

And a load of in-store events. That happened in February.

Cover photo is out of focus and very low res but features a bike in an interesting looking paint job, and rider wearing Planet X cycling shoes. Neither of which feature anywhere in the catalogue.

Marketing geniuses.

^ha yes they're crap. I asked them about their winter clothing range in sep last year and was told it would be available in oct - they had nothing all winter. It might mean some a bargain sale or more likely they'll hold on to it till next winter.

They're cheap, not slick or organised.

Alloy 'cross frames are cheap at the moment.

They'd be even cheaper if they weren't spunking cash on useless mailshots.

ha yeah I got one of those last week, glimpsed through it and thought, shiiii I thought on-one did some decent stuff... where did it go? Also its now spring or have I missed something?

Looks interesting for a commuter, winter trainer. What say you forum?

Looks tidy.

Something like that but with Di2 would be kinda what I'd like to replace the Kinesis with.
Steel or Alu, fat clearances, Di2, hydro brakes (no cables).
Maybe a disc fork only? Thru axle front but not rear so I can continue running Powertap? That would require a single cable unless I used something like Magura hydro rim brakes which seems a faff. Prefer dual disc but then I guess I'd need to get PT disc unless I went for crank power in which case £££. Hmmm

Have you seen this?

I can't find anything about tyre spacings and it doesn't appear to have any mudguard mounts. Looks pretty good though.

I think that's the first time I've seen something full price on their site.

^^ Now that's a deal!

Anyone with a 24" Baby Fatty? I wanna know the a2c of the forks but whoever answers the emails at On One is fucking clueless.

Just purchased a PX Pro Carbon Road frame & forks in their sale for £299. 00. Seems too good to be true. Seems really well made and super light. Going to swap over the 5700 groupset from my Trek. Just need a nice 31.6 seatpost now.

Bought a kaffenback for £600 the other day.

With Apex?

Yer.

Bought a N2A Frameset earlier for £360. Sale/payday madness.

Hey guys, does any of you have experience with their clothing? I'm planing to buy the 365 pro fit jersey and bib shorts, some base layer and etc. thought maybe I could hear some opinions before doing so.

Thanks
