  • Does anyone know where I can get just the forks?

  • Evans.

    When the fuck are they gonna make a large frame?!

  • are they still stocking the small?

  • no, im continuing my search tomorrow, but it seems like nowhere has them :( fucking annoying

    @maxcrowe i dont think a large is necessary, i am 6 foot 2 and have been told a medium will be fine for tricks, it has a beefy toptube, just more seatpost on show i guess..

  • You're a midget in comparison.

    I'm 6'5" and a medium is way too small for me, even for tricks.

    I'm building up my 62cm Steamroller for tricks and that'll be about right until I start doing bigger stuff, when I'll inevitably need less standover.

    Charge Bikes people, please take note.

  • Charge Bikes people, please take note.

    Not sure they will. 6' 5" people are very much a niche market (no offence max!)
    And as the Scissor is already a niche within a niche I think Charge have enough niches to contend with.

    None taken! Bike companies make bikes for average sized people give or take a few inches, because thats what sells.

  • Max, I'll pay you to buy a XS langster (or something else with an sloping top tube) and ride it like a BMX.

    I don't know why but the image of that is fucking killing me today.

  • Ha!!! I would love to.

  • technically, a small Scissor with 26" wheel and the fattest tyres imaginable is a BMX to you.

  • True.

  • distro doesnt get their scissor shipment til 16/6/2010.. my friend checked the website! nightmare

  • Wtf?! 3 months!?

  • Saw a hipster trickster riding a charge scissor in Seattle the other day..

    just sayin'

  • Those frames look nice. Been looking around for something new. As my Plug frame is rather heavy. I believe the Plug frame is 10kg. Anyone have any idea how much lighter this frame is?

  • Apparently it's a little bit lighter. According to someone I know who used to ride a plug and now rides a Scissor. His Plug was the biggest one though, so a bit of an unfair comparison!

  • Just a little bit ey? Hmmm. Well I might keep looking around. Especially if the waiting lists are this immense.

  • Plug - plain gauge steel.

    Scissor - butted steel.

    just sayin'.

    i swear he must tell everyone that. he is right though

  • I think scissor f&f is 3.3kg

  • i swear he must tell everyone that. he is right though

    ha!!

  • I think scissor f&f is 3.3kg

    You must have a light one :-)

    I weighed my medium on a kitchen scale and the frame was 2.2, the fork was 1.4, making it a 3.6kg frameset.
    The weight weenie inside me is beating me up every time I ride mine, I have not had a framset this heavy since riding low end BMXs 30+ years ago!

    I live with it because it rides and handles exactly how I like.
