Charge website possible pedant's picking point?

"with horizontal drop outs" it proclaims of its "Tap" hub-geared 'urban' steed.
Dunno about you, but those look distinctly like track-ends to me....

MUST START NEW THREAD

chill out man.

:)

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

are you saying there not horizontal drop outs

Someone's gotta do it!

(and yes, cos they're not drop-outs...)

Oh dear.

(Graph of a horizontal line)

Hehe.

It's a slope...

A website with an error in? Surely that never happens.

That's what you call a semi-vertical dropout ;)

I'm shocked...

"Track Fork End
**Not a dropout!"

**

Lots of mountainbikes have "horizontal dropouts", they aren't called "track ends" because they never go anywhere near a track. Charge started as a MTB company, so I guess it's just from that.

Really?

can i have a go on someone's charge one day? they look like they'd be quite distinctive to ride, geometry-wise.

my only website gripe is with the menu on freshtripe... 'shiny bits' etc... such a chore to use :(

I've ridden a Plug (standard), interestingly tight, makes for responsive handling (or 'twitchy', depending on what you're used to). Quite confortable though

oh man....

Come down to polo, you are welcome to have a go on mine.
