have a look on trick track, pretty sure there's some discussion on them there.
Last I read they were pretty similar to V1 but could accomodate much fatter tyres.

The wheel base looks much longer

26" wheels on the one in the photo

Makes more sense now but still looks silly

fixed gear trick bikes are now 26" bmx/cruisers?

26 fixed tricks on that charge v2? no way, bb is way too low!
get a charge stove, proper b height for 26 wheels and you can pick one up for about £300 complete!
fixed gear freestyle world doesn't really know where it is right now.

edit: looks like they took it out of production, maybe realised it was getting too close to fixed freestyle and it was priced too cheap for the cruiser/pub bike market.

Agreed 26" on the Scissor is crazy, I read that the bb height is the same as V1 which for me was already on the low side for fixed with bmx pedals.

they stopped the stove a few years back before the lameness that is ffs took hold. i hope they redo it now with lighter tubing because it's great but heavy.

I really really want a stove, been looking for one for ages now, really tempted by the P24 2011 that Specialized do but cant fork that much out =[
V2 of the Scissor looks really nice but yeah for 700c not 26"

that trick-track forum is great, since checking it out i have started talking to eighth-inch about buying one of their butcher frames. they are coming in at a really good price and the bottom bracket is higher then the scissor so i might go with that instead.

bb height on the scissor is wayyy to low for 26's. i have ridden juliets charge and its ridiculous how low her pedals are even with 165 cranks.

her bike was the one that got me interested in the scissor but it looks like i am going to go for the new eighth-inch butcher instead.
has anybody been on the v2 charge scissor or have any info on it? i am thinking about buying one to build up my first trick bike but i dont know what they are like compared to other trick frames on the market.
i sent wiggle and charge emails about it and apparently they are expected to land in shops next month.
