  • Very nice. Definitely the ideal mtb i need in my stable one day

  • I just came here to post something about this being just the right bike for you :D

  • its a sign

  • Thanks guys. Really looking forward to try out the new geo. Taking the old one for a ride today to refresh my memory, then swapping over the parts tomorrow.

  • Probably among the most beautiful frames I've seen in my entire life!

  • Wow, too kind guys!

  • Actually got a frame up for grabs. Size medium in matte black - the one on the previous page that was painted in China.

  • Do you have geometry info?

  • I'd have been so interested in that, but now that I'm trying to braze, I'm keen to build myself a steel one.
    Awesome frames though, so clean.

  • Here's the geo chart.

  • How has this changed for the new ones? Out of interest

  • This is the latest one. The green one was a bit shorter, slightly taller, had slacker ST and sharper HT. Plus a bunch of small adjustments here and there.

  • I see, thanks. Longer, lower and slacker is a good thing if the rest of the mtb industry is anything to go by

  • Yep, but nothing over the top. Will put plenty of hours on it this week and come back with my verdict.

  • We got it built! I wasn’t really planning to go for a ride today because it was getting late, but when I took it for a spin around the block I could’t turn around and ended up on the nearest trails (in a white t-shirt and white socks). Anyway, it was super fun! Not hugely different from the first generation, but a lot of subtle changes that make up for an even more fun bike. The steeper ST makes it better at climbing, the longer reach allows for a shorter stem that allows quicker and more responsive steering. I look forward to pushing it more over the next days.

    Proper pictures later, but here’s one from the phone.

  • Very nice indeed

  • Very nice! Looks like fun

  • Looks wicked. New geo is right up my street.

  • Scored a cheap second hand XX1 11sp groupset. Never felt the need for 12 gears and the GX 10-50t boat anchor bothered me. So now it weighs in at 11,3 kg as pictured. I will try to take some proper pictures soon.

  • That is very, very nice

  • STOLEN. Please keep your eyes open. Only six of these are made and this is the only blue one.

    It was resting on display at The Service Course Oslo when they had a break in last night. To other bikes was takes as well.

  • The bike sadly never showed up, so I'm ordering another one. This time we're also opening for friends to join the pre-order. Both this and the gravel frame. Msg me here or shoot a mail at thomas@stribecycles.com if interested. Deadline to join the order is Sunday 12th.
