Been waiting on the weather to dry up to put trans black over Vernon's 24" BMX. (Humidity hinders the powder from adhering in the harder to reach places.)

This second FS/SS frame has an even 100mm travel where the first one was 85mm. It has wider set bearings and a different system for tightening the main pivot as well (the pivot axle doesn't just squeeze the bracket) I also tried a slacker 68* head angle and higher 13.25" BB height. This geometry would be more at home on rocky terrain where clearance is an issue and a slack rake is a must. I have gotten very attached to the lower 12.3" BB and steeper 69 HA that the first iteration has.

When I find the time I will try a different design for a more trail/AM oriented bike.

My Supertherm is still in queue, but Vern's 24" BMX and Nathan's 26" street MTB frame will be done by this weekend.
