That Ultimate looks tasty. The e-stay Alpinestars reminds me of a time I was on a group ride with Dave Hemming, his brother (can´t remember his name) and Michael Jackson (not the Bubbles one). Dave´s brother was riding the Alpinestars that MBUK were testing, on a downhill he jumped it in...

Very nice, PK Ripper has a connection with Yeti mtb´s, doesn´t it?

Stunning. If Ali G had a bike, that would be it...

I have to admit I really like those forks, not as nice as a BOI, but close, must be a hell of a lot easier to make though.

Well, Chris discounted $20 because they are unpainted, it looks like the prices went up quite a bit (like, $100) straight after I bought them: http://www.iglebike.com/forks.html Apparently, Chris built for Fat Chance during (some of) the Somerville years, and has a lot to do with the fork...

Recently received these beauties from Chris Igleheart, they were delivered within 3 weeks of payment, even got a sample of chain oil and some beer mats as well, a great guy to deal with:

I remember being passed by Mike Kloser on one of those (or it could have been an Alpinestars) in South Wales on a climb, I also managed to block (inadvertently) Tim Gould on the singletrack, which was the cause of some embarassment, because it was recorded on an mtb video that several people I...

People here will love the Maxico name, "si hermano, es el Maxico!" lol

Apart from the spoke elbow going around a square edge, the problem there is you have effectively two different spoke lengths, seen it before and it results in only half the spokes in a loaded area receiving peak loads, shortly after they start snapping.

Sweet, thanks!

To get to the point, I recieved a BOI fork from Chris Igleheart that has 420mm axle to crown, I have since seen that in the day they were 410mm for short travel suspension adjusted frames. I am worried that it will affect the handling, or maybe be better, any ideas?

Hi everyone, I´m new here! I have seen people recommending using longer travel forks on Yo Eddy´s... So, what is the consensus on the best axle to crown length on a BOI for a Yo that was built in 94 for a mag21?

Hi, my real name is Alex, I got the name Tuercas from a mechanic´s dog in a workshop near where I used to live, a spinger spaniel that was always covered in grease and muck. I live in Mexico City, started mtbing in Suffolk, near Greg Fuquay´s old workshop. Then I moved down to London, and when I...
