Re: BBR New Perimiter frame

Just got off the phone with a few people from BBR talking to them about some stuff and to give your guys a heads up there are going to be releasing a couple frames this year go around november but will come out for prodution next year.

Should be sick

They are also looking into a differnt shock rather then elka..

Should be very interesting.

Re: BBR New Perimiter frame

elka does make some pretty sweet shocks, marzocchi make good forks.....both mountain biking and moto. i run them on my MB and im trying to find some cheap for my pitbike. but to do it all i think fox has it covered, they make some of the best shocks for taking huge hits on Mountain bikes and i know they have to know how for motos, they have air shocks for the minis but air shocks arent quite as durable as coils....give it time though

i like the old ones personally.. look better imo.
but then again, the new ones have removable motor mounts so that you can go from a 110 motor to a 50 motor without having to get another frame...

Re: BBR New Perimiter frame

i know they arent that good but im saying to give them time and fox will come out with some good ones, like they can come out with a coil shock anytime that will compete with all of the top shocks right now, they just havent yet
