I think that soon, NS frames will have a stub seat tube that you just bolt the seat straight to, without needing a seat post. They might even use the pivitol system.

I think a company has already started doing that (can't remember which company it was - Sunday maybe?) with the pivotal mount welded onto the frame. Dunno whether it was a production frame though or just a prototype for a team rider. Sure it was in the last/current issue of Ride mag I looked at in WHS.

Hey hey, look at that. Id forgotten Id said that over a year ago. The guys from sunday must be checking out my posts! haha.

didn't realise that post was a year old.

Dunno whether it definitely is a Sunday I saw with integral pivotal mount (I'm sure someone who has the latest issue of Ride will verify). I can't keep track of all the new school freestyle companies and what they're all doing at the moment.

Use that time machine to go back in time instead of forwards and bring back more OS stuff.

Or go forward and instead of looking at Sunday products, get me next year's winning lottery numbers

It's the Sunday Ian Schwartz pro model, available in white with pictures of fish on it, stub pivotal post integrated.

It was no heavier than the Standard STA i moved on to! Well maybe a bit heavier! But that's why mid schoolers are so manly!

harris · « **Reply #34 on:** July 18, 2008, 07:25 PM »

it looks heavy , but ask alex i have a heavier one

bmxer4ever · « **Reply #35 on:** July 18, 2008, 07:43 PM »

Neither of those were the answer I was looking for!

Is it a secret..........?

cool , only heard about them but never seen anything of them

they look burly as hell

good to hear steve geale is still about , i only know of his mtb days where he was a top name in dirt jumping , i think he held the highest hop record too ( sadly only counts on a mtb for some reason

)

tobybrown35 · « **Reply #40 on:** July 19, 2008, 08:13 AM »

spoke 2 steve yesterday said he made 80 framesets

evamedia · « **Reply #41 on:** July 19, 2008, 01:32 PM »

My friend had number 38, I'm sure it was well heavier than an STA though.

kev-s · « **Reply #42 on:** July 19, 2008, 01:36 PM »

i knew a guy in the 90's who had one at the same time i had my sta and im pretty sure the zima was heavier, that seat tube must of weighed a bit just on its own

harris · « **Reply #43 on:** July 19, 2008, 01:40 PM »

i have a new 95 sta sat here, can give it a weight

Lazarou · « **Reply #44 on:** July 19, 2008, 02:25 PM »
