Nice one DSD, thats a good frame list.

What is that one on the bottom left? I cant make it out

darkersomeday · « **Reply #52 on:** May 08, 2009, 02:02 PM »

race version/trail version?

SaMAlex · « **Reply #53 on:** May 08, 2009, 03:57 PM »

Sorry, I meant the bottom right.

It says "with our without gyro tabs" and it looks like the frame has a 4 letter name

fugazi · « **Reply #54 on:** May 08, 2009, 04:02 PM »

Don't know what it's called in that add, but is that not the kris bennett frame? Maybe they had a load left & flogged them under another name?

Yeah, I thought it looked like a bennett. I had one and didnt like it at all. The droopy top tube wishbone put me right off.

darkersomeday · « **Reply #56 on:** May 08, 2009, 04:20 PM »

tis indeed the bennett frame,

they've got it down as the "F.K.A.B" frame,

probs after bennett left, "formerly kris A bennett" maybe??

it might even stand for "fook kris asshole bennett"

ask moeller if he'll let us know?

I know what you mean, it's not the best looking frame they did! The frame he did with volume, the flatline or something didn't look that great either.

teamsano · « **Reply #58 on:** May 08, 2009, 07:45 PM »

the bennett was the only 90's s+m frame that was worth having.

Really? I remember a bennett frame getting past round about 4/5 people before it found a home when they came out, nobody got on with it, and the kid what did said it rode great compared to his huffy!

"Formaly Known As Bennett".

My Bennett felt like it was way heavy, had the lazy-lob wish bone, and chainstays that were lower than the wheelnut. I didnt like it at all. My PBR had a better top tube, but it still wasnt very nice. Those to frames drove me to use a challenger for a while. I should have stuck with a normal dirtbike!

(Gogo, surely youd put a Over sized challenger or Dirtbike above a Bennett?)

Gary72 · « **Reply #62 on:** May 08, 2009, 09:18 PM »

Think winstanleys had a 18 inch PBR frame aswell. Also sure I read about a SAF Short as F*** with a short TT.
enjoyed this thread, maybe one day will have a S&M bike.

There were some short TT HAFs. Totally the same frame but aimed more at flatland. My Chrome HAF is one of them (although the shop that had it didnt know). Its got an 18" toptube!

well perhaps an o.s. challenger, did they do one? the menstrual rode ok, but was made of tinfoil.

i think as 'fit for purpose', the bennett seemed the only decent frame they done, decent tt length and angles. dirt bikes lasted me about 6 months each and the pbr and black bike were terrible in my humble opinion. although i cant speak for flatlanders who used sabbath frames.

the rv frames or widowmaker would be ok too, much like the only standard i'd own would be a cruiser or race bike.

mid 90's bikes really bug my arse, too much confusion over weight/angles etc. i fuggin hate mid school.

hatred? confusion? i dont remember anybody whining about weight back then,and most bikes had good workable angles.
so if you hate mid school so much then whats so much better?

teamsano · « **Reply #67 on:** May 10, 2009, 12:18 PM »

not condors anyway.

condor96 · « **Reply #68 on:** May 10, 2009, 07:40 PM »

you are right,condors are the most terrible bike to hit ramps with.......................

thecaptain · « **Reply #69 on:** May 13, 2009, 09:10 PM »

Back to the topic, what about the K-9 D-Zine frames? only 25 were ever made, first S&m frame made, anyone know where those are hiding themselves?

fugazi · « **Reply #70 on:** May 13, 2009, 09:33 PM »

Don't really know a lot about it, looks similar to a maddog though, pic half inched from another site

thecaptain · « **Reply #71 on:** May 14, 2009, 04:00 PM »

i wonder how much those K-9 frames go for now.....................

I think that one in the photo is the ONLY one left. Its in a shop somewhere in the states but its not for sale.
Its the only one I know about.

kev-s · « **Reply #73 on:** May 14, 2009, 04:18 PM »

does chris moeller not have one? if not its a shame if i owned that one id give it to him

SaMAlex · « **Reply #74 on:** May 14, 2009, 04:20 PM »

I dont think Moeller has one. They were sort of the first 25 Mad Dogs, but they made a few changes and renamed them.
That photo is the ONLY photo of one Ive ever seen
