Here is is peeps- the 04 DeSalvo prototype trials frame- the production version will pretty much be this... only with a paint color of the buyer's choice and clear coated decals- just little finishing touches like that- but this is pretty much it:
Fresh out the box-
Rear Triangle:
Killer good photograph of the frame rear view:
The built bike:
Cool:
Front view of frame:
Just got back from a quick ride on it. UPS didnt show until 8pm so i got a late start building it up. My first impression was the same as Jeremy's: "Wow, this thing is stiff..." i didnt get much done considering my neighborhood within five miles in every direction is covered in snow and ice... plus i froze my boobs off fast. i can say this thing is stiff as heck though. stiffer than xtp? i cant say yet but it is at least as stiff as the xtp but rides differently obviously because it is steel. if my wrist isnt being a dirty hooker tomorrow i will try to get out and ride it a little more. more in depth review of it will come later. please feel free to ask any questions about it, i will do my best to answer them.
this frame will be about 750 USD with the fsa bb included.
