That frame's definitly sic but I'm sick of seeing true swing arm frames that still only pull 6 inches of travel. That's why I like the Lahaye racing or whatever that companies called swing arm.

I saw the Lahaye bike and it is pretty cool I have to admit, however, how functional is it handling wise? If you have too much suspension it might not handle well. Has anyone ridden the Lahaye bike yet?

if the rear bottem on that lahaye ur screwed because the ground clearance on the bike is 10 inches so ur frame will be eating dirt befor it will completely bottem and most likely u will be eating dirt too.

I was thinking how I always land on my back tire when I'm trying to clear big doubles or hittin whoops really fast so I thought the 12 inches sure would help in that department

believe it or not it does have near 12 inches of travel. i recently tested a similar prototype for sano witht he same shock and spring weight rate. it was so awesome. i rode it with stock forks with 1 " longer fork legs and stiffer springs. iw ish i tested it with bombshells. the bike handles better and is almost impossible to bottom out. it sags 2 inches like a real bike!

i saw lahaye racing at a local race and 2/2 of their riders went down. the bike was amazingly fast and sooo loud!

oh and the 12" of travel doesnt mean the shock is 12". it has 12 inches of up travel to the rear fender. when i rode this setup the back wheel scraped the pipe and touched the rear seat mount.

I really don't think Red Baron is bluffing. We'll see when people start showing up to races with their Red Baron Factory Frame. Then you will want one too, cuz you know they look sick. I am saving up my money to buy one asap.

Hey Hunkin, you f*gboy I called your bluff.

Red Baron is the only company exclusively selling these frames. Sanomx doesn't have them nor can they get them. Only frame they might have like it is a prototype. But as far as Sano selling them, it is not going to happen. Anyone interested in buying one of these bad boys go to www.redbaronracing.net

I just ordered mine!

Get your facts straight Hunkin, you don't know what the $uck you're talking about.

they just link back to the same page that i'm currently on, no matter which page it is. does that make sense?

They haven't released the forks and stuff to the public yet. They are finishing up the testing first. That is why the picture doesn't come up yet. I found all this out when I called and ordered all my parts including that sick frame. Later

whatever. times change buddy. they just bought the exclusive to them. how can you say sano doesnt have them? the owner is running one as we speak? dont make anyone look bad, especially me or red baron. just calm down! geeez. the frame isnt the best out there right now anyways and you will hear why. give me 1 hour on that sucker and i guarantee it will be in more than 2 pieces!

oh and lets see... http://www.bombshellparts.com/index2.html >>xr 50>>> bomber frame, oh wow! there are sano graphics on them.

anyways sano is looking forward to the upcoming race on the 30th and would liek to thank red baron racing for their cooperation
