Pretty cool that every frame is completely hand welded. These things are not going to be cheap, that’s for sure!

Anything special on that frame? Looks more like mix of old RM and YZ frames from 2-stroke era?

I mean shit I get they are trying to build hype but this is annoying as hell, wait another 2 weeks to see some obscure shots of the engine next, they dont even show you the subframe and swingarm in the "chassis" video. 

Frame looks good though, peg mounting area looks linteresting, lots of stuff machined from billet so going to be an expensive bike im guessing. Not sure how many aluminum spine frames there are if any currently? Most aluminum frames would be considered perimiter frames right?

Those could be cast on the production frame. I'm watching the video now, so maybe they say something about the production frame being billet. But I wouldn't be surprised if they were just showing the prototyping phase since they are starting at the beginning of development. 

Yeah your right they do look like they could be cast on the end photo, that would certainly make more sense and be in line with all the other aluminum frames.The footpeg mount area looks like it could have a lot of room for adjustments, large surface area there for just a peg mount.

Similar to this 06 yz250f frame it's called semi perimeter

Glad I got myself all excited for this. Just show the bike already. I do like that they hired Bobby Hewitt, always been a fan of that guy.

I'm not "mad" but come on. I get that they're trying to build anticipation and all, but this is a little silly. If they would have dropped these videos throughout the day, rather than "over the coming weeks" it would have been much more effective IMO.

I was hoping someone would do a semi-perimeter aluminum frame again. It always seemed like the best design (to my untrained eye) for weight and flex/rigidity.

What they should have done, is invited as many media as possible, to an on-site location, in England. Given them access to the bikes for a limited time, say 2 days, as well as access to bikes from all the other manufacturers, so they could compare them.

Then, they could make as many videos etc as they wanted, testing things like power, suspension, definitely not battery life (because no one cares about that)... obviously all the videos would be embargoed to a certain date. Once those videos have come out, they could have invited the person who ordered the first bike, who may or may not be paid by the company, to also test it before he received the first bike off the line, having visited the factory and not taken any photos of any other bikes being produced.

I think this would be a much better way...

Man, tough crowd. The most interesting thing to me: Dave Arnold is involved. Can't wait to see it all.

Did anybody else see the pic on Facebook.  Was pic of a MX bike with Triumph on it.  Looked black to me, I clicked on it and came up no longer available.  Going back to see if I can find it.

One of those pics showed up on Facebook last night for a nano second and was removed.  One of these days we will get a real peak.
