What do you think? They look really sweet...The top tube is a little shorter than what I want, but I think I can deal. I was really happy with the quality of my Titan, but couldn't deal with the long chainstays and a couple of other geometry issues. The Loki seems like a better option. How'z it ride? What fork are you running on it? I would use a manitou black I have that a friend is using at first, but then change it to a pike when funding is available. Pictures too please.

DOC is what I would really like, geometry wise and such, but the money just isn't there.

Sounds sick, are you getting it all brand new through SC or do you have some of it?

Everything will be new except the fork, the other stuff will be bought through SC and the wheels I'll get from Jenson. Thinking about it I might spring for a new Stance Static

[Handlebarsfsr]

i have an 04 soul hardline, seems like its exactly what your lookin for, but they dont make it anymore.

 

[scabrider]

well sorry, please don't shoot me...

 

[pdirt]

Ahhh yeah.. love mine.. like it better than my 04 Titan for running 24's... litlle bit higher BB and shorter stays.. I like the short TT. I race BMX on it, DJ, and hit skateparks... I totally dig it...

this is an old pic, I have Arrow Launch tires, and Odyssey Pedals now... that fork is a DJ1/Z1 hybrid thing we made. It has HSCV carts from an old 2001 Z1 CR.

BTW- I advise you to NOT get a static... please dude, for your safety don't do it.
