scottt Posted February 27, 2008 Report Share Posted February 27, 2008 (edited) I'm guessing you mean the 175 version, basically the steering head angle is slightly steeper, the frame tubes under the engine arent there, the shock are laid down more and the rear loop for the mudguard isnt there either, thats more or less it. This is what the 175 version looks like Edited February 27, 2008 by ScottT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest majestyman340 Posted February 28, 2008 Report Share Posted February 28, 2008 There was someone riding the Phil King a while back on a bike that seemed to have a Yam TY175 type chassis, but looked like it had some sort of tricked out monoshock motor fitted. Anyone know who the rider was, and any info about the bike? MM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woody Posted February 28, 2008 Report Share Posted February 28, 2008 That was Chris Koch riding the bike that Jon Bliss built. It's Jon's own frame, very light, designed to take twin shocks, modern forks and a Yam mono engine. It's apparently allowed as it qualifies as a twinshock at original manufacture. So a precedent has been set, the barn door is open, the horse is away and the race is on to see what other enterprising people will present as twinshock bikes over the next season or so.

Although they take the same engine the mini frame is physically smaller. On the bigger 175 frame the bottom of the front downtubes bend backwards towards the engine. On the Mini frame they are straight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
