jeffwarwick Posted August 4, 2010 Report Share Posted August 4, 2010 Can anyone help me? I need a new trials frame for my B40. Looking at a Faber Mk3 but am being put off by reports that Faber can be difficult to deal with. I'm near to Preston, Lancashire. I believe there is a frame make by the name of Roger Heap. Has anyone got his details? Jeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woody Posted August 4, 2010 Report Share Posted August 4, 2010 I've just got a Faber MK3, took a few months but have it now. Not so much difficult to deal with, just a bit slow and communication not the best. You have to keep chasing them. Haven't fitted it up yet, that's a way off, but looks a nice job. More faithful copy of a C15 frame (minus the swan neck and bolt on subframe of course) Looks a lot neater than the previous versions with no bottom frame tubes.

trialsrfun Posted August 4, 2010 Report Share Posted August 4, 2010 I have seen James frames that Roger has made but not sure if he has built any for the BSA engine, Paul Jackson has made frames to suit the BSA C15/B40. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

old trials fanatic Posted October 29, 2010 Report Share Posted October 29, 2010 Had a Faber frame and all i can say is it was DEFINATELY built down to the price. Seen the Mills frames and they are the complete opposite. if i was building a B40 again i'd definately go for the Mills option. Took me ages to modify the Faber frame to make it acceptable. To me anyway 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
