Is adjustable travel like the fork or will it come set at a particular amount?


I like white!

Looks nice, I'd prefer a different colour though.

If memory serves, travel's 130mm. Not adjustable, otherwise shortening the fork would have no useful effect ;-)
130?

Don't think I need that much

Except for the funky shock mounting, the rear of it looks very reminiscent of the Edge Bikes design. Of course that did something else with its axle path, but the rear triangle and linkages look a bit similar.

Except that the Edge didn't have the shock mounted between the two linkages.

As I said, "Except for the funky shock mounting...". :-) It just looks similar, I wasn't claiming it actually did anything similar, suspensionwise. I think it's the bit of the rear triangle that links the chain and seat stays that does it.

yes but the between linkages was considered by edge both in front of the seat tube and behind

theres no such think as a new idea

Those rear chainstay to seatstay strut designs always remind me, somewhat unfairly, of old Raleigh Activators and even older Cannondale ESTs.

Nice to finally see a Pace susser though. Only 12 years since Adrian first told me 'Maybe next year'. Just as well I didn't wait and bought an S-Works FSR some months later.

My post a few up is now defunct, but I can't edit it, where's the button thingy gone :-(

Thanks for the pointer anyway, Nick!

I think the bearings look rather small... Anyone know if they're needle bearings, cartridge ball bearings or bushes?

Once upon a time, Pace frames looked different to everyone elses! :P
Show/hide user stats
They're some species of bearing. They don't appear to be substantially smaller than anyone else's.

Any idea on weight Mike?
Show/hide user stats
There will be some weight.

:-)

No, none at all. Whatever a 303 weighs plus a pound or so, probably ;-)
Show/hide user stats
iirc the 303 is just over 4lbs.

have edge bikes gone bust now?
