Thank you sir! Keep up the good work!

Hi Lloyd.

56 Pine Cone will be out of stock for the rest of the year. We do have the two other colors in stock. We only produce one run of Flaanimals per year and when they’re gone they’re gone for a long time unfortunately.

Thanks!

Barney,

You are correct. Any Flaanimal with a T47BB is a 4.1. We didn’t update the TT graphics because it was a minor spec change. Sorry for the confusion!

Stephen

Meredith,

We do have a select few 48cm and 50cm Flaanimal 4.0 in stock in Pine Cone (Brown), Orange (Chocolate Creamsicle), and Bleaux Deaux (Blue). 4.0 are almost exactly identical to 4.1 frames except for having a standard BSA 68mm threaded bottom bracket instead of T47 68mm threaded bottom brackets. The BB spec change won’t affect 95% of riders.

Thanks!

Lowell,

Thanks for the note. Spork 2.0 does work perfectly with the Tubus Duo. We’ve tested it with the offset eyelet kit and it mounts up very nicely. Photos:

Unfortunately we don’t have any plans to offer a 50cm Traildonkey. There hasn’t been enough demand in that size. We would be happy to take a look at your fit to see if a 52cm might fit you. A number of people have assumed the 52 wouldn’t fit when in fact it was easy to get them set up correctly on it.

Blue threadlocker is suitable and I have it on my personal bike. It is not required and we have not noted any incidence of derailleur hanger bolts coming lose. 7nm is adequate torque for the hanger bolt.

Howdy! Here is some general sizing advice. This works for about 95% of our riders with the exceptions being unique proportions or range of motion issues:

52cm
5’4”-5’6”

54cm
5’6”-5’9”

56cm
5’9”-6’0”

58cm
6’0”-6’2”

Dong,

Here is a great place to start for custom paint information:

The paint layout that you mentioned would cost $750.

It used to be that the matte finish was a bit more durable but the gloss was easier to clean. Our painted has switched to a more durable gloss clear though and the two seem very similar in durability.

Stephen,

You do need a clamp for the FD. It is not built into the frame. The clamp should be a 31.8

We don’t build the clamp onto the frame because we want the frame to remain nice and clean for 1x drivetrain users

Thanks!
