Maybe I did not make myself clear but the standard blade that comes with a bare aluminum frame is the same part number as the sp model frame so how are they different?


Genuinely curious about this as I have never seen it anywhere about an sp specific frame
Story I heard (i.e. read it in a magazine / sales blurb) was they messed with the strength of the frame for the SP and it was that good (more flex / better feel) that the same frame mod also used for the "standard" Blade. So it's different to 2013 bike but same on 2014 standard model and the SP.

SP obviously has different subframe.

It could well be, i havent looked at '14 stats, but the current HUK blade they have been testing this year was using the standard 12 frame.

Strange that. I know Birdy thinks a lot of Stuart, but apart form Macau, he hasnt really achieved his potential in BSB I dont think.

Im really surprised st Shaun Muir for not giving Bridewell another year, I thought he matured a lot this year.

Not really a fan of Ellison, dont know why - just doesnt seem to quite want it in the way Shakey/Kiyo/Brooks do maybe ?

Balls, so bridewell's got the boot from milwaukee then?

Maybe a little to much competion for brookes?

Hopefully he'll end up with ellison or maybe the tyco aprillia if he fits.

Not confirmed, but his twitter feed doesnt seem to suggest its likely for 2015....

Oh, he got the boot did he?

Maybe he signed with another team before Muir had the chance to resign TB for 2015!

Bingo! It'll be interesting to see if TAS can actually build a decent bike, Tommy will certainly help with the BMW anyway.
