IDENTITI Krisis SL frame:

Our long standing Krisis 4X has been the winning choice of UK National Champions for 6 successive years. Tweaked in 2010 to become the much praised Identiti Krisis SL, for 2011 the Identiti Krisis SL remains the UK's leading 4X frame. Weighing in at only 3.89lb's, the Identiti Krisis SL has got to be one of the lightest and fastest pure bred 4x race frames on the market today. The geometry and tubing have been refined over the years to produce perhaps the optimum combination of lightness, handling and strength for 4X. Features: 26" wheel specific, with a stability enhancing low BB height and 68.7 degree head angle. Lightweight semi cowled 10mm vertical slot dropouts with a 7075 CNC machined replaceable hanger give all the stability you'll need. Dual ovalised dowtube provides increased rigidity at the head and BB areas. Blistering performance out of the gate with our super stiff "twin box" chainstays. 7005 heat treated aluminium. Triple butted top tube and downtube. Dowtube box gusset. Super stiff "Twin box" chainstays. Cnc chainstay yoke. Cnc vertical dropouts. 26" specific. I.S. Disc brake only. 30.9mm seatpost diameter (supplied with 27.2mm shim and QR seat clamp.) For 2011 we have had added a shorter top tube and chainstay option for smaller riders. Colours: White, Red, Black, High Polished, Electric Blue or Highlighter Yellow.

But, perhaps it's best to quote a little from Dirt Magazine October 2010 - Hammered: " .Having tried countless 4X race hardtails, with most being much of a muchness, the Krisis SL felt 'right' from the first roll down the grove followed by the standard blast into work. It manuals through parked cars with...., rips through gullies and can beat most, if not all hot hatches off the lights. but what's It like on a track? The answer is simply brill, Fantastico, lovely Jublee. The geometry and sizing Is a 4X racers dream. 'Little red' is both stiff and supple all at the same time (god only knows how that's been achieved ?). It sits perfectly in the gate if you're racing, and yet is stable and confidence inspiring at speed while ripping through the loca1 woods. .Someone asked me recently about what hardtail I could recommend for racing and play. When I suggested the Krisis their response was ""yeah, but they're a bit common". That may be the case but they are popular for a reason... they're f***ing good!.. .So, the question is should you buy one? Of course you should. It's the only race frame out there that comes with such good geometry, sizing and weight at this price, and even the paint finish is as good as it gets. "
