More info:

Track geometry with high BB drop. Thicker tube sets with butting only where it needs to be to keep the bike extremely strong. MTB style welds to keep your bike in one pc. Stainless steel dropouts so you can make wheel removal easy. Longer and wider rear end for better tire clearance. No bottle cage holes. No brake guides. Yes rear brake bridge for caliper. Beautiful aero seat tube. Strong easy to use aero seat clamp system. Max tire size 28 x 700c tire.

What's with the blatant ad posting?

they were all like that....

"Longer and wider rear end for better tire clearance".... <--- there was a whole thread practically dedicated to this topic.

What happened?

farts

so u expect them to give u a new model for your troubles?...

i think it speaks for itself how the design of their frames have changed almost every year.

good luck

I just saw this on their website and was hoping to see how people felt about it, but i guess not...

Personally i got excited(love the look of aero frames) but i am wary about leader's history

Howcum this gets removed, when there's a gazillion Bikesdirect threads?

It was removed by LeaderBikes. Maybe he doesn't feel like dealing with the fallout from the 721 track fork end debacle.

There was a debacle on BFSSFG? And I missed it?!? Damn.

Look at how tight the rear clearance is, then look at how far into the track fork end the wheel is. Yeah...

There was another thread with people complaining about/discussing this issue, but I can't find it.

It would be nice if we had a color chart for the 725tr,I went to the site and it had a list of all the colors but no pics. This is from the site.

If you click on the color option, it shows a sample of the color in the shape of the frame (I had the same thought).

Oh...OK that makes sense,Thanks.

Yeah, no prob, I'm trying to decide on red or green.

I think Im gonna get it in white with no decals,hit up Price Point for a white stem/bars/post/seat/tires/wrap,and get some white Vee's with whit formula hubs. All whited out,as opposed to my all blacked out ride now.

funny. so they fixed the dropouts i guess... *goes to search for the 721 thread*

I think they should have stuck with the original 31:
* Banana Nut Fudge
* Black Walnut
* Burgundy Cherry
* Butterscotch Ribbon
* Cherry Macaroon
* Chocolate
* Chocolate Almond
* Chocolate Chip
* Chocolate Fudge
* Chocolate Mint
* Chocolate Ribbon
* Coffee
* Coffee Candy
* Date Nut
* Egg Nog
* French Vanilla
* Green Mint Stick
* Lemon Crisp
* Lemon Custard
* Lemon Sherbet
* Maple Nut
* Orange Sherbet
* Peach
* Peppermint Fudge Ribbon
* Peppermint Stick
* Pineapple Sherbet
* Raspberry Sherbet
* Rocky Road
* Strawberry
* Vanilla
* Vanilla Burnt Almond

Also, all white = ghost bike = don't mess with ghosts.

Yeah last thing I want is for my bike to be covered in candles and flowers when I come out from class haha

Can I have free frame?

I'll drink to that.

Because this thread doesn't follow the right format. It should have been something like,

"Hey guys, anyone know anything about Leader frames? I've been looking for a new bike and these seem so perfect for what I need. High quality aluminum with double butted tubing, it sure seems like this is the best bike on the market. They're also going for such a good price that at this price point they can't be beat."

Then apparently you can spam the forums to your heart's content

All those colors and no decent orange? Bah!

can't find the new frames on their site. Can someone link to it for me?
