Heller Bikes Shagamaw GX1 27.5+ Bike
« on: February 27, 2016, 10:37:36 AM »
Trying to determine what open mold frame the Heller Shagamaw is based on.  Looks a lot like the FM-020 from Dengfu, but doesn't have that high drive side chainstay. 

Anyone able to track down which specific frame this is?

Might get a bit better feedback if you provided a link or some images. First time I've heard/read the name Heller Shagamaw on the forums

This is looking really good to me.  Particularly for the price.  $2,599 for a 1x11 setup w/ 130mm fork.  I was thinking about getting a set of 650B+ wheels for my -057 but for about 3x the cost of a set of 27.5 carbon wheels I could get a new bike :).

I just posted another topic on this.  Looks like a unique frame for the Heller Shagamaw.  Not sure if this frame can be found from any of the regular Chinese vendors.  If I could be, I'd be interested also, even though I'm not really ready to build another bike.

Wow, that's a huge jump between sizes. Small has a 585mm effective top tube, and medium jumps up to 616.5... whereas the Scale-derived geometry bikes has the medium at 600mm.

Otherwise, does look like a cool bike.

I know, according to my height of 5'-11", I would fit on their medium frame.  Normally I would always choose a large frame.

None that I know of, still think it's a nice bike and at an amazingly low price.
