I thought it was probably about time. Fill yer boots. Upload your pics. Ask your questions. And that.

We love our frames, but we’re always keen to see what people who’ve bought them think. Chain Reaction Cycles have a reviews database, and we’re starting to get some feedback on there.

Heres the Blue Pig reviews – we were sorry a few slightly ropey welded frames got out in the first batch, but from feedback we’ve got that nailed now – if anyone’s unhappy, get in touch.

And here’s the mmmbop reviews – all sounding positive.

If you’ve got a Ragley product and want to give feedback, then please add it to one of the Ragley products on this page (wherever you bought it from!).

Wideopenmag is a cool online magazine that has an unhealthy amount of Ragley in it this month. So, thanks to the wonder of something or other, we can bring you a couple of the features here…

Interview with Brant

Blue Pig review

Yeah, OK, so we didn’t win. BUT! The Blue Pig got a glorious 2nd place to Orange’s Blood in the “Best New Bike” class, beating Specialized Epic Marathon – that’ll do us!

Additionally, 18 Bikes and Chain Reaction Cycles (both Ragley dealers) and Ed Oxley (who is one of our development riders) won their categories. So we can kind of say we sort of won overall. Probably.

Thanks to everyone that voted for us!

“A great solution if you like a big backsweep on your bars”

We featured this frame in last week’s fresh goods and here’s the complete build, with some interesting features. The 1.5inch headtube has been fitted with a DaBomb Da Rection reducer headset to accommodate the Magura Thor fork with tapered 1 1/8 / 1.5 steerer.

Our favourite instrument playing Christian 29in evangelist “Guitar Ted” has just got his sample of the Ragley Carnegie’s Bar .

We like G-Ted a lot. He likes big wheels too, though we’re still working on that one. Anyhow. We look forward to reading what he thinks of our bar when he’s got some more time spent on it.

I’m still riding mine, and they came out with me last night on two and half hours of tech riding and adventuring – including a bit where we had to form a human chain to pass bikes across a broken bridge, which itself was hidden in somewhat dense undergrowth. Even Ed last night admitted they looked “almost normal’.

Carnegie’s Bar is in stock at Hotlines, and good dealers nationwide. We’re also working on a flat version, and a flipped version should be coming soon too.

Wideopenmag is one of those new online only mags that are out there. They’ve been doing some good stuff for a while now (on issue 9 already) and so when they approached us with wanting a Blue Pig to test, we said “er, go on then”.

Having spent yesterday wondering whether anyone “got” stick-your-own-decals and alloy (not cheese) bolts – it’s good to see a positive response so far from the lads – and it also gives you a chance to see (I am sounding a bit sad now, but stick with it) the really good packaging we use to assure as far as we can that the frames arrive with you in tip top condition.

I think they want to do an interview as well – that should be interesting depending on what mood I’m in on the day.

Anyhow – it’s all here – http://wideopenmag.co.uk/news/2689/new-ragley-blue-pig-longtermer
