I wanted a bike for a couple of loops we do which involve road, bridleway, footpaths and trails but don't have the funds for a cyclocross or decent hybrid so decided to reinvigorate a very tatty Dimandback Apex I picked up off eBay.

Has a mix of XT, LX, STX RC and some budget bits as well.
Rides great and has taken some reasonable hammer.

Im aware tghis will not be a lot of people's cup of tea but thought I'd post some pics for feedback.

I'm after a saddle to match by the way if anyone has one?
