its a diamondback coil ex frame. had to get the frame after i crashed my i drive and then snapped my i drive. couldnt really afford much at the time. have since snapped the rear swingarm and had to replace it, it used to be a much better looking black (matched front). the only stock parts are seatpost and headset (internal). its a 16'' frame, nice and easy to throw around! got da bomb rims on deore hubs, hayes hfx 9 brakes (now all black). kona DH bars, planet x stem. marzocchi mx comps. fox float (recently changed from a vanilla). blackspire chain device although im running a 32t chainring! tioga fs100 tires, 2.3s. dmr v8s, truvativ hussefelt cranks. truvativ gigapipe bb.

does anyone have ano red stanchion caps to go on my forks? i miss them so much and cant buy them anywhere, i have bought one black one but theyre £8 so i havent got round to replacing the other. let me know if you have some

cheers

i managed to get the spacers and seat platics red using vinyl dye.
its similar to paint in application but penetrates the plastic and bonds with it somehow
has been very durable so far :cool:
gub parts are great too
 
My trek weighs 14lbs less than that :shock:

like the nokon and the shock....and also the red jockey wheel :cool:

looking good cyfa :cool:
 
thank you :D :D
yes it is heavy, very heavy (and your trek is very light!)

i can throw it around easy enough so its no bother but of course i wouldnt mind lightening it up, but like i said, no big issue of mine.

oh the red jockey wheel (here i go again :LOL: )
