Starting a thread for my on going project and new baby!!

Here is a pic from when I picked it up

Starting stripping it down now , All good so far !!

No dents or cracks
Bushes in great order!!
BB threads clean

What is next

Have a play with the rear shock, it has damping but cannot get it to be any stiffer!!

Niiiice !

I really need to get mine sorted. And then rag the hell out of it for being such a pain in the derriere!

Are you keeping the Z1's on it? Im using junior ts on mine

Whats the orange hanging up??

daj · Aug 19, 2009

Yep plan to keep the z1`s for now ....Hopefully make a lighter build with some travel?

The Orange was a C16R frame and fork thats just gone to a new owner ...Leaving me a sole GT family !!

Hmmm odd pedals?

Just need some Azonic Double Wall bars, and a World Force stem now.

And some chunky tyres...

The wheels are the first ones I grabbed to stand it on!!

Not much to report

All bushes greased and tight enough

Bombers serviced

Still deciding if you run triple rings up front or back to original AC crank etc :?

Quality forks... Bombers live forever!

My LTS DH is progressing slowly -

Clockwork build all go, picking up bits for the LTS as I meet them.

Just bought a shock for the back - Fox for a schwinn, gonna try and thread a trunnion mount on it...

i really like that, that was one of the bikes i wanted bitd.
out of interest? what length are the bombers axle-crown and how much travel they got..? i'm thinkin 100mm but can't remember

fingers · Sep 4, 2009

The bombers are 4"/100mm IIRC. Not sure length.

Daj - Its a DHer, go for a single ring setup!!!
