'98 Specialized Ground Control FSR (Updated 07/13)

hmm should probably get some pics up of how it looks now.
took the magura off as it wasnt stopping me (think it needs a service and is now up for sale £15 inc postage if anyone wants it)

i'd run it with discs but still can't get my hands on the specialized disc mount for these early FSRs (can't afford a brake therapy one)
 
A friend of mine had the EXACT same bike as this. I remember his excitement when he got it on finance for a lot of money! He stuck Magura rim brakes on and it was a brilliant all rounder, SOO light as well :cool:
 
quick update on this one.

XT M760 running gear & front V brake, LX M570 wheels (can't remember the rims off the top of my head)
everything else is LX M560 except the cranks which are some cheap truvativs.

generally a bit of a mish mash of parts, but the main thing is the way it rides which is AWESOME!!!! ;)
 
:) almost got mine to a point where i can finish it! (just need some goddamn wheels) and i'm off! :)

looking forward to taking it out on the downs for some muddy behaviour!!!

liking this one, looks well used and loved!
 
standard rockshox deluxe.

keep trying to get a better one, but it's supprisingly hard to find and win an auction for a 165mm i2i shock on ebay lol. (at least one that i can afford)
