Not yet complete, but pretty close!

Not to everyone's taste, but wanted to do something a little different than my other 'period' Turner's...

Really like the tyre choice here. And that 1x11? setup also makes sense.

Cheers Tom!

It's a 1x12 11-50 drivetrain, Tim! That cassette is a monster, took me a while getting used to the ridiculous size! Really looking forward to riding it! And imo, those tyres are some of the coolest ever made! Pycho's were always my favourite rubber!

Decided to try these rigid Boyz, as I need to service the Bombers. Must admit, I really like 'em!
