Pretty unimaginative rebuild using the standard kit, but it's what I wanted so I'm happy. No cracks (repeat, no cracks) but as Im planning on using it and abusing it, we will see how long that lasts for ;-)

Thanks to all those who helped. You know who you are.

But special mention to Elite504 for parts and more importantly, lots of useful info and advice.

Nice one :cool: and somehow that bike wears those tyres well :) first time I've ever seen it.
 
Very nice! I run that shade of Wildslippers on my Pace. really hard wearing considering! Giver her some hammer! Nice!
 
Ha, downhill in every direction mate!! :p

Still need a biscuit rear wildgripper, but you don't notice much the fact that it's currently an orange one!
 
Very nice.

What size frame is it ?

That's some length of headtube :shock:

My old one was an 18", had a much shorter headtube,

Mine was sound but had been repaired at the chainstays, both sets of forks had duff elastormers so i replaced these with Wings springs then hammered it round a couple of trail centres :twisted: , was a dream bike from BITD but had to go in the end, glad i got to own and ride one :cool:
