My latest build

Dirt Disciple
A christmas present for the missus - plan was to invite her over today and get her to build a bike as she doesn't know how to and wants to get more involved.

I said that I'd get her a bike next year - and that she can help build the one that i've had in bits for the last month - plan is to have her turn up and say "Happy Christmas" as she see's this!!
