I thinks the colours actually go well with the frame, and there werent even chosen for that frame.

Looks good with those colours!

Cant wait to get my RTS rolling...

Yea, 96 decals as per mine.Lovely, especially the red spring in the rear shock, never seen before  Just yet to make my mind up about the forks  :?   But, nice and different.Well done Matt :shock:

I was going to use my Z3's but bought these a month or so ago, and when i started building it last nite, i thought they looked quite good, have yet ot test them to see if they match the rear action

Very Good

changed the forks to some Z2 X-flys, and put on a black seatpost and silver marin stem (identical to the stem on other RTS-3 so same reach) , along with Disc Drive pro, and Spinergy from original build

:shock: That looks lovely ... Really really

I find that those forks lift the front too much . the bike looses its racing look .

what are you doing with the other forks , selling them ? :roll:

thats more to do with the level of the ground, doesnt feel to bad when riding it

that looks absolutely fantastic. i really want an rts. the first one i ever saw in the flesh had a tri spoke front and disk drive rear wheel and i was smitten back then
