Bit bored of my bikes ending up very similar

So , a update on my attempts to build stuff a bit different

Sold a few M950/2 groupsets and parts to free funds for a couple of builds.

The plan was to do a M900 build on a 93 3DV Zaskar with Spins and turquoise bits. However I’m unsure whether the frame is good enough as the other parts are mint and the frame has scratches which I feel will look odd with minty bits elsewhere. Need to have a proper think on this one. So I may try to source M900 in average condition or even go M737 parts on that one

I also have acquired a mint 96 Ink blue Zaskar which I may donor all the XTR parts from the 95 Zaskar in silver I built a week ago and then build the 95 with nice M900 bits and the turquoise bits/spins.
 
Right … been building a few

The ink is almost done. Needs a yellow Flite

The purple is long way off but going m900 or m737

The red one needs tyres as decided the Wildgrippers don’t suit so I’m going GtHadley /517 wheels with black smoke/dart

Only 1 XTR M950 part in sight (rear mech) so I’ve done well I feel. Little steps… F7C92E19-F4A0-459B-8AB2-DAA6656F5E3E.jpeg 7A9AE171-D078-49E7-B60B-6A64222E93F1.jpeg 4C3C3ED1-DCFD-4CBE-B1C6-A34F2FEB332D.jpeg 58764E1E-571C-48C4-B3EC-AADB8C06003D.jpeg
 
I think,I can honestly say I cannot relate to your problem. Let yourself go. Paint with your parts. Not paint your parts. That will get you arrested. Or at least turpentine burns.

Be original. Be you. Be free. Break the chains of convention.
