Ha, short answer – no.
Long answer, I have been busy getting the zaskar and backwoods finished off really. I have had so little time in the shed this year it’s been hard getting anything done and the list of jobs is getting ever longer. I have several forks and shocks to service, hubs that need bearings, wheels that need truing and a parts bin that’s overflowing with cack I don’t need.
Now we are in the period of seemingly eternal darkness my opportunity for riding is even further diminished so I hope to get some time at the workbench and have a good clear out.
I have found a suitable seatpost at last, I should be picking that up tonight. Other than that all the parts are in I think. Carrying most of the XTR 95x kit over from the last frame but with a few tweaks. I have a tidy set of Bomber Z1s (that need a service) which may end up here but more likely the lightweight RSTs will be back. I do intend to get this one rolling next…. unless the Pace F8 frame comes back from Dan sooner than expected, that one’s waiting to be built too.
My target is Mayhem next year, hopefully it will be with me then. Did a round in 2017 on the old HH and the other laps on my B17. Plan for next year is to get laps in on this one, the Pace and I think the Sintesi deserves a crack at it too.
The other problem is I have run out of floor space so need to address storage issues too. My 5x floor rack is full, my wall rack is loaded, theres my Zaskar and the boys DS1 blocking the doorway and I currently have the HHKK and the MV frames dangling from the rafters– once they are built I can’t do that so will need to find space somewhere. And the Pace F8 frame is with Dan being finished off, once that’s back and built I need to find a home for that too.
Time for a bigger shed!
