manitou ht about there

[stevede]

just thought i would add this near complete build for people to have a look at built it over the last few weeks massive thanks to magpiegifts as ive always wanted a set of spengles and never owned a set
no matter what i couldnt seem to find a rear canti mount so i decided to sit and spend many hours making one from a slab of alloy by no means professional but considering the primitive monkey tools i own not too bad
ive had a fair few manitou frames always either cracked or a multitude of dents then i found this crack free nice one

That’s very nice! And that canti hanger is a work of art .

Stunning build.I have a Bradbury designed Tomac Buckshot Pro that is pretty much a carbon copy of this and is said to be Bradbury`s ultimate vision and development of his hardtail using Scandium and bracing around the headtube to avoid the dreaded cracking.Fantastic build,love the Cyclone cranks.
