Modern take on a retro build Mountaincycle Moho

[mountainloz]

I have cut the steerer,
I could maybe take a thin slice off as the hope stem stack isn't as high as the syncros (I had to add a spacer)
But I do like it highish

my Ti bolts and red Aluminium washers have arrived for the Brake Therapy mount, blanking the right hand stay, and mounting the caliper too
here's some photos of the brake therapy mount,
its a very useful bit of kit, i recommend it to anyone
