Greetings.
Having moved house during the last year (again) and with various 'issues' that have needed my attention this has taken far to long to get to, however with some free time over Easter I intend on at least getting one ride on this before I move again.
At the moment I am still un able to build her as I would dream, but am getting very happy with what's on her. Would still love a set of manitou millenium forks but one can dream eh?!
Anyway, this evening I have finally got around to sorting the forks out. From the pictures I have already posted you can tell the front was riding a bit high and splayed (180mm forks with a TALL crown) so a hour with a file (not a hack saw) I shortened a blue (firm) spring done and fitted some pink duh duh spacers below the top out spring in the left leg and now I have a set of domains that have around 138mm travel.
It looks so much better already however I haven't properly tester her, maybe tomorrow if I can. Hoping to cut down the steer tube, fit a hope head doctor (such a stupid thing they are!) and then I think she is getting there.
I do have some pic's from working on the forks but the battery is dead in the camera so they shall have to wait. Hopefully pics of her more or less complete will be ready for the weekend.
Safe trails
