Re: Re:

What beautiful build, by far one of my favorites ever on this forum.

Thank you

It's a great feeling to read a comment like that considering the amount of top line builds on this site

I must get some better pictures up of the old girl, I was trying to decide if I should change any bits, but it all works just grand as it is

Re: The Manitou HT ..Update SHE RIDES!!!

I think it looks great with the wheels and tyres...not so much the yellow, think a polished atac would be better... and just can't get past a RS on a Manitou... But thats just me, nice to see being ridden and not full of cracks.

Re:

Little update on this old girl.

I have added the XTR m950 cranks and shifter/lever combo's.
I have had to use the M900 front mech due to the seat tube size, I don't think they did the M950 in the one off size the Manitou's use?

Also changed the tyres to Kevlar wall IRC's for a change, im still in 2 minds about the way they look.
