1992 Serotta T-Max

Proper bad boy bike. I love it.

Someone described my Bontrager build as "honest." I liked that a lot, and I think it certainly applies here too.

Good work my man!
 
That frame is a legend. A Serotta T max is way way high in the mtb food chain. Built by some of the best in the business and not very common. Just ride and keep this treasure.

Lovely bike. I hope you took a nice drive side shot for BoTM? ;)
 
Yeah, a DS photo is a must!

A lovely bike this.

A proper bike.

Looks fast, and cool as all hell.

Congrats man. I need some Ben Serotta action in my life one of these days...

Thanks man. Appreciate that. Yeah Ben had some great colour schemes back in the day but it looks cool and understated in black.

It’s great when you build a bike and it’s better to ride than you thought.

I’ll get the DS photo and enter it. Cheers
