My 1995 Blizzard patiently waiting for the day I decide to build it up again. Come to think of it I’ve owned it for 30 years now, over half my lifetime.

There has never been a more worthy frame for red tyres than a Ti-Bolt, simply beautiful 🙌

The build wasn’t so interesting so I’ll cut straight to the finished bike… I used a mix of tried and trusted parts that I had to hand, nothing too fancy since I’ll be locking it up around town. I already had a set of wheels with a filed down rear axle that I’d previously used for a single speed...

Started the build today, went with 26” wheels, got some Maxxis tyres that’ll compliment the green with the big yellow logos. Lots of rust in the BB shell but the threads are still good after a clean up 😊

Even though it always feels wrong going into work on the weekend it was well worth it. A big vice and a little determination freed the seatpost fairly easily, also took the opportunity to straighten the rear mech tab. Noticed that the colour is even cooler than I first thought, looks like it...

Another one of those spontaneous buys, standing there on its fork tips amongst the waifs and strays of a local recycling depot I was mesmerised the greener than green colour. Bought its freedom for a princely £30. My first proper mtb was a 1993 Palisades Trail in that stunning matte grey and...

Whoops non-drive side fail 😂

Love this project, the story, the persistence and the attention to detail. And the bike itself is simply amazing, both the original and your tribute 😎 I wonder if you should strip the paint off the lower rear drop-out, as on Shaun’s? Maybe you’ve already thought about that?

Oh yes!! 😎...

Wow another Intense beauty! 😎 Love M1s in team colours, all that surface area lends itself to custom paint schemes. So I guess DBS was yet another manufacturer who rebranded M1s for their downhill riders?

I’ve got these NOS grips that would look perfect on your Uzzi £25 plus shipping from Sweden

Reduced to £20 In the UK over Christmas so postage will obviously be cheaper if you live there (and no import bs either)

No problem, thanks for looking, get in touch if it turns up when you’ve checked your storage 😊

Interesting I had no idea that there were two different shades/names. Brown anodised sounds nice too, always liked the look of King stuff in brown, but I imagine that it'd only work with certain frame colours.

Great stuff, thanks!

That must have looked a treat, a white frame with the dusty blue 😎 Had a Superlight myself, fun bike, sorry to hear yours got stolen.

Love the way you've used an older paint scheme and decals, looks great especially with the Deemax wheels. I also had one of these around 15 years ago (in red)

Wow! Looks amazing! :cool:

Thanks for your reply, I did actually get in touch with Hope after not being able to find anything about this colour online, I wondered if they were one-offs or something. It was them that told me that the colour was a limited edition called Gunsmoke from around 10 years ago (which matches the...
