Re:
Thought about doing another build thread, but really this is basically a transplant.
The Green X frame and stem have gone down the road. I found it just a bit too small even with the reach and this came a long on fleabay for an absolute steal:
It sized out perfectly so I flipped most of the build kit over to the new frame. Only few cosmetic changes were done. I finished it this time last year and enjoyed it for most of the summer. Here's the go setup ...
I just gave it as good service and tidy up. It'll go away for a bit now ... new toys for the spring ... always new toys. The X frames are a fav of mine. They actually ride really well and always get a lot of attention on the trail.
