3 Frames, one set of components

Here are three different frames, all built using the same components (other than BBs and seatposts), and all riden in the last three weeks! The newest is the GT LTS-3, whih was built up about 10 minutes ago! My first full susser, and so far I'm quite impressed.

Next oldest is the Klein Attitude. It had a suspect frame which is why I replaced it, though it turns out the frame is ok, and the creak/click noise was the chainring bolts.

Finally the DMR Trailstar. I had this frame for years and built the parts up over time.

Here are the pics!

I must say that GT is a nice-looking bike, but is that the Klein after its operation? It still has a replaceable drop-out? They must be pretty good welders where you sent it to.

And the things people will do to get an excuse to go out riding, I don't know!
 
Cheers for the comments. It is a nice kitchen, however the people that installed it (before I bought the house) decided that the corner cupboard didn't need to open properly. Not helpful!

I hope the wife does come on here and see that I took a pic of the bike in the kitchen. She'd kill me :lol:

The pic of the Klein is pre-surgery. I think that was the day I first built it. I'll see if I can get an "after" photo of it.
 
Nice. Quite a good idea to component share. But I did it for 6 months on two Merlin's and it did my heasd in in the end and I flogged one frame. Wish I'd bought more components instead. :oops:
