I’m overwhelmed Captaincowelly, thank you. You’re right, my bad no build thread. It all came together rather quickly. But thank you for the very kind words. I’m pretty pleased with how it turned out I must say.

Really don't see that being an issue.Unfortunately.

@raidan73 Any chance of a heads up regarding August’s theme?

Unicycles.

 

[Peachy!]

Unicycles.

What’s that then? When you’ve only got one bike?

Student bikes of course!

I could probably win that , I've got a cracking tip save I'm doing at the moment.

Might as well chuck this in this month. It all came together rather quickly so no build thread.
Tom I’Anson’s 1994 Klein Attitude Sea & Sky

a utility build with Xt m737 so it’s properly rideable without being too precious. Looks the part too I think.View attachment 553842View attachment 553843

Lovely looking bike, but where is the link to the build thread?

I’ll throw my 97 Zaskar into the fire

Compared to the bikes already posted it’s nowhere near worthy in terms of spec. However I’ve grown to really like it over the last few weeks due to its individual history (or lack of)

I had a Zaskar in 98 so they’ve always had a place in my heart and I’ve owned loads. So when this was available i couldn’t pass. It’s now completely standard even with reflectors and dork disc. Unridden condition and sold by my local shop. No idea how someone could buy it new and never ride it but here we are


I actually took it down to them (Je James) last week as I know them well and some people were working there in 97 and likely sold this new.
