BoTM Bike of The Month September 2025 - now taking entries

Bike of The Month
As others have said already - loads of stunners!! and it's only 3rd September. There is something else about a tribute build though. A level of passion and obsession over detail that eclipses function - so whether it wins BotM, or not - Bravo, Rambo Mambo!

A huge compliment dude. Many many thanks 🤩 I should also say that I have ridden it, although not on a huge ride, and I must say that it is nice and really comfortable @PhillB

4 September and there is no clear winner for me. Even using my criteria of:
- whether the first image blows my hair back in the first nanosecond of viewing it; and
- is it a bike that I would, in the day, be as smug as smug gets rocking up to the trail head on it

There is a lot of bikes to love in this months list. It's tough enough but hey, keep 'em coming!
 
Always loved the offroad bikes and after the sad news of Jez avery,i wanted to try and do a build to take to the malverns classic this year as a tribute to the great showman.
I found this on marketplace looking very sorry dressed up in commuting kit.
A full strip of the componants(all original) powdercoat,new decals brought this back to life

Lovely bike 8)!

Needs some pedals to be eligible for BoTM though..
 
This has started to become a collection of mini build threads. This nominations thread is pretty much just a, here's my bike + link to build thread, plus two pics max, as per the OP. Collage pics aren't really a thing here either, just two pics of the bike, preferably with the first one being the chosen image for the poll thread. A build thread isn't a prerequisite for entering but, if you have one, that's the place for extra details and more pics.

Can I ask @Thias @Rambo Mambo @A_Guy_Called_Graham @dinozoiks @Jussa and @stocko to amend your posts accordingly.

Much appreciated all 🙏
