Clark Kent F12 Ti... Finished! 5/3/2011

[Alex Creasey]

Hi all,

Managed to pick this Clark Kent F12 Ti frame up last week .
My first venture into the world of Ti but absolutely chuffed with this. In very good nick, no marks or any chainsuck at all (I’m led to believe this was built but never really ridden). So here’s a few pics of the frame as it arrived… If anyone can help identify the year etc I’d be very grateful indeed:

And a couple of the welds… Very neat:

Have a few build ideas and colour theme will be red with the exception of the Rock Shox SID forks in white (a look I liked on Wadsy’s King Kahuna)…

Have a couple of sets of cranks I could use?

Well that’s the start…. Looking forward to getting this one up and running

HAppy Christmas all!
Alex.

Very nice

There are a few Ti bikes on here now with modern sid's - must be a good match ;-)

Indeed... Hopefully a good choice , although I couldn't find any outgoing 2010 models with v bosses.

Been following your Airborne build with interest. Did you go for the Spinergy's in the end?

Cheers.

Really nice frame.
Cute cat too!

Think I'd go for the race face cranks personally.
Looking forward to the finished article.

Black Cooks for me, the Race Face are too similar a colour to the Ti.

Thanks chaps, will prob give both sets of cranks a go to see what works... I'm erring towards the RF's at the mo.

Also a few Flites to in the mix:

Cheers .
