Not that she knows it yet - but Jo has just landed herself a Jamis to replace the rotten £200 lead-tubed Trek she has been labouring with....

Need to source a nice, clean and light fork now.

Nice work Neil, let's hope it fits her....

I tried to set Ms Jango up with my Mongoose Amplifier, but alas it was too big.. :cry:

my missus has got a puch big wheel shopper.

it hasn't moved in the 13 years we've been together.

:idea: tell a lie - for some reason it moved house with us 4 years ago :?

Whats the name of that shock fella, it looks like it would work on a Kona Sex Too & Sex One ? whats the eye to eye of that shock..

Sorry for the q's but I've been looking for a replacement shock for my Sex Too for a while and nothing has transpired...

 

[mrkawasaki]

No idea - bike's now in storage. As I recall, this shock leaks oil, so I need another too. I'll get the details when I next go to the lock up...

 

[KonaJJ]

Is it in storage to use or maybe sold??? I may be interested if sold...

 

[Jamis Diablo]

If you sell the shock to KonaJJ, please sell me the frame
I've been looking for one like this for a while.

Here you go Dude - http://www.ebay.com/itm/JAMIS-DAKAR...0822633?pt=Mountain_Bikes&hash=item3a69a98d69

Was after the frame & shock myself (Only for the hinge system), I've since learned the original shocks are cane creek a10 or a8..

Looks like a very nice frame indeed, so close to the Sex too by Kona its unreal.. the Dakar look like it has slightly better rear geometry for the rear shock.

I believe the Noleen shock was standard fitment to the Dakar Team throughout 1996 - the Cane Creeks are from 1997 onwards - unless you have evidence to the contrary?

This was a $3300 frameset BitD!
