[tubeglower]

That second pic where the bike is next to the tree the top tube looks bent upwards. Wierd!

Lovely bike and a bit different too.

Very nice, but not really retro, and probably not made before 1997?

Welcome to the site though!

Don't worry, I can assure you is just an optic effect (boody nokias)

Actually I made a mistake, since the frame of mine was originally a Litespeed Obed FS from 1996, so I should put the post in the Reader's Bikes ---> 1997 :-(

nono... second parts were never better ;-)

What happened to your saddle? ein?

By the way kunzho, should we put the frame process to our british pals?

Wow, that's a cool build then. You made it yourself?

 

[tubeglower]

Yes, we have used old Litespeed full sussers from the mid 90's, those that used front Ti triangle with AMP aluminium rears. Those were quite weak and the shoks a little bit "old fashioned" for modern performance use. In my case, after repairing two times the rear due to some cracking, I decided to go for a more straightforward solution, Cndl scalpel implant...

Nuts, interesting idea.

Assume you had to weld some extra mountings onto the frame?
