Hi folks I finally managed to sort my log in out. My fault being a computer illiterate fool.
Any road I'm getting back into mtb after a long time away. In fact it's so long now the stuff I used to ride is now on here. Love the site and the cool stuff I used to drool over.
Current collection is a specialized rockhopper comp fs 98.
Manitou were frozen so I replaced with a set of newer cheap rockshox I got from a parts bike with a stripped bottom bracket. On the road now though.
Gt timberline as it came from the shop including the psycho 2s. Bit scratched up from being battered around someone's garage. But the grips had degraded into a sticky mess. And the shifters needed a bit of a
Strip and clean but it rides well.
Kona fire mountain 03 scratched but not dinged and I can't decide what to do with it.
Lastly my latest acquisition is a kona lava dome 93 Ish that someone had resto modded without the resto. Full Deore xt 9 speed with v brakes but the headset is rough as they come and the bottom bracket (sealed) is wobbly also got rust coming through everywhere. Can't decide what to do with this. Only got it today so I haven't started yet but I'm debating weather to strip off the lovely xt stuff and sell on as is or rebuild with the
Complete alivio Groupset off the gt and go to town on it.
Can't decide but I will get some pics up once I sorted out my Photobucket.
Thanks for reading
