Slingshot

From the same seller as the BowTi
Some nice parts but a bit of a mismatch. These really need a rigid fork to feel the benefits.

I was going to say I’ve seen that on a Slingshot on YouTube but it’s the same bike!

Looks tiny against Doddy! Would look so much better without the suspension forks IMO.

All retro bikes are starting to look tiny to me these days. Like an adult used to look on a BMX

Definitely needs rigid’s hey. And suspension forks kill the ride for anyone who tries one

Never seen that video before, thanks for sharing Ben. But very disappointed he never actually rode it!

I think everyone who watched it was disappointed too.

What do you think of the price Tim? There’s some decent kit on it - I could do with those wheels!

Good price I guess and will accept offers so assume they might accept £700? Some nice parts on it, but not a fan of the newer Syncros stems and the Pace forks aren't right as mentioned above. Those wheels are yummy. I had 117 Ceramics and they worked really well vs. the later Ceramic rims Mavic did as I mentioned on another thread. Must have changed the ingredients/recipe?!*
