TREK Y33 first generation / XTR m970/manitou three

[marin man]

It is a distinct possibilty though

A bit like a carbon eggshell

:

I fear it wil crack then spring shut with one of my knackers pinched in it :shock:

lets face it , your no gonna need them again are you ?

did i tell you the story about the selle transam saddle and the runner bloke ?

 

[marin man]

Nope.....enlighten me

 

[sinnerman]

......like that carbon saddle mate....

 

[marin man]

It is quite comfy actually........

and under 100 grams :shock:

mm

 

[marin man]

Ok ....after looking for nearly a week for the right sized fittings for the braided hoses,crc came to the rescue with some hope disc fitting

Best of all......anno ones

 

[marin man]

New forks :shock: rides nicer now if a litle short on front travel.......should have some pace air force on the way soon so may swap them again yet :roll:

certainly looks nice with these on

dude,

I like what you do with the bikes, but how about chilling it out and keeping it all black/silver or something?

IMHO it would look classier.

 

[marin man]

Because when I started riding,anno was all the rage,so if I didnt do anno now i wouldnt see the point of building something and would just buy a generic alloy framed generalized or somesuch........ :?

I built my scott in stealth mode and it only has gold nipples and that is about it....gold seatpost will be coming off soon and a carbon one going back in it.......

 

[mikeekim89]

build it all black.
