Re: Re:

A superb build as ever, how does it ride? Sorry to ask, as I can see you've been busy...but did you happen upon a Salsa roller whilst going through your spares box. Fingers crossed, H.

Cheers H, Send over a Pm with your address and ill send you a roller.

Only ride its had so far is to set it up really, adjusting bar and brake lever position, setting gears up. Its surprisingly comfortable, certainly shorter in the top tube than the D.O.G.S.B.O.L.O.X, too, which helps with the drop bar position. be nice when the New Fork Elastomers Arrive, might like to change the shock boots too.

Re: Re:

lovely build and attention to detail, although i'd like to see it with black bar tape

Cheers Bud, I wondered if the Black tape made it look unnecessarily heavy, so ran with the white, but off road in the shit it wouldn't stay that colour for long, your right.

Re: Re:

Such a sweet build and unique paintjob, your hours of hard work in doing that really paid off. Stand out stuff that will really speak to guys of my era who grew up wanting a zebra etto!

As always, grade A work!



Team Hot Pies anyone?
