    Like the lo-pro tyres and they blend into the rims so well you can't see the join :lol:
    I've added a signature to prove it is still possible.

    Ha ha....

    Soon as my KMX X9 chain turns up, and my braided gear outer it will be ready for the maiden voyage......

    Oh and need to fit my cassette also.

    The grips were meant to be black but they made a mistake but I quite liked the red so kept em....

    Weighs approx 36lb which is ligher than I thought!

    Dead nice Cheesey - I'm not sure on the yellow wheels, perhaps they'll grow on me?

    i really like those handlebars, and the yellow wheels look pretty awesome. and i like the finish on the hope moto's. and the carbon fibre on the shifters is lovely.

    Oh yeah, the frame is awesome.
    All in all, a pretty good build!
    I'm not jealous

    And the consumer of the year award goes to...you!

    So that's the IFT, Attack Trail and Wildcard all finished?

    You're gonna get withdrawal syndromes, your LBS will go out of business and the economy will take a savage downturn.

    There are people relying on you - start a new project quick! :wink:

    Wildcard looks ...well...wild! Hell of a stable!

    No - couldn't bring myself to sell them - I would take a massive loss on money....

    I ride them, this is the last build though.. no time nor room nor money for anymore :lol:

    now that is nice and worth the wait. would like to get a close look at it sometime. Maybe we could meet up and you can get a look at my versus blitz, doesn't look as tarty as yours but it performs.
  • I would shorten them hoses a bit unless you are trying to lasoo sheep!
  • Cheesey, I dare you to post a photo of any one of your bikes being ridden or at least with some token dirt on them. Even though I clean my Marin religiously, I still feel guilt that I can never quite get it to the standard your lot are at. Then again, I do actually ride it every so often.... :wink:
  • That is pure bike porn 8)
    I want one..
