The welding on that is simply stunning, cant wait to see the finished bike.Never argue with an idiot, he'll only drag you down to his level and beat you with experience.0

That is one very nice frame,only nicolai could make a weld look that good.can't wait to see it built up and I think it might give the ginger trek ex8 a run for its money on looksI assume this is French petrol - be careful in reverse - the car will retreat rapidly at the least provocation.0

Just a quick update
Here is the bike finished just before the alps

It coped with everything the alps threw at it, however at 38lbs it was a tad heavy. Over the summer I bought new wheels, brakes and forks for it and it now weighs a skimpy 32lbs, haha

A few updates will happen, the new xtr cranks will go on it, as well as the new xtr trial brakes. the gravity dropper which is in the first pic has also been returned to its rightfull home.0 -
Saw one of those in the flesh a while ago, superb looking machine, blows all those swoopy, hydroformed frames out of the water, and a fantastic build too.And now you know, and knowing is half the battle
