Another mmBop but a green one for a change.

Well the Dirty Jo is just a frame now and from the ashes another mmmBop is born. I thought I'd go for green as its a little less common. Took the opportunity to upgrade a few bits that where knackered aswell (Rear Mech and cranks). Rides amazingly well and is just over 26ib so a 4lb save over the Dirty Jo build..:O) Stem is next for a change as it feels a bit long but that may mean a bar change aswelll as stems shorter than 70mm seam to be only in OS.

Thanks j96_2. The colour doesn't really come over very well in a photo. Its much better in the flesh..Havn't used it much recently except for a little pootle with my son as I've still got a heavy cold but hope to get out this weekend..New boots in the form of Mountain Kings are fitted now..the 2.4's are chunky fellas but there is still loads of clearance...
