And a sheet on it to stop the tyres getting dirty.

Don't be mistaken, this bike is used and used hard.

Every other month it is stripped to the frame, polished and lubed-up. This was taken post re-build.

Remember kids, mud doesn't stick to a silicone waxed frame!

why the i beam saddle & seatpost? thought anyone with a orange 5 would have fox forks on
