Will upload some better pics once the new discs are on. Bought it back in 2010 on 0% finance and just been gradually upgrading it since. Just getting there now. At last, really love riding now so much fun and even more since my fitness is getting better too.

Looks cracking mate nice bike

robq7653

Thanks mate. Took a while to get the set up right but love it now, and white personally I think stays in better nick, my mates red fsr looks trashed and not much in age. Be taking it to the alps I think (still unsure on destination) for a nice hot blast for a few days take in some epic riding and views.

Looks nice in white and some decent upgrades too I went down the same route with Easton carbon bars and seatpost, couldn't get used to the shape of the Tundra saddle though so replaced that with a Charge Spoon, I guess you noticed a big difference with the new wheels the standard ones are heavy, I've just ordered a new set.

robq7653

Yeh I like the easton kit. The seat I love, bit gutted coz its starting to crack and new ones are about £80 if you can find this tundra in white still most definitely noticed and the tyres are pretty light too it's not much heavier than my tcr composite roady. Have you what have you gone with mate?

WindyG

Those saddles are very marmite, I know a few others who love them, I keep meaning to put mine up for sale. I've gone even lighter with the tyres with Racing Ron's front and rear, I have a set of Stans Crest on EVO hubs from Superstar on order same as I have on my Scott. I'll also go tubeless with these wheels.

robq7653

Which one do have the tundra 2? Thought of running tubeless but never have and bit unsure on it still. Sounds nice heard a lot of good things about superstar components.
Is there a sales section on here, need to get rid of my deore discs, straighline levers and other bits

WindyG

Yep a Tundra 2, never tried tubeless before but after speaking to others I thought I'd give it a try.
Sales section is at the bottom of the main forum page.

Don't suppose it's blue us it? Yeh just found it thanks mate. Will have to try it sometime I guess. Bikes at the shop having the hopes fitted then a weigh in

WindyG

Nah it's black and silver

robq7653

Didn't think be that lucky. Well the new brakes are on and am itching to get out on it as soon as this rain gives up will get some pics up soon

There was a white tundra for sale.in the mtb parts section on here for £30.

I have a white and blue one which I hate but it looks quality on my lapierre.

robq7653
