    [ I can see perhaps two photographs in your collection which are rather nice, however the rest are simply 'snapshots' as you would call them...

    Less of the girly photography shite please!

    You started it :wink: :P
    Are the bars at an odd angle, or is it just an optical illusion caused by the wide angle vid? They look like they almost turn downwards.

    Says the man who's opening gambit was "You're an arsehole". Hilarious hypocrisy, once again. :lol:

    I think I'll jump in here ;-). As I have had numerous complaints about this thread. Let's keep it back on the OPs bike.

    I actually like reasoned photography discussions though, so feel free to open one in 'the hub'. But no insults and be constructive.

    I think that's fair to all.

    I've been busy tinkering.

    New additions

    1. Orange superstar grips...will be swapping them for Black Lizardskins northshores because...
    2. Orange Raceface Turbine riser handlebars, boring black flats binned but too much orange with the grips!
    3. 3T Carbon stem 80mm, slight reduction from 100mm original which is just too long!
    4. Hans Dampf Super Gravity 2.35 front tyre. Awesome tyre! Tempted to change the rear to the same or nobbys as no grip with the rockets on the back :-(

    The changes to the cockpit make the bike look much more custom and unique to me! Wish I had got coloured handlebars sooner! Plus it makes action footage look better!

    Took it for a spin the other day to Cannock and it felt great! (apart from the rocket rons)

    Need to shorten the rockshox hose at some point and tidy up the wiring at the front as well!

    Sorry, couldn't resist.

    The quality of that video is surprisingly good though.

    How come you've got the waffles facing up on one grip, but down on the other?

    I couldn't work out which way they're supposed to be so I mixed and matched!

    The video quality from the original file is a lot lot better than the youtube video!

    The waffle's meant to go on the underside, for finger grip, with the palm on the smooth side.
  • Nice bike.



    P.s I much prefer Kowalskis photographs even if they are not a patch on mine.
