Hello all
New to biking and I am currently loving it alot, need to get a few more bits, hydration pack better gloves and a helmet!
Anyway I got a Claud Butler Stone River, second hand, but it was never used, with lights and some other bits, anyway not modified it in anyway apart from the outer edge of the rim was in silver which I have sprayed black as I prefer that look.
Great forum by the way!

Certainly not been used much - just need to add some Mud now!
I'd also go with shortening the stem, also loose the wheel reflectors.
Very obviously a Merida frame, very very similar to a Carrera Vulcan of the same age!
The most important thing is to get out and enjoy it!Currently riding a Whyte T130C, X0 drivetrain, Magura Trail brakes converted to mixed wheel size (homebuilt wheels) with 140mm Fox 34 Rhythm and RP23 suspension. 12.2Kg.0 -
