Ordered some stuff the other day from Chain Reaction and must call into a local anodiser tomorrow and see if they can clear anodise the rear end to preserve the polished finish. Still have to get the front end painted and figure out the colour of Boxxer 151s

Yeah http://www.retrobike.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?t=230685 I bought the project from secs (neil). I haven't updated it as there seemed to be more interest in empty cans of red bull, but stuff is still happening with it.

Yeah mine is small and it looks like a BMX. I see you can get lay back Thomson Elite seat posts if mine is too short.

Looking good. What size is yours? Medium?

Double post.

Here's my frame after i blew off the dust. Frame is 18" centre to top of seat tube.

No I don't think so. I remember it being jet black and maybe the components were anodised titanium. It might have been a works bike or something, I think maybe a Specialized alright. It might not have been in a mtb mag though. I think it was a feature actually and not a build and it listed each...

Didn't get a chance to pull it down. I'll try get it tomorrow.

I saw this bike in BOTM and had a flashback of a build from the mid 90's of a black bike with gold anodised component and now as I write this I think there was a max weight target that was pretty light for the era. Does this ring any bells? Sorry if it wrecks your head :twisted: I think it had...

I have a Dyna tech frame that was my first proper mtb. I bought the frame 2nd hand and it was a warranty replacement of the owners original. It has the Cr-mo rear triangle, no wishbone, alloy head tube, bb and seat tube lugs which are black and the 3 titanium tubes are a light grey colour...

I got the frame decals yesterday and collected the polished rear end. I'll take some pictures of it today. It's amazing.

It's not really that much. If you look at the whole picture it's a different story. Not sure I can explain so I won't even try. http://cdn.speedhunters.com/wp-content/ ... edBull.jpg

I received an XTR 116mm BB from Chain Reaction and the front wheel today. I'm missing the 2 spacers for the hub though and it appears to be a Bulb hub so I contacted Hope about getting spacers, so fingers crossed that they can sort me out. On the plus side it is the correct D321 rim laced to...

XTR shifter arrived today just needs a quick clean and it will be mint. No I don't own those cans.

Lobo decal set purchased, MRP World Cup chain guide purchased and a better condition M952 XTR rear mech. What size BB axle is needed on a Lobo? I measured the shell at 73mm Edit Postman just delivered the rear end bearing kit and XTR 5 arm spider.

Big thanks to you so Chris. The Image Works replied to me saying they can supply Lobo decals for £25 + postage http://www.bike-stickers.com/homepage.htm No I don't drink Red Bull. My AE86 is the money pit from hell this Lobo is quite cheap in comparison.

How's it going. I bought this from a friend(Neil) last week. It's a local bike that went around the country a bit. At least 6 previous owners probably more. I stripped it down and cleaned it up a bit. Then sent the rear end to a local fella for polishing so I should have it back by the end...

Really detailed build, thanks as this is going to help me no end with my Lobo.

I bought this Lobo from Neil so I will start a new thread there soon.
