This is true. Might be cheaper and less labour intensive just to track down a mint condition Ku though!

Ha. You think I haven’t thought about this? The AA had painted decals, not glossy stick-ons.. so unfortunately I would know every time I looked at it!

You can be the community’s nominated pioneer. Get that Chinese titanium BB bolted onto your DH bike and hit the uplift..

Would love to see a photo taken a second or two after that one.. envisaging a LOT of lost skin and maybe an airlift..

Wow. Bit unclear if it’s original or quality repaint from one of the usual suspects. “Seller refurbished” Beautiful though, either way.

Yep - Gen I Bombers were a game changer

Yep, same. Tracking a Kula down is easier (must’ve sold more) and it’s the same frame.. but, has to be an AA..

Nice wheels. Hopefully the closure was through choice rather than the economy..

That’s an expensive repaint for someone.. Props to the original owner though - “never mind that fancy lugwork, mate.. is there a braze on for a stand?”

Hed wheels is an interesting shout on a skinny steel frame. Did you see one in your formative years with that combo?

I’ve seen worse thread revivals than 10 yrs on RB! I’ll pass regardless. I like my bikes crack free. So… do we get to see your dream build?

Sensational build. If it were 18” you would have presented me with a bit of a dilemma, given I’ve literally just acquired a mint one after years of looking - plus, per the map you look like you’re 5 mins away from me. Would have been all too convenient! GLWS

Yep.. that’s the one. If anyone has a (spare) mint 18” (or even a 17” at a push), pls do pm 😊

I was about to say the same thing to you, sir 😂

Had to double take at that pic… 😂

I remember the article 😊

Fantastic find.. Begs the question.. what else did he have in the warehouse?

Maybe Sun rims? I have a set in just that blue..

A 26.6 and a 27.2 would have finished off two builds for me! Damn you, millimetres..
