Thats good to hear. Yours is nice, was it all origional when you got it? Ive got a thing for keeping bikes close to factory spec as poss :)

I can't work out how you do it yet. Also wanted to list my bikes in my profile but can't do that either.

Wow, realy all dead nice. The stand out bikes for me are- The cool as you like Hot Rasta Kona The Manitou (always wanted one) And the Salsa looks realy clean. Hoping I will be able to vote being new an all.

Thats a sweet bike, the only model id rather have than the 857! What happend to the shocks?

Sylus, you should see the 857 frame I won for £23 + postage? Be good to get a few opinions on it act....

That 856 is nice, I like that ti colour they did, although not so instantly recognisable to the untrained eye as the red ones. He's got the rite shock upgrades on it aswell! Did gave a slight hope when I saw it at 99p then that soon went :D

That's a good price for a minter. I can't tell what the one I've won is going to be like appart from its in grape not red, due to crap pics, I just took a punt on it. Has got a few parts hung on the frame still though, again don't no what parts yet. He's assured me its being posted today so...

I've been looking out for a 857 for literaly a year at least an they never sell for less then 150 complete (any condition/spec). I did win a 857 frame that was badly advertised a week ago for £50 inc postage, but that's taken a long time of dedicated searching!!! I'd like to no when they saw...

Wow, I had the 450 as a frame/fork only replacement for my dads hand me down 1992 blue dyna-tech diablo. I kept all the paper work, inc the warantee card, in the shed. When I broke the frame by jumping it, dug it out and took it back to the same shop it was bought from, they sent it to...

If your not to fussed about keeping the origional yellow colour there are a few car bushes you can use to make it work as well as they can on the rear.

NO NUMBER for me thanks, newbeeee, but wow how nice and what a good idea! Does this happen often on here!

That sounds dodgy lol. I've got a 454 that's old enough to run canti's but dosent have the hole :( , just a wierd pully system taking the brake cable non drive side of the tube.

Ah right, didn't realise it was for strenth aswell, I like details like that anyway. Shame my only proflex frame with that hole is a 97 with v's as stock, would be cool to route a cable through it.

If you mean the hole through the seat tube, just above the swing arm, that's a canti route?

Wow, very nice looking for a spares build. Are you going to take it back to origional over time?

02gf74 thanks for that

Yeah but it looks like jibberish, guss if it gets remembered though it should stay :)

That's a good deal then, you got a free upgrade then! When I got my dads old raleigh dyna 92 passed on to me back in the mid 90's, I jumped it a bit (teenage ignorance) an of corse the down tube came out the head tube, got a brand new frame for that, didn't mention the jumping part though ;)...

That's dead nice, white seems to be a popular choice atm, suits the frame and goes with the swing arm. Was it the classic red colour origionaly? Those cross link elites you've got on the front are exactly what iam going to be after as soon as my 857 frame gets here! Oh and the wallets been...

Thanks orange71, how do I get hold of him? Dave what do you have from 92 and 95? I've got a finished 97 animal (not very origional) A finished 97 reptile (very near origional and in the black, red and yellow colours) A 94 454 (very slow on going project, built up with mostly old lx kit)...
