Woof 😍 ...or should I say Grrrr (considering the Tiger stripes)

Fabulous build...I too have a fetish for early Mountain Cycle stuff and yours is perfect

Just run through the grits wet sanding to about 1500-2000. Then clear lacquer and wet sand and polish. Had success redoing Spinergys and HED wheels as well as a carbon Easton bar

Thinking about next years show (which I hope to do both days) , the tiered display racks really had an impact and so have been looking for one for my bikes and stumbled across these...

Good effort

Drive side pic..and the more I think about the polished fork legs the more I think you are right, although would get my powdercoaters to put a polished alloy style finish as this bike gets rough treatment

The thought had crossed my mind😁

Just built up today. Updated the firmware on the Smart Shift box but have a flashing red light of doom so not letting me calibrate it...workshop manual not very helpful, so looks like I need a word with Pinion ( new tech...don't you just love it!!l

It's a custom made frame based on the Geometry of the previous frame but with a slightly longer top tube. Lots of mounts on the front triangle for all my bikepacking bits and mounts for all speedsensor and charging port for the Pinion smart shift battery. Graham Foot of Smokestone Bikes ( and...

Always wanted a Girvin on a modern Fatbike/ Adventure bike so approached @danson67 a few years ago and he built longer and wider fork legs to go on Noleen Crosslinks ( the best choice for this conversion). I have had the shock rebuilt and it is super smooth. About 75-80mm of travel which is all...

So after 7 years of use the " Mint Sauce Fat Bike" turned it's last pedal stroke on the Surly100 this weekend ( wearing it's 29+ wheels). Picked up my new frame from Graham Foot So just started stripping the frame to transfer the forks and brakes over. So I have an offer for the " Fat Curious"...

They got it out of the skip when Kirk were dumping frames

Oh well L.I.F.E.G.O.E.S.O.N.

Having a shufty around the Gloucester Bike Project today and this is their doorstop😁

There is method behind the madness...much neater than mounting behind on the Girvin legs...fully approved by @danson67 and have been working well for 20 months with no issues

He has a Retro sixth sense😅

If you can get too it before @retrobikeguy snaffles it🤣

Yeah they use a shim on the top and had a specific crown race. 1" spacers and a 1" Proflex stem. You are better finding some Noleen Crosslinks

You've got early crosslinks ( labelled Girvin not Noleen) that were shimmed to1⅛ but used a 1" stem. I've got a pair on a Proflex Reptile Frame. The generation after were 1⅛ true

I think the Noleen has better rebound and a bit more upmarket
