    1998 Bontrager privateer / Chris King / Black Ops

    very clean, and i kinda like it with the profiles. Maybe go single speed with those cranks though? And the radial front lacing is a nice touch.

    29er recommendations

    +1 for the inbred. Brilliant frame with some compliance. The frame looks quite simple but is built to last. I used mine for commuting through the forest and went down all the trails I took my PP Shan down and still got good times on the runs. Thing is now on one/Planet X don’t do the frames...

    PINKBIKE is exhausting...

    I find its all "Loam riding" and "YOLO" sayings, I may be sound old before my time (im 35) but I find it all a bit teenager like. What happened to just messing around and on the bikes, its all far too serious and "Instagramy".

    1999 Santa Cruz Heckler in a box.

    Nice, was that the one on Ebay recently? I personally prefer the Orange and the Marzocchi Z1's. Cant go wrong with the Z1s.

    PINKBIKE is exhausting...

    I know what you mean. The way i look at it, Pinkbike has generally been at the front end and extreme end of Mountain Biking. Like MBUK for example. It was always about DH, Trials, Jumping etc. Always the latest greatest bikes, frames, and now god forbid electric bikes! i do like the Malvern...

    So what’s happened to all the 27.2 dropper posts with a lever?

    I wish I never sold my inbred to be honest, that bike was great. I’m keeping my eye out on eBay. There is a Thomson dropper on eBay right now, finishing in 40 mins…

    THE ultimate Ti build

    Did you ever think about carbon rims during your build? Might have made it a bit lighter… Loving the Ti.

    So what’s happened to all the 27.2 dropper posts with a lever?

    About 5 years ago I purchased a KS dropper post with a lever rather than remote as it was an Xc/Commuter On-One Inbred 29er and I didn’t like the additional cables. Now trying to find another for my current ‘dale and cannot find them anywhere, they are all either internal or external remotes. I...
