wow!! awesome bike. how do the forks ride? I was considering some AMP forks on my next build

An unusual combination that seems to work well..I like it

Real liking it, always had a soft spot for Merlins and AMP, in my eyes it'd look perfect with black wall tyres like porcupines

I like !

black rims + tires : very nice set !

Looks good, I remember having those forks on mine years ago, they were the same as on the Mongoose Amplifier. The caliper mounts snapped and I eventually bought F3 Carbons. Will load some pictures shortly.

why do you use a seat clamp? where are the original seat post binder braze ons? what said the seller from suisse about this?

thanks jeff for sharing the pics

cheers

Many thanks for all the comments folks, I'm very happy with her.

The fork remains untested so far but it clears the frame by about 5 mm. I do need to rework the cables a bit to stop them rubbing.
I just had a quick look for some evidence of seat-post binder braze ons and there's not a trace.

I'll take some more pics when the sun shines; I added a Carbon Flite that looks pretty nice on it.

Cheers!

Aha, I'd never see one without the braze ons, maybe a custom order like the u-brake mounts on seatstays.
