Rockhopper was the blueprint that everyone else followed... Nice bike, nice build. I have an 89 (i think) with really small frame for the missus... She loves it. And I love it coz it has a u-brake...

Lovely bike Will!

But why are the thumbies mounted like that?

Thanks

Regarding the thumbies: I like to keep my hands down when I hold the handlebars. Like a zombie.... That's why everything is downwards. I do not know if this is the best position for the thumbies. The last time I've used these is about 22 years ago...

Love that! i thought for a minute it might have been my old bike but mine was a 20" - exact same colour with DX thumbshifters too!

Lovely.

I've got some new action pics... One ride and it has allready lost two tyres (both too dry). I've got some work on this one, but I still love the colours...

Cheers,
Will
