Dug this M2 1996 frame out of the loft, with a view to moving it on, and putting the booty towards something I actually want. However, after a brief go on ebay to no avail, I thought it might be interesting to do a little winter project to challenge my own feelings and views on stuff that I just don't like, and maybe try a few things I'm not familiar with. Nothing too radical, but I don't think it will be going together much like it came out of the factory.
First three prejudices overcome. 1. simply doing a build thread!! 2. it's 5 years too new, and 3. the biggy, it's aluminium (though as aluminium goes I guess it's not the worst frame ever).
Umhh, that was easy so far.
I'm not at all precious, so please feel free to wedge in and put me straight, or rip the crap out of it as it goes along. Won't be offended and doubt it will be much fun otherwise
