Thank youVery nice. Love that colour with the silver accents on the stem and fork
How are you attaching the hose to the top tube?
I’m looking forward to seeing it built with the decals on.I filed out the cable stops on the top tube and some self adhesive hose guides for the centre.

Thanks. I could do with a 45 degree banjo fitting ideally but ill try and adjust the hose a bit for now.

Just had a 30 mile test ride and I’m really happy with how it rides. Very smooth and the fork feels very supple. Definitely better than the Hahanna although that did ride great, the Cinder Cone just feels like a magic carpet. I can’t wait for some long days out in the hills now.
I’ll get a front disc to match the rear, decals and some fresh grips and I think it’ll be damn near perfect for me. (For now)

Thank you very much. I’m an amateur compared to a lot of folks on here, there’s some seriously talented creative people on here that are happy to share their skills. I like the lines of ‘90’s bikes, there’s something about the skinny round tubes that must of imprinted on me back in the day lol

It’s all about the skinny tubes and simple lines!
