Nice carboot find!

A bit of fettling had it all working including the lockout on the fork and shock

LX/ XT mix

The wheels were from another boot sale and are a bit pooped but function well enough

Manitou shock and R7 air fork

£10 RB Clarks brakes as the original Deore need fluid

Liking that. What is the R7 like? Not a fork you see very often and one I have always fancied instead of the Black Elite I have, on account of it being air rather than coil.

I've been using one for years and its not bad. Perhaps just slightly flexy but really light and thus far maintenance free.

Is that the clang of the sound of a 'hint' being dropped from a great height?
