Yes, love this.
Looks ace, nice splash of matching colour without overdoing it.
I do like the 18Bikes frames, quality.

The NO7 in its natural habitat. Few laps at the F.O.D. Checking out the mini enduro stages

Amazing build I love a nice steel hardtail, they are way to rare today. I bet she is a beast on the downhills.
And those colors...mhhh!!

taken on our North Yorkshire costal holiday a few years ago. A funny story goes with this photo we were talking in the sights riding the costal path to Whitby when I heard someone randomly shouting out my name. Haven’t never been up this was before I thought it quite odd haha fame at last I thought!! turns out it was another No7 owner that I follow on instagram whom I have never met we had a great chat about these awesome bikes just a great little moment that bikes make possible it’s a small world for sure
