And today I did......

Aye gutted but she was sick for a couple of years was still awesome to see her as a 6 year old tearing up the park at 30mph as she was a small greyhound/collie cross absolutely stunning to watch her go.
 
Used an afternoon off to wander round damn near every bikeshop in Edinburgh hoping someone would have some nice NOS 32 hole non disc hubs in their supboard somewhere.

Nothing.

However if anyone is feeling a bit flush Velo Ecosse in Edinburgh have a Rocky Mountain Vertex second hand but apparently never actually ridden (and I believe them looking at it) full carbon everything hardtail in a medium for the trifling price of 2 grand, reduced from the new price of 5 grand.
 
Ask the Bikestation nicely, they sometimes secrete nice stuff for ebay sale or they might have something still built to a wheel or attached to a bike they might part with. Its got to be worth a go ;)

Also today another piece of the off road tourer jigsaw arrived in the shape of a pair of Schwalbe Evolution Marathon XR's. They look f#ckin HUGE 2.01 I hope they fit on the rims Im planning to use :?

While were on the subject I may be calling on your collective brains to come up with colour for the frame (its a 1990 Lava Dome) A. Original or B. The low profile stealth mode colour ????????


.

Right girls I need your opinions, original or summit stealthy? :?
First pic is period correct, second is what some muppet has done to it now.
