Well its slowly started ,been gathering parts and got a nice rare seat for Christmas from a very good friend Jason

Its got temporary wheels at the moment as waiting for mavic/pulstars being built (Scott),tyres are staying (karma from another mate ,Ian)
And original forks on at no as waiting for an inch steerer and crown for the manitous

Working on the crank set today,cranks and bb karma from Mr pies

Not sure I like the bars ,I reckon it needs ones to match seat post if anyone wants a swop

Blue tape on the seat post is just for photo ,I need to measure for a spacer
Shame I can't get it ready for this months botm

With the nice weather and being bored on Sunday,I decided to knock this together,awaiting grey shimano cables and some little bits of gold

Used it for work today and very pleased with the light and easy ride
And those brakes are amazing Scott,the xray shifters are going,in favour of xt pods and mavics in build process,will do better piccies once completed

Got home to find some nice shiny gold bars from BoB (I.o.w) cheers mate

And it only weighs 22lb without the water bottle !

cheers BoB

I just noticed the scales you used to weight it
She's looking good, we'll have to find you a set gold ano skewers to go on the new wheels you're having built

 

[johntomjoe]

You guys are awesome mate

 

[johntomjoe]

More gold and some manitou added

And some nice shifters from pies,thanks son

 

[clockworkgazz]

truly hideous but good on you for the build and getting out to ride it and anything that gets you away from the activator has to be a step in the right direction

[johntomjoe]

Obviously some people won't like it,its not a garage queen
Oh and I still ride my shitty old bikes too
