I could take the manitou FS out? No? Might crack.
I could take the Funk out? No? Might crack.
Just what on earth should I ride! Haha the ti ibis? Probably the only bike I can truly throw around with abandon!

Finally I got around to fitting the stem. I have to say I think its quite a beauty.
I also took her a blast and the ride is low , long and fast. The pineapple hub certainly seems to stiffen up the front wheel and make steering quick, took a while to get used to it. It feels a more solid frame than my ibis ti, more like riding steel, I like BUT I like the ti ibis for its spring. I must compare geometry when I get a chance and see how they differ. See if that's where the difference lies.
Now I need to clean those green tyres, grrrrr.

mojo ti - still searching for a rear pineapple hub, even a shell would do and I'll build the internals myself. Could also fancy a seatpost which apparently they made if I find one and perhaps some of their unishock forks but not the scott ones that were recalled. Anybody got anything send me a message.
