Club roost VCV (dh8)(update pg2)

[cyfa2809]

i had my i drive but it wasnt what i wanted although it rode superbly, so i traded that with inittowinit for this frame and a few other parts.
its a bit of a pig at the moment i think (actually it only needs minor things changing!)
parts from here there and everywhere, rides well up and down the street and is lighter than my commuter :shock:
will put up a spec list if anyone is interested and wouldnt mind some comments/discussion
the frame is a vcv which is an early dh8 (2000 i believe), has the 6,7,8 inch travel holes and spinner cargo forks

looking good so far dude. not sure why but love the blue spacer detail

thanks alot!
it doesnt need much, blue front wheel (i hate odd wheels/unsymetrical bikes! ), different tyres on there (got a set of specialized resolutions for now), wider post, new cassette and a shorter bb!

haha you like the spacers! maybe its because of the odd stem??
