Re: Re:

Adding this to my mood board.

^^^ but that's a proper bike

All depends on your point of view. In my books this Crock is way more properer.

I do believe some proper shit is about to go down. Fam.

Needs rear rubber and Cobbling together a crankset out of mountain exage cranks and rose gold xt biopace rings. Found an xt V rear brake, cable disc front, deore thumbies minus caps..... need to pack out a top pull mech too. M735 rear long cage found.

Do I go bonkers trimmings or something more subtle (for me) making the whole the star?

Reverse risers will give it the 'cafe racer' James Dean Rebel Without a Clue styling I'm after. It's largely silver though, as a homage to his Porsche........

I'm making this up as I go along you know. No work today. Idle minds and all that....

A thought: two sets of bars? I may just about have room on the steerer. A higher set with controls for downhill etc, and a lower but forward set with just grips fo a bettererer climbing position? Yes I'm a genius. I think this will happen, I'm talking myself into it as I type.....

The front tyre says I should inflate to 30 psi. Don't fats run softer?

If you wanna channel your inner James Dean, go cruising around Sandy Heath on this bad boy friday evening and dont forget the leather chaps. If you see a tall QC with an Alsatian say nothing and just comply. He wont hurt you, I mean the dog.

Why would I need a barrister and a German?

That’s the coolest - Nastiest looking - WTF build you’ve done to date

Not sure if I should congratulate you or shoot you

Aw shucks, that’s the nicest thing you’ve ever said to me.

I’m welling up.
