My "first" retro build :D = JMC Stumpjumper =

[MikeD]

I assumed the grip in the pic was all the way on. I'd wait and try it with the brake levers before doing anything rash

 

[Blindingsun]

as it stands, it's looking like I need a different set of bars

 

[Antfox]

Loving the build , be good to see more inspired builds on here.

Great opportunity to get the correct bars this time.

Azonic
2.5 inch rise
Single wall
Rough black Matt finish


This build will be fantastic if done right, and attention to detail is a must!

 

[Blindingsun]

Fatti. how do I know the diff between single and double wall versions?

 

[fattiman]

The single walls are always Matt finish

Just thinking about the paintwork. Why Dont you just get the top tube painted and new decals, then clear coat that would preserve the nice original paint on the rest of the bike.

 

[Blindingsun]

Forks on and pumped up. stem is due tomorrow, then need to find new set of bars and wait for my brake levers to arrive

This is awesome! It makes me want to wheelie round fields pulling silly faces

DIRT!

 

[Blindingsun]

Every time I stand over the top tube wearing Jason's beanie, i find myself doing that silly "pretending to ride the bike like a nutter thing" from the music video part of DIRT..


is that wierd?

 

[konaben82]

Hahahaha that's nostalgia! ;-) looking forward to seeing a pic of you in action!
