Tyres no, rear mech no, otherwise very nice

I like the tires and rear mech. (And I've heard that ESP 8 stuff works great.)

The bike's great and I knew a racer with one. (I almost bought a GT Avalanche over my Stumpjumper in '99.)

I think it would look even better with a red or a blue fork. That said, for a period fork, '99-00 Rock Shox SIDs are pretty good.

I like it .

The SRAM set works great, I didn't expect that.
I have a set of black tires and maybe I'll put a white saddle on it.

At least, I allmost gave SRAM up for you

Lovely bike, only change the 9.0 Betsy for the 9.0SL carbon (hey what's in my sparepartsbox....)

And please put on the Michelin Wildgrippers (and give me the Spacialized tires....)

 

[sniperworks]

Yeah do it!

 

[LTS Biker]

NO wildgrippers!
Blackies! Normal blackies
Black saddle, black bar and black barends

I love black....:?

Just hoped you would listen to me one time...

Think the frame looks best if nothing else is black..euh white.
