Re: DOGSBOLX

It is a standard DOGSBOLX frame but with full braze-ons for rear rack, rear guard and under down tube Crudguard.

The rear reservoir is mounted on an original braze-on fitting and the front reservoir is mounted on an original Hope bracket.

There is also another full set of unused reservoirs that come with the bike.

It is a simple job to convert it to flat bars.

I had it built to handle the badly rutted and potholed Hampshire back-lanes and run it most of the time on road slicks. I have used it on tracks in the Alps and Rockies using fast dry weather MTB tyres.

I am of the age that my early heroes were John Tomac and Jackie Phelan who won many races on drop bar mtb's. Sadly I cannot emulate them.
