Thanks. I've always wanted a fillet brazed frame since seeing an Overburys advert in MBUK circa 1988! It's taken a while for it to happen though
A buddy took a frame building course a few years ago and has been building frames as a semi-hobby since. Most have been road frames but he built himself an MTB frame which gained my interest and he agreed to make me a frame to my specs.
This is the geometry that I went for (650B wheels):

Re:
this was my old rig, its about '03 here i think. the 2001 norco 250 went through many builds, all with big forks as i couldnt afford a jelly bike (i was about 16) Z1s, xvert carbons, monster T's, boxxers, and eventually 888s in '04. all with 24" doublewides and 3"gazzaz. it was the biggest mongrel of a bike but i loved it and rode it for years. did some big stuff on it too! its currently hanging on the shed wall, it was my first decent bike so it definitely a keeper.
a few years later riding a banshee morphine. riding in vans slippers was not smart, broke both feet about an hour after this photo was taken. haha!
