landsbee - 1990 Landshark Dirt Shark built & painted by John Slawta of Landshark


In 2010, this Landshark was on eBay for sale, I immediately fell in love and was firmly decided to buy it ... but my computer and my internet connection had other plans: - / So I could not submit a bid, and I thought I would Landshark never see again ...

But you can see ALWAYS TWICE IN LIFE sometime in January 2012, I saw a post by Adrian (coleman) in which he once wrote something about "his" Landshark ... there it was again ... immediately I wrote to him and told him the story ... then this happened incredible ... he left me because he had not built it up to the date on it and a little bit of him was too great. At this point, again THANK YOU ADRIAN

Since the frameset is so striking with its original bright paint, I have to the Landshark determined easily with a complete Shimano XT M730/732 group to build, so that remains the frameset in the center! Full fillet brazed Frame/Fork and the Handlebar/stem combination.

Last week we were in Zandvoort (Holland) on holiday, the shark and I have experienced some adventures

I have made ​​countless images, for two, I had to decide here in BOTM ...

The first one I made ​​in one of the pit lane on the track at Zandvoort, the other directly on the sea (this photo session was not such a good idea;-) when suddenly a sand storm arose and the shark had to contend with sand and sea ... 2 hours I had to clean it afterwards and sand free I will never forget ...

We wish you all a great holiday,

the shark & Daniel
