After a fun few weeks sourcing and restoring parts for the little Orange Mr XC build the wannabe DHer in me kept coming back to the little Bullit on the 'Bay. Seller was super-helpful and accepted my offer soooooo here we go again . . .
Super excited about this one
Paintwork is a little tired but really just cable and heel rub only - don't think it's had a hard life. Aiming for something like this (I'm a sticker-holic :facepalm: ) . . .
Fox Vanilla RC works fine and even came with the correct spring for my weight - win! Planning on using the restored Vanilla 125s from the Orange build for now (stanchion repair has held up great) but with the shock shuttle, that amount of adjustment should open up loads of possibilities to keep the eternal fettler in me happy
Spent most of yesterday with the polish and touch-up paint - still had the paint from my Chameleon resto a few years ago - http://www.retrobike.co.uk/forum/viewto ... p;t=352704. Super-pleased with how it has turned out so far
