im only missing a rear wheel , cables , levers and a stem

a budget clunker, Oh god I hope not perry, While I dont have much money I have spent wisely on parts which has taken a few months.
I was going to go for some red parts cause they do look nice on a :twisted:
not catching me out that easily....

But I opted for black parts as they are easier to find.

is it a trek ?

i hear theyre on the up

 

[Dar Kuma]

lol, noooo

I am quite sure this will be one to look out for in the future.

p.s. your avatar makes me motion sick

I did actually forget quite a vital part on the list, which were forks :roll:
I hope the ones I have fit.

 

[Dar Kuma]

nope, steerer too short by about 15 mm, falls below the top clamp section on the stem.

I'll get a pic up on monday, as my camera is at work at the moment, but I'll carry on building it but i will nbeed another pair of forks before riding it.

I found a way of fitting forks that haven't got a long enough steerer.
Use a headlock to tension the bearings and a seatclamp to hold. Then remove the headlock and fit a quill stem.

 

[Dar Kuma]

Thats a cool idea dood, might start looking at that

 

[Dar Kuma]

No need, hopefully sorted out a nice pair of P2's with a long enough steerer

I've got my camera now so expect some nice pics in the next day or 2.
