Voodoo

[jonthefish]

I didn’t know I liked off-road biking until a mate decided on Glentress (trail centre) as part of a stag do. Loved it so went off and bought a bike. I’m old and run 80s and 90s motorcycles so thought I’d go retro. Totally got me back into riding and tinkering with push-bikes.

Ride it XC or to shop and pub with the Pace forks and flat bars. If planning a ride with scary steep bits I stick on the Z1 Bombers, risers, shorter stem and a helmet (after breaking bones on first few rides helmet seemed like a sensible purchase). Bike works great either way even if I don’t.

Not exotic or even original – certainly not B.O.M – but loving it and brought me to Retrobike. Thanks to all for advice and bits for this and other retro ploys.

Re:

Though I like the look of flat bars for retro bikes, I understand it's a personal fit thing. Love the Zmax style tires on the rear, but never found a taste for them on the front. Minor personal taste stuff, all that.

Best of all, that Marzocchi turned the bike from very nice to totally desirable.

Ebay. I was inspired to look for one after seeing Charlieboy28's viewtopic.php?f=6&t=147214&hilit=+voodoo+erzulie

The bike was hardly used and after riding it for a bit I started tweaking it with various bits from folks on here, ebay etc. Fun to do and enjoyed the learning and mistakes along the way. I've got the tinkering bug but I think this bike will be a keeper.

The Bombers have a bit too much travel really - it is quite a slack head angle with them on - but good for the rougher stuff and they do look good!

Seems like a perfect candidate.
