They should really redesign the stickers because the frame looks not that bad but the way the stickers go with the bend on the frame make it look disfigured.
Still the build looks great on paper and I'd like to see it.

I won't post my ride till Jan/Feb though. Still waiting for the frame.

Yeah definitely a specialized tire on dhrookie's bike. That paint job looks SICK though. Black boxxer WC going to go on the front? I hope so...

You're selling one of the most popular frames for "not being able to get spare parts", yet you're going to buy one of those? (whatever it is...)

I'm sure spare parts will be much easier to come across....:rofl:

Yep, spares are virtually non existant in the UK. Linkages are virtually gold dust, as are the bolts for them. Will only make it harder to sell the more people realise this, hence its going whilst still worth something.

Everything on the other bike I can buy in my local bearing shop or decent bolt supplier. UK based company, I can buy the 3 sections of the frame seperately if something happens, but by all accounts strength is not really a concern.

I'm down to 3 options, one of which I'm not sure when it will be available, so I have backups just in case. Also, I'm still in the process of saving money for it.

That thing is pretty damn sick.
thanks man, that pic is from the other day when i cleaned it up to sell, but after thinking about it i realized that i really like the bike and it isnt worth spending 3k+ on a new rig for next season...

Just update everything I want to on it except for the cranks and rear hub (which i will get with the new spacing on my tr450 next year)

My '10 race bike







I've had it out a few times now and it feels good. I am planning some mods though. I would like to try it with a lower BB and slacker head angle. So my plan is to get some new links (the ones from the swing arm to the shock and swing link) made. If I get some that are 10mm longer it should drop the BB about 15-20mm and slacken the HA by almost a degree but the rear tyre shoud not quite hit the seat or seat tube.
I will update with some new photos when it is done.

White flat bars to white grips or maybe just the way the bulge looks on them but they look horrible. I love the look of flats and here they look like they need double plane tickets. The bike looks nice though
