-Yes our team is sponsored by them.
-Decals will be removed however I am probably going to get something custom made up to replace them, I just don't like how cheesey these are and the looks of them, you can hardly tell what it says, let alone... its just the bike name, not the company. I'd think the company would be more important
-Photo of the headbadge is below

Here she is so far... hippiekai and I went down to the shop he works at (Kulshan) and he helped me get some more work done on her today. The BB needed chasing, couldn't even slide the thing in without chasing it. I still need to get rim tape, true the rear wheel, get a scewer for the rear, shorten the brake lines and rebleed them then put tires on it and I am set to go. Hoping to have it all done the first of the week, I just keep forgetting stuff.

Haha yeah... I got lucky with the fork.

The frame came with the seatpost and seatpost clamp, not the headset.

Allen @ DropNZone.com hooked me up with the rest of the parts. He kicks ass!

Ok so its all done. Last of the photos!



There she is all built up. Unfortunately its like a monsoon outside so I won't be riding it this afternoon/evening but hopefully tomorrow I can take her for a spin.

Thanks to Allen @ DropNZone for hooking me up with all the parts and Soul Cycles for the kick butt frame!

Yup COmtbiker12 is right, its a 15.5"
I think that a good way to compare the 15/18" frames as far as how different they are in sizing would be to compare them to a small and large P bike, just as far as how most people can fit either but depending on what your main goal is will help you decide which one you want.

That's the 15" one. The 18" ones are larger and don't have the straight line of toptube/seatstays.
I had actually just noticed that Biggin's '04 (posted on first page of this thread) looked closer to the posted '05 than mine, and had come to that conclusion... but thanks for verifying it! :thumb:
