My 2008 Kona Stinky. A singlespeed.
Yeah was going for the silhouette action. Playing around with ideas for a project in the future.
The colored chains are pretty much junk, I wore out a red one on my pista in short order.

rebuilt up my chameleon. this build i set aside weight and went for a reliable comp set instead. comes in at 30lbs.
im sick of dealing with chaintugs so i got a sette tensioner. when it dont slip its great, but it slipped 3 times on 1 ride
i may go buy one with a spring instead
running 32:18 and can do most climbs at the local trails, but ill need to use my fs rig for the tech climbs elsewhere

Real nice!!A lot less ghetto this time.
I never saw anyone else w/ one of these.
I have a VRS1.0 that my brother gave me, been through a couple 24hrs. and he pretty much upgraded everything xt-xtr. It doesn't weigh much, and I'm sure it makes a great single.
Thanks. Out of curiosity, I just looked up the VRS 3.0 in Bikepedia. I've always thought it was fairly new, but a department store model. I was a bit surprised to learn it is from 1997, and retailed for $1400.
Just got the bars back yesterday. Thanks!
Do you still have the pair of shims that go with em? They were in the bag of extras I sent. I need em if I am to run the bars w/ a standard (non-bmx) stem. Still futzing w/ the fit of the new bike. (it arrived yesterday)
LOVE LOVE LOVE the 29er/rigid/SS setup. I don't know why it took me so long.
People who see me riding it think the same thing....department store. Aside from the rear triangle cracking(2 times), It's a great bike. My brother and I are going to fab. up a new rear triangle for it, then it should be good for another couple years.

GenII SC hooligan SS:
Current setup with RS pike and misfit Fu2 bars:
Previous setup with a van32 and strip bars:
Just out of the box, my very first new frame...sooo purdy...
weighs something like 26lbs with pedals, the pike is not light in the slightest but it is plush.

Here is mine. Medium Sinister Ridge. 32x18. Fun and fast.
36 x 15. It's intense fun on the local singletracks with its obscene head angle.
Fresh paint.
This is the base for a work in progress:

I will - I don't have all the parts I need yet though. Not even close!
Loving the finish on that frame MMcG ( looks like a raw copper in the photos). How are you going to set it up (ie racey or trail)?
