He told me just after the argus how he had been watching and saw a crash and the sparks fly.

So I asked if he was on edinborough drive.

 

nope, in the helicopter :lol:

But they look like good products, all the testing has to be done by them and the tests designed in house too because nothing like it has ever been done before, don't think the prices will be dropping very soon though, helicopter fuel is expensive :P

 

LOL :lol: :P

Well i upgraded from a Morewood Izimu to a Morewood Makulu. Then I've just received some crc goodies to upgrade my upgrade.

 

One of which is this uber awesome set of Renthal Fatbars (780mm wide 10mm rise)

Yip, that's what Renthal terms as "gold". It's basically stanchion colour. My spank royalas on the smallest Morewood are proper gold colour.

 

Awesome bars. Super stiff considering their width

Very nice, You certainly have good taste (most of the time).

 

"stanchion colour" sounds so dirty.... all my stanchion's are kashima covered, buttery smooth... so those wont fit my bikes...

 

Fishing around for something sexy... that'l suit the Pyga Zero29? what you recon?

Haha yeah the renthals are more the pre-kashima fox stanchion colour.

 

What colour will the PYGA be?

 

If raw Morewood have done some awesome work with the 2012 raw makulu and its subtle gold accents.

 

No blue accents! it'll just look like a commin anthem

 

3 other colours I've thought look awesome with a "neutral" frame (raw, black, or white) are orange, lime green, purple. I like these because they're more rare than the red and blue anno stuff that is now stock on so many bikes

 

Orange. Maybe some easton havocs in orange. (i know how you love easton)

If you go for the new 35mm format your can get the green. Black stem though. Bars and stem should contrast one another imo.

 

Here's an example of some raw and orange hotness
