Christmas gift from S.O. because i will be doer en gone without cell reception, unsupervised with project munga training. A relatively low annual fee, a month by month contract that can be turned on and off.

Ha! With my genetics and I think also my age, if I don't train properly I wont finish the event. And also, any excuse to be far from the madding crowd.

Got Inpatient a bit and decided to build it with some parts I have lying around 😂 going to replace some parts in the future, like a boost fork for a start 😂. Still need to bleed the brakes and set the gears. But for now I think it looks okay..

Get a longer seatpost asap 

 

Min on that frame is 100mm but anything less than 125mm is a big risk on that specific gen

When you have a thing about odd bikes that you can't buy in a normal shop.

I now have an Evil Following "The Minion" to go along with the purple and orange custom Pyga named Barney.

I am late on this, having built the bike up over the last few months, but I did just purchase the final piece!

Here's my custom Marino dualie!


Treated myself with some new Lyne AMP HD rims with their newest shiny Hi-Per hubs, fox 34 up front for trail riding and a cane creak dbcoil at the back that I've had stashed for quite a while. She's set up to be a do-it-all bike, and while the suspension is just 130/130, I managed to take a 3rd place finish in Elite Mens at the Clarens DRI! Geometry is king ;)

The heaviness from the steel frame is completely counteracted by the loss of wallet depth :P

I don't need a frame but a new project couldn't hurt much. What size is it? 😁
