Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted December 7, 2012 Share Okay boys! The bike is now almost officially 95% complete! I'm just off to a dinner date with the mrs so can't post a pic, but YOU WILL GET ONE! Suufice to say that it looks KING! Green ESI grips work beautifully, and the bike is just itching for its new green hubs and white wheels! Pic to follow shortly. I have evaded the hijackers for now, but they're giving chase! Hup hup!

patches Posted December 8, 2012 Share Did you sell the 'Dale or shy to admit you ride carbon? Hahaha! Still have the frame. It's currently stored away in my garage... Where people won't be able to see that i once ride a plastic bike. (ps. The intense frame is far lighter and stiffer... so much for "the benefits of carbon") Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted December 8, 2012 Share One word. WOW. Just - wow. Took her for the maiden ride this morning, and even though it was majority on road riding, there was some gnarly stuff that allowed her to show her true colours. And damn, does she shine! It's like riding a cloud, but a super duper awesome cloud. (Deon), ThePubSA and Cav' 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craaaazy man. But yeah - the ride is seriously good. I know why okes love these things now.
