[Clinton - theCOW]

Notify the air marshal, cos this thread is completely hi-jacked...

 

 

 

Did you sell the 'Dale or shy to admit you ride carbon?

[Captain Fastbastard Mayhem]

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!

While we wait for you ....

Regarding the plastidip / vinel protection for frame; where do I find plastidip?

[Captain Fastbastard Mayhem]

hahaha good - cool i'll let you know - im on leave from wed - so can ride during the week too.

 

OH .. mayhem .... who bought your GT???

You will enjoy that Reign in the wet .... it never Reigns ... it POURS

 

A guy who is a habitual tinkerer. Let it go for a steal - R 5k full bike. Sniff.

 

But heck, it allowed me to get this little beauty!

[Captain Fastbastard Mayhem]

AAAAAAND - BaZINGA!

 

@ Hairy / Patches / 2Nutz - this is for you! Note the accents! Gonna look even better with the real rimzzz

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")

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.

WOOHOO CPT that maestro cloud has a silver lining ... .

Love my trance everytime i ride it,and i got lucky when some 1 needed cash and payed 4.5k for a 5 month old 2011 trance x (entire bike that had been ridden on mostly JT by a DR ) .

Now go take the biggest jump youve ever done again

WHAAAT!? 4 1/2 gorillas for a Trance x!? Craaaazy man.

 

But yeah - the ride is seriously good. I know why okes love these things now. A couple more adjustments I need to make to it, like compression & rebound settings, but apart from that (an my wheels and a dropper) she's superb.
