NickGM Posted February 16, 2017 Share Carbon for racing - steel for passion. Steel is floppy and heavy and wonderful :-)How can something be both floppy and good for passion? Fat Boab 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eddy Gordo Posted February 16, 2017 Share Funseeker, Hottail........? So what funky stuff are you gonna be doing to the frame?I wanted the hot tail, had it in my basket and in my size. Waited too long to pay and it vanished. SO I had to settle for the funseeker. I got the 650b/26er version. My build is still long from being completed. Waiting for hubs, chain ring, rotors to arrive.Then I still need a seatpost.I am considering a suspension seatpost. Any thoughts on this guys?

I opted for the 29er, got most parts ready for the build just need odds and ends, seatclamp, bar etc. Wanna expriment down the line with 27,5+ hence going for the 29er Will probably also somewhere along the line look at doing a custom paintjob on it too Eddy Gordo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A thing of beauty!! Can steel be finished with just a clear coat? Maybe not enough corrosion resistance perhaps, but would be nice IMO, to just stare at that, particularly the brazing.....
