Here she is finally done the way I wanted my down country HT.

Thanks to Grease Monkey for the excellent condition 120mm fork, some custom decals from CBR, Flow's Pillar double butted spokes Hope Pro 4 hubs built by Knipe Racing. These make the already fat Ikons even pop out more.

New drive train and rear derailleur.

68 degree H/A, bb only about 5mm higher but the much wider rim and extra tyre volume would also have had something to do with that.

Now just to get a chance to play on the trails.????

lucky you you have already had a ride on yours ???? I am dieing to go for a ride but sounds like that will only be Sunday ????

Smiling all the way. The process took a week. Much better than just walking into a bike shop and getting that instant gratification. The best feeling when it all comes together.

 

I’m sure your ride will be awesome and worth the little extra waiting

Were you at Wolwespruit yesterday? Wearing yellow and black kit?

Haha yes. Tested the bike out to get used to it for the Trailseeker. Only did green and the flow line. She handles like a beaut!
