DIPSLICK Posted August 12, 2022 Share I would rather take a 2kg colon blow, even If I won it, I would send my driver to collect it and take it straight to Mikesmoous,,,,, He can sell anything I`m sure he would have to break it down for components ChrisF and Nico van Loggerenberg 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have a couple of rad pink shirts and I’m so “manly" I even sh*t standing up...

MTBRIDER1234 Posted August 12, 2022 Share I have actually chatted to Gustav and he seems like a really cool guy with a very bold style. When you see a guy wearing those shorts, it should come as no surprise that he builds bold bikes. I think what he does is awesome and the attention to detail that goes into them is absolutely next level; I challenge anyone to show me a custom bike build like one of his. I wouldn't ride this bike, but I certainly would ride all of the others. To each their own, and that's what makes the sport so rad! esCape-ist, ChrisF, justinafrika and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riaan H Posted August 12, 2022 Share My only issue with the bike is the downward dog stem - my back would never handle that, otherwise it's rad! Wouldn't actually have minded a brighter pink, and more of it. As many have said, his style of bike is as bold as his looks, and most of us envy his pair of legs.

ChrisF Posted August 13, 2022 Share Reading the article it seems he opted for prototype parts in various bits, while lighter bits are available. Radical for the sake of radical ? OR, a show piece of new trick parts ? Have to wonder where the scale would have stopped if he opted for thee lightest of each .... Optically .... not my cup of tea Technically .... yet another master piece from his workshop. justinafrika 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If my lotto numbers come in, definitely going to make contact with Dangerholm for a custom build. When they come in do it yourself I’m bored of his always Scott builds I do like the cranks though justinafrika and babse 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that seatpost height combined with the slammed front end, would make me weary of ever pointing it downhill.... We all saw how the ass up head down set up worked for Nino this past weekend ChrisF and justinafrika 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My wrenching skill beyond hopeless, will probably brake 2 and on the third try get someone to do. Busy glueing the boys plane back together, pappa hy gaan nie weer vlieg nie.

Includes co2 and stashed tools That is an insane dream build for sure, but I was referring more to his other builds like the 13 kilo dh bike, the 7 kilo spark and the 6 kilo scale. What you have is a beauty for sure and that is exactly what I would want if I was building an xc bike. Great job Wayne! esCape-ist and Wayne pudding Mol 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
