I have thought about it, but if I'm not mistaken yours were white?

 

Also considered buying Maxxis' Mbuzi frame with the Lyric, but I already have too many bikes (if sometning like that even exists)

The last of a dying breed. 26" hardtail. Still awesome to chuck around in the bush. Am holding out against the 29ner wave till the bitter end. Remember the Alamo

That is one awesome looking bike. Congrats. Am super jealous right now.

Awesome looking bike!

 

Wish you many happy miles.

 

Looks a bit small for a medium though.

 

...but guess as long as theTT length is fine the 'extra low' standover height is a bonus.

Might be withdrawn. I get an error when trying to open the "for sale" link from the link below.

For Maxxis's sake I hope he managed to keep it as I think it's a really awesome bike!

 

I had to pull the sale unfortunately. Was going to build a Jabula with a Bos fork. Sadly the sale of the house emptied my pockets faster than a Tik head in Woodstock.

Ah.

 

Makes a lot more sense now.

 

I thought you had to sell your bike because of the house sale (gone sour)

 

At least you still have your Mbuzi to ride until you have the moolas for a Jabula.

 

I would love to try out a Mbuzi at some point.

Hi guys.

 

I joined the Morewood family recently thanks to Dubbelbuys.

 

Took my Scott Scale and moved all the parts over to the Zula frame.

 

Here is a before and after...

 

 

My apologies for my amateur picture uploading skills, seems like you're going to have to click on the picture to see it properly
