thanks again Jason. still can't believe how light it is. will make them weightweenies very proud smiley2.gif

 

Checked it against my current bar and it's not that much longer. I reckon I'm gonna be pretty happy with the new riding position. I've simulated it before by sliding my hands as far down the bars as the grips will allow, and it felt pretty good.

hahha so they were holding the plane until Jason's and my order arrived smiley17.gif

 

Fitted the bars this morning. looks better than the white one. white was too pimp given the rest of the color scheme.

Patches has your order arrived' date=' as mine arrived yesturday[/quote']

 

...nope... not yet smiley19.gif

 

The parcelforce site says it's at the delivery depot, but when I phoned EMS to see how much duty was gonna be, they said it hadn't been assessed yet.

 

So I'm hoping today, or at latest by the end of the week?!

Sucks what did you order? hope you get your stuff soon.

 

Yeah, it does suck! I ordered a nice new helmet (661 Evolution in Legend white), a couple of Thor DH jerseys, and Truvative Hussefelt bars and stem for my "build a freeride bike" project.

well... the frame has still to be decided by the size of my wallet when the time comes to buy, haha!

 

I would like to build on a Morewood Mbuzi frame. Crow was selling one a little while back. But if I haven't got the budget, I'll go for anything decent with 6-7" of travel.

 

Forks I'm thinking Rock Shocks Totem, or Marzo 66's.

 

But yeah, right now, I'm building up the collection of other stuff that I can put on my current ride as a slow upgrade, until I make a frame purchase and transfer it all off.
