Was going to mention these 3 too!

So varied. Loved it. Both bails at the end looked brutal..

Looks great! Did you upgrade the jockey wheel? I think the older tensioner had a stronger spring?

Looks good. Enjoyed the post too.

Heard about this... Hope he's ok!

Looking nae bad! Ill be along as soon as I can on Friday.

I'd have to check postage dude. Pm me your address. Archive geo is 995, 74.5, 20, 360.

Yup! A silver, bronze and matte black. All black forks. 2017 Archive. Same geo as this one I'm riding here...

Gonna be cool seeing a more compy set up with the wide rims etc..

Thanks David. If you would like to get your hands on one, sling me a PM/DM here or on FB.

Good job you don't have to run them then.

Sounds like you're in need of a "rest day".

Looking forward to it. Enjoy Bobs!!

Bens like, f**k this, I'm moving to Vancouver.

So Pro, Duncan.

Ill see how they go. Might be risking my life. Time will tell. Cheers, once I've made some changes to it, like the seat and post, ill fire up some updated pics. Might even wash the rear wheel! There's still some clicking noise coming from the pads rocking in the calliper so have to get that seen to. Ill also have to get out and try some decent lines on it and get them filmed.

A couple of clips hopping on it for the first time.

There's a dude already got one of these ready to build up. So waiting to see what his build is like. He's already coined it the SteeTGS bike. The Archive off-the-shelf idea went down really well, so we'll have to see with the Vader.

My DD echo done me well. It had a crack just under the headtube (not at the end of the down tube gusset where they usually go) I rode it in a show till it was like a wet noodle and had about an inch left hanging on on the tube. eek. I may or may not have bought another.......... Rear 180 on a M810 and front 200 on a deore. Both work great Soon.

Aye, there's been a couple of high bb 24"s he's done. You're right it was familybiker or something. The other dude was Dez I think. I'm not 100% sure on the details on theirs but think the WB on them was shorter and HA was slacker than this one.

No idea what that first part is about. Ill have to check it out. Yea, I did wonder if the bash would look a bit big, and I think it does but these 4 bolt bashes look big on any bike I m o. I was going to go with my trial tech SL cranks and a smaller rear cog to keep it more compy looking but the lack of blackness on the cranks put me off. I wanted to try some blingy carbon cranks anyway. (See Alis vlog "I don't use my bash anyway). It was always going to look different no matter the set up, with the longness and the seatness and the barness angleness. The zero spacers/missing headset dust cover is actually because my steerer is just the right length* to get a couple of turns on the top cap. Ill fire out a couple of updated pics soon with the measuring tape in place. I've already went for a shorter stem... *too short. EDIT: For the record I think I made the seat tube too high, worried that the saddle would touch the tyre. So may have to hack an inch off it and run a seat clamp. Ill see. The saddle itself doesn't help matters.

Absolutely nothing.

It's long, black and has a seat. Any questions, fire at will.

Ha. Two happy dudes came and picked theirs up last night! 7 frames and forks going in the post asap and one more dude coming on Wednesday. That should half the amount
