Not had much time to ride it yet but it feels like such a nice bike, its so light and really stiff!

Big thanks to Barbara and Chris at Cleanbikes for the bike and sponsorship!

:o:O:O:O:O:O f**k me i didnt ecpect that man, very nice, let me know when your back at home so we can organise a ride or something, bet you will ride that amazingly !!

I'm back home now, I'm a bit busy working at the moment but will hopefully have some spare time soon. Just getting used to it on my stuff on the farm at the moment, but yeah a ride sounds good!

What does the allen key bolt at the back of the forks do?

I don't know, hadn't noticed it, will check it out.

but why the different colour rims?

i like it

Thats how it came, I'm not sure what front rim it is, think its the old 26" Monty rim. Might be in need of a drill :giggle:

I like the black front rim and i dont mind the red rear one, it goes with monty's colour scheme.

Very nice bike. (Y)

Why did you go to 26"???

Cheers

Felt like the right time to, being a tall rider i think the 26" suits me better and I see it as a progression.

I think the back rims only come in red and the front rim might be a mavic as i do believe thats what kenny has on his front wheel a mavic.

Looks really nice, would love ago if i ever got chance always wondered what they rode like. Might want to put a kmc chain on.

How beefy are those dropouts?! :o Its like 2/3 tubing, 1/3 aluminium plate :P

Looks alright, shame about the hump though :P You gna go to addingham with that Andy? Im a bit relieved you're not competing in 20" anymore to be honest :P

The allen key is for the stop steering system which stops your bars spinning round , i allways thought this was a pritty stupid peice of kit though .

bike looks awsome just need to change the rims and get a bigger rotor on the front .

no its not, monty did away with that idea a few years ago. It actually looks like it nips the steerer tube in the forks, not sure on its purpose.

iyah andrew :P

looks pretty nice, but back wheel looks w**k! lol ...

change rim to white or black and that would look bob on like !

cya next time your round kendal way :P:D

..ste

monty havn't made their 26" wheels in white yet...
