Luke Rainbird Posted October 20, 2008 Report Share Posted October 20, 2008 I wasn't going to post this up, but was grabbing a snap or two for a mate so may as well copy things over here I guess!Please excuse the poor photography, like I said it was just a quick photo with little to no thought put inRides like an absolute dream, weighs in at around the same kind of weight as the 26” even with the seat etc, and looks rather pretty too (these pics really don't do it justice unfortunately) I've only ridden it twice so far, but I already feel more comfortable on this than I have done on any other bike, EVER! Just need to dial in the setup and learn to ride now I guess...Props to Steve @ Heatsink for various awesome components, and to all who've helped with parts along the waySee you on the streets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke Rainbird Posted October 20, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2008 looks awesome, finally got another one then well done matey, gunna be beastlyYeah, it's been too long since the Ashton. Such a machine, I love it!My mums spent years looking for a sink like that, did it come with the house ?Sink was bought from somewhere a couple of years ago - you can often get them second hand from people who've changed their kitchens if you look around a bit! Noodle is fine, just do it if you get a chance budGet a new seat fat ass.But this one is comfortable and out of the way. Plus it has a purple bird on it tis a fine collection of crockery you have there and have to say i admire the homely country appearance of you kitchen too.Thanks, I pride myself on my kitchenwareCut your steerer down I shall do just as soon as I work out how much I need Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CurtisRider Posted October 20, 2008 Report Share Posted October 20, 2008 I hear 24s are for people who cant afford the extra metal for 26 Lookin bo dude, seat looks a little bit odd! Get those stackers underneath, low front ends are gash i'm lengthening my steerer so i can have the front up another half inch! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

manuel Posted October 21, 2008 Report Share Posted October 21, 2008 looks like you have at least one ground rim .... get some more black stackers too looks pretty swish - COME BACK AND RIDE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Rainbird Posted October 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2008 looks like you have at least one ground rim .... get some more black stackers too looks pretty swish - COME BACK AND RIDE Indeed, but you know how pathetic my grinds are - attacked it with a wire brush straight from doing it so it's not really there Soon as I've worked out stem height it'll get hacked (the grinder also met the 26" mounts on the fork) so stackers should be ok15th November, it's on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skoze Posted October 21, 2008 Report Share Posted October 21, 2008 Looks funky fresh Lucas!All these 24s popping up are pretty damn tempting, shame they're all too expensive or in pieces We've gotta get the east-west cruise on the go...
