Muel Posted December 22, 2008 Report Share Posted December 22, 2008 Now that is weight saving gone mad. Looks really smart, I don't think I've seen one with a front vee before.In the first pic, the frame looks silver, in the second, it looks kinda grey?

toyota200x Posted December 22, 2008 Report Share Posted December 22, 2008 Great looking bike, but you need a much shorter stem. 120 or shorter length would be good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lankyri Posted December 28, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2008 just wanted a simple bike really didnt want loads of colour on it either, nicked the front wheel off my xc bike just because i can now ride .went out for a late session last night feels really good on back wheel easy to gap on it as well but finding it hard to wheeliehop up stuff didnt help the back brake wasnt really gripping either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
