grant wildman Posted May 25, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 25, 2010 im pretty sure clive made the bump as i think it was porter (not 100% on that ) ripped the headtube off a 660. basically it has two head tubes, to soaks up impacts , like a sock absorber .

shamus Posted May 26, 2010 Report Share Posted May 26, 2010 Don't paint it, the components look sick with that paint/sticker job, the rims/forks etc looks proper subtle and classy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got a sock absorber, it's in my washing machine, you put loads of pairs in and the feckin thing absorbs one of each pair then adds a few odd ones you never put in in the first place............
