Mr Plod Posted April 10, 2007 Report Share Posted April 10, 2007 (edited) Right, the story so far. I fancied something a bit longer so Bought Mr Congreaves Control frame off him. Heres how the bike was from the most recent photo...Heres the new frame (Well new to me. So well looked after! Barely a scratch on it):Think you'll agree its in brilliant condition!And here she is BUILT UP!!!I think she looks great... From the little play in the garden I've had she feels alot more nicer than the pitbull. Just waiting on my Hope Mono Trial to arrive now Leave comments and I'll love you forever EDIT: Updated pics. Also heres a Spec:Frame: Echo Control 04 LongFork: Zoo! Front Wheel: Viz Rim, Sapim Race Spokes, Viz Disc HubRear Wheel: Echo 07 Rim, Sapim Race Spokes, Hope Pro II HubFront brake: Hayes HFX-9 (Waiting on my Mono Trial)Rear Brake: Magura HS33, Tensile Off-Set Clamps, Heatsink Blues (CNC Backings)Drivetrain: Echo Forged 6061 Cranks, Adamant bashguard...Tyres: MaxxisHandlebar: Zoo!Stem: Echo (Unsure what Echo stem it is though...)Thats all I can think of at the moment. Any questions then let me know. Cheers EDIT 2: Just had a quick measure. Measures in at 1100 Chuffed with that. Will give it a proper ride tomorrow I thinks Edited April 11, 2007 by College Boy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Plod Posted April 11, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2007 (edited) I meant as in looks not how it rides.Danny.Yeah I loved the stealth theme I had going on. And I was considering spraying this frame black as well. But I think the brushed silver with all black parts actually looks pretty sweet hense why I've left the frame as it is. EDIT: Also I don't think the pictures from night really do it justice. So hoping I find my maggy clamps so I can finish her off, and then I'll get some daylight pics Also I'm waiting on a Hope Mono Trial to come as well as that Hayes HFX-9 is absolute tommy tank! haha Edited April 11, 2007 by College Boy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
