First time posting a pic so be gentle if it goes wrong !

Ive made a few adjustments, got the silly short 45mm stem swapped at the bike shop for the 09 models 70mm, Thomson layback gives me a perfect position for me now (short legs, long arms and back). A close thing with the exposed triple ring and my ankle saw me remove the big ring I hardly used anyway, bashguard now in place. Oh and some lime green grips, cos I liked em. Thats it for now !

i had this one for years, there ws nothing original left other than the frame, after undergoing various builds! Sold it to a friend recently as a starter bike, who has now got my old hemlock instead, so i may recommision it at some point!

Still rocking an 06:

Not personally, but 13thfloormonk off here's currently on a huge xc ride from Glenfinnan to Cape Wrath on his; met him in Torridon last week for a couple of days outdoorsy stuff –

Can't tell you much about his set-up, but he does a hell of a lot better than me.

i bought one a year or so ago.
used it for a couple of months.
it seemed very capable at most things, and very robustly built.
