I have always wanted to build a custom bike from personally selected parts. I dont have much of a disposable income to eat into, but i thought if i dont do it now, i probably never will.
To keep the costs down i sourced everything apart from the bars second hand with the help of a few of you on here. I lucked out with the condition these were in. Thank you.
Its been a long time coming, having the odd part arriving each week/month but it is finally complete, and honestly, i couldnt be happier. It rides like a dream. Super fast, immensely maneuverable both on ground and catching hang time. The best part is, despite a fairly jumpy, 4X geometry, with the 10spd gears i can ride it all day. It goes up just aswell as down. 😀
So what do you think? I have carefully selected the photos to be weed free, but no doubt will get picked up on something! 😆
Nice, apart from the 27.5 brigade will point out you waited so long to get it together your wheels are obsolete but just raise your digit to them and go ride
