    The stone camo design ties the titanium colour of the fork in better.

    If you rock the camo wheels i hope you can ride very well, personally i would drop the red cable outers and cranks and go with the other wheels, looks to bling for me. im considering a Blur or Heckler myself, but it will be much more tastefull 🙄

    No mate not Tesco's i was thinking more Lidel's
    I do think you have made one of the best bikes out there look cheap and nasty,sorry but thats my opinion but each to their own hope you enjoy riding it.

    Wheels – Mavic xm819 and CK Hubs in red poss?

    The Mavics are an option mate, and CK hubs are bomb prof for sure.

    I had a look at something similar and really liked them.

    If you do go the ck way buy the hubs at the same time, as the anodising changes – I bought one pewter hub from here and it was almost dark grey and another hub from Aspire and it was almost purple. Great hubs though.

    Enduros the others take the limelight away from the bike – a little too much.

    Thanks for the advice Ash, nice bike also mate. I nearly went down the La P route but budget wise could only afford the 514 and the white paint was a bit last year IMHO. Seriously dunno what to do with these wheels now man… Sell both and go Mavic SLR or supa bling with some Crank Bro Iodine's! LOL

    Login to Flickr and open the "All Sizes" page of your photo. Choose the photo size you want (Small, med, large) and at the very bottom, there's a single line link.

    Copy the link and insert it here between IMG tags.

    Whatever wheels you go for, chose some that are a tad less harsh..

    That is a very 'busy' bike

    Tomahawk – I uploaded the pics to photobucket then when you've created your albums there are links on the left hand side click on the img link that will automatically copy it to your clipboard all you have to do then is paste it into your reply.

    Thanks for the comments Luckily I got the 316 cheap and so far I've spent just short of 1K on her, she rides like a dream though – worth every penny. Only trouble now is I need a bike to run on the road and to commute on. So I've got an old GT arrowhead frame I've swapped old parts from the spicy onto and am now running it as a ss. Hope you make the right decision for you –

    Thanks all.

    Yup… i do apreciate the 'constructive' critisism. I do like busy tho.

    Interesting that you mention the SS i am considering a a similar project. What size ring do run up front?
