    Well happy with my latest project. I used to own an SX and it was a bike that I loved and wish I had’nt sold, got a cracking deal on a 2nd hand frame so had to get. Replaced the bearings, new lick of paint and bought mainly through the classifieds. Fit and forget was mainly my thinking.
    After an initial ride I’m absolutely chuffed to bits with it, re-lighting my love for the way it rides and the way it just feels well…right
    Not sure on weight yet but ar’nt arsed – its class.

    Well impressed with the tyres, they have had good reviews and I’d back that up. Fancied something different and well happy with them. roll really quick for a big tyre. Super grip too!

    You wanted fit and forget so you fitted Fox suspension?

    I do love those old enduros tho. I fancy another one.

    My Floats and Vanillas have been very fit and forget.

    While nice I’d suggest that isn’t a classic SX. This is a classic SX:

    I’ve got another old Enduro as well – an S-works one.

    Looks very nice. Unusual frame colour, but it works. Looks good in the photo, so probably looks even better in the flesh.

    Brave saddle choice.

    What’s that cassette?

    Thanks for the big ups guys, first bike I’ve posted up, thought it deserved it.

    Ruminant – got the spray done at a local spray centre. Asked for a unique colour and they came up with that, its got white and silver like a pearl effect.

    I_Ache – My fox forks have been spot on and had no probs in the past.? Run rockshox and magura on my other bikes so not biased.

    Epic – that is a classic but never thought they rode that well to be honest. Very iconic though!

    Joe@brooks – its a kcnc i had as a spare. Love the toupes, fits my ass perfectly.?.
