Hi

I’ve been lurking around on the forum for a year or two and only recently got round to creating an account and it’s taken till now to actually have something worthwhile to post 🙂

I decided that due to an injury resulting in a knee arthroscopy I would replace my on one 456 as I felt it was too small and also sell my Orange 5 as I won’t be able to do any Wales trips this year. I always fancied a Ti frame and based on comments on here about the Voodoo D-jab I saw a frame going cheap and picked it up. Anyway, without boring you to death, here’s a pic of the build… hopefully… 😀

Went out on my first proper ride since the op on Saturday – managed 2 laps of Moors Valley. Really enjoyed it, knee felt good and so did the bike which is affectionately called the Ti Bride 😆

Anyway, thanks for reading and thanks for all the useful advice.

PS – I’ll await criticism on the state of the garden/fence/grass as I understand these do not meet the required STW standards 😳

I like that, I’ve always fancied a Ti frame (a Cotic Soda in particular), here’s the pic by the way 😀

Cheers fathomer! Thanks for sorting the image… any pointers on what I did wrong (with the image, not the bike :D)

Enjoy. I picked up a TI 456 on ebay late last year and I’m loving it. I’ve spent a good bit of time playing around on some fun local trails, jumps n berms and I think I’m riding better than ever. Looking forward to trying it out on some long days in the big hills.

Nice. Have a Soda myself and like it very much.
