show me your inbred

Only difference is a QR seat clamp, old school red DX spd pedals and I've committed sacrilege and wound the fork out to 120mm on a Mk2 inbred.

Sorry I'm late
. Here's lil red in his latest incarnation as a stop-gap bike while amassing funds for my new build . . .Now stripped back down and a wall ornament once again but it's the only frame I'd never sell (3 years old at the end of this month and seems to ride just great whatever forkery I build it up with - loved it with those 120mm Minutes)
Loads more incarnations here.

Paul, Brant/on-one went through a few different chain tension methods, I think the timeline was
Normal slot dropout
EBB
Slidey dropout
Current slot style (with disc slots too)Posted 2 years ago # -

Only been out on it 3 times, but its ace!

Out and about
All clean and in my gardenPosted 2 years ago # -
paul, mine is a prototype 456, there are 2 only with an EBB, there are some tinbreds (i think) and normal inbred from back in the day with them.
here is the wife's made with parts hanging around the shed...

and my normal mk2 or 3 inbred (stripped down to frame only).

The Phaons just will not die, never really liked them as the spring was too soft and it's impossible to get a replacement here... left them 12 months and it stiffened up. Not too bad now but the stanctions are rubbed to flat spots and still work the same...

mamadirts is the only one i'd be seen riding and more akin to a build i'd do.
looks like it`d be fun on the jumps etc.

Who takes pics of their bikes when they're covered in mud and you can barely see them?

If I didn't take photos of my bike when it was muddy, I'd never take photos of it
Actually, I did clean my bike in April and took some photos tehn.

Ti456 count as an Inbred?
Anyone know what a 16" steel frame would weigh? Thinking about building one up for my wife with rigid forks.
Posted 2 years ago # -
very early pic with poor dress sense and mix and matched bits on it

rigid with normal wheels

69er style

new 456

My 456. Just swapped the Vanillas for some Dual Air Pikes, not ridden it with the Pikes yet as the front brake hose is now too short.
Great all round bike, superb on singletrack and rocky tech stuff.

I put slicks and panniers on it last weekend and rode the 200 mainly road miles from Bingley to Banbury, over three days.

Mind I have found less crap sticks to it than most bikes

Here are mine -
The first (with comedy air at the Weekender - courtesy of Dave Haygarth)

And the most recent - built this week and ridden no further than the bottom of the garden (now with sorted stem and gear cables). Has replaced my short travel geared bike to hopefully learn me some skillz.

soon to be converted into a tourer!

Heres mine......

My second, a slot-drop in red. Now sold.

My third, an early SS, bodged with XTR, but now back to SS.

My girlfriend stole my first one, but I don't have any pics (it's ugly).

Here's mine - not the most inspiring of backdrops (don't say a word about the state of the lawn...) but it does at least show the frame in its current guise. It's an 18" sliding dropout model - and its ace.
I don't normally run the Revs on it - it's just that the 100mm Rebas are at the menders.

I'm a bit late on the uptake...but here's mine

It's now considerably more muddy...with a higher seat
(although out of action for a while courtesy of an icy accident
)
