frame.... perhaps made before i was born or at very best when i was little. found it in a bush, stripped it, painted it. built the wheels myself, scavenged parts from here and there.

My old '99 Heckler dragged out for some fun in the last few days, lastest addition is the forks which were those Tora 318 Air that Wiggle knocked out for about £100ish a few months ago

01 Rockhopper A1 frame, seat post is the only thing left that's stock and when funds permit I will replace it.
99 Cannondale Raven,2005ish Lefty ti. Mix bag of older XTR and newer Hope mono4. Now has RF Deus cranks.
Kiwijohn, who makes that saddle pack? I could have done with one of those at the weekend!
Here's my '99 Generation

Bars aren't as enormous as they look (wide angle lens). Wierdo mudguard is staying on while I play with the shape. (I don't have that many zip ties left!)
epicsteve - what spec/size of shock did you put on there ? I'm considering something similar myself
The coil shock is a 200x50 and I've also used a 190x50 RP2 - both have worked well. I think the standard shock was 195x50.
DBR Axis Ti is the nicest so far
2000 cannondale f900 powdercoated and rebuilt with road gears and slicks. Very fast!
seeing that sunn urge un has made my day.
Ned, the packs are made by Epic Designs in Alaska. Beat using racks by a mile.
Cheers John, Yup, they look like they would! I've been looking for something like that for a while. I looked at the clip-on seatpost racks, but they doidn't look very satisfactory. Those look perfect.
really liking the bikes with the slicks
oooh that F900 is nice!

Ahh I so wanted an Enduro during those times EpicSteve...
I guess 2004 is too noew but hey ho - 2004 Stumpy frame with more modern LX grp set and Revs.
Used to have a Mk1 Santacruz Bullit (2001 frame) that went through various build before being sold due to lack of use compared to my XC bike.
Here she is/was

I've always missed it since it went and having recently moved to Innerleithen I've been wanting for it even more for mucking about on the downhill trails.... so, I picked up a 2005 frame and built it up for a play bike to ride to the top of the hill and then charge down it...
Here's the Mk2 !

A classic SH frame built with tough single crowns and a twin and back so I can ride to the top first.

Now stripped back (no mudguards, lights, etc, better saddle) but this is my 1997 Stumpy with LX HT2 chainset and new drivetrain, tyres and a few other bits and bobs.
Gave it to my dad who loves it! Very simple, pretty light.

old sv 700 with newer bits on it
