Hi All,

The day has come, I proudly present my finished Trek EX8 or EXs (for SUPER) It's had so much kit change that it's hardly an 8 any more. Tell me what you think please, it rides superbly IMO so the name is just 😉

Mudguard overkill. Mossy Slabs.

Try it against a black wall. Too much red...

That would be very nice without the mudguard and red tyres. My EYES!

But I guess aslong as you're happy and it rides well, who cares what anyone else thinks 😀

Would look good with white pedals. The red stem is a bit too much for me.

I hope you got a receipt for the tyres :O)

Other than that it looks sweet

Fire XCs? They need changing! Your rear skewer also looks to be butted up against the stay, so it's not closed properly. Lose the mudguards too!

Have to say I really don't like that, but if you do thats ok.

Do you have a red car, red clothes...in fact, dare I say it, is red your favourate colour?

Actually, no. My fave colour is Black, mate. The wall is just a coincidence.

Maybe I will take those tyres off though, not perfect for mud... It still rides bloody great though.
