nice grips
any more?
Next ones will be when it's finished 😆
Is that putty holding the tubes together?
Curtis XC by any chance? I really like the brazing on those T45 frames.
I hope it's not going to be Kawasaki green... 😉
I thought Curtis too

What's wrong with Kawa green?
R979 is close but no cigar
Is that an X-Lite Fly? Nice!

Yes it is.....the nicest looking stem ever and has matching X-Lite G Force bars too
Sweet, not seen one of those in ages, were always real nice.
Waves at fellow Curtis Buddy.
Love my SX.
Waves back.....mines a freeride 🙂
I have a red x-lite fly, last time I posted a pic of a bike with fitted on here everyone slagged it, funny how things turn around
Eye Ken I have seen your frame in the past I was tempted to buy it when you had it for sale.
But it would be too big for me as I like my frames small. (16"Soul,16"Alpine 160 and my SS Curtis SuperX)
Looking forward to the complete build pics.

I have a red x-lite fly,
Is it still red or has it gone a bit pink?
Still red last time I looked
Fancy selling it?
I wasn't part of the earlier Fly slagging. It was one of two stems I always wanted back (ITD) when I couldn't afford them. A bright blue Ringle was the other.
Nowadays I run a Thomson, which is about as dull a stem as you can find. Ironic really.
Ha ha, no plans to sorry 🙂
Might stick an ad up on retrobike then 🙁
I would still slag it rocketdog. I know beauty is in the eye of the beholder but that stem is in no way good looking.
Damn, I was going to say freeride but I went with the lesser spotted XC.
Ken, not sure how to tell you this, but the top tube, seat tube and seatstays seem to be stuck together with masking tape... 😯
checked last night, still looks like this and Lenny is still on it

Lenny is cool.
That's one of the "long" ones (90mm IIRC)
Mine is only 70mm
