They're as slack at 105mm as my Blur 4X is at 160mmm!
Jeebus, that is going to be slack!
Look forward to final build pics, colour and graphics look awesome on the SS....Pity On-One failed with the new Inbred colour combos.
Nearly there . . .

Cheers Elf! 32 years eh . . . good job he's not a bike frame . . . patience of a saint that man 😆
Cake has now been consumed and the sun has come out . . . yessss!! 😀
Ah burger . . . ISCG mount is old and not 05 👿 . Never mind, Uzzi can keep the eThirteen . . . time to test the Superstar/DMR/Blackspire/mamadirt hybrid chain tensioner 😉

Looking good... My housemate has a bright orange one, it's so much fun (with Pikes) it's not even funny.
Daveyboywonder - has your 4X sold yet?
**** me that cake is something else 😯 😉 It's the ickle frames that looks the best, everytime, but please mamaD stop, you're making me think that swapping my straight up diddy 456 for the SS version is something I should be doing.... arghh....
Mmmmmmmmmm, I like 😀 . Feels pretty damn good with the forks at 120mm on the 'down the street' test. Just have to fettle the chain guide now then the woods are calling . . . I may be some considerable time . . .

Oh, cake was made by my son and his girlfriend for her sister's birthday btw. I think the food colouring they used came with a warning printed on the bottle 😆 . Lovely though 😛
Good job, looks stunning...although cant help thinking it looks all 29er with that tiny frame 😀
Dammit I want to ride my (slightly less tiny) bike!
Looking lovely 'mama'
Take it, it's a play bike you wanted then...interested in that chain device mashup you've created, what parts have you used?
Enjoy 🙂
Wooooo! Love it!! Very, very nice ride indeed . . . super comfy (bear in mind I'm more used to 7", er, out back) and feels pretty much spot on at 120 on the road/climbing and 140ish offroad.

160mm really is super-slack but it passed the 'dropping off the concrete slabs under the motor way bridge' test with flying colours 😛

The chain guide is made from an old DMR Chain Reactor hinged clamp, spacer from the centre of a Blackspire roller, Superstar XCR spare top guide and sunken head allen bolt from mama's bolt collection. It could do with being offset a little towards the front of the bike [url= http://superstar.tibolts.co.uk/product_info.php?cPath=56&products_id=475 ]like the Superstar seat-tube mounted guide[/url], but does the job just fine . . . and more importantly, quietly.

Well, it's been several hours now, so I imagine she's already stripped it down again and bunged it on Ebay....
Very nice, just needs some mud on it now 🙂
Job done . . . too muddy for ebay now 😉
