Rarr! (Spacers from other two bikes are on that dirty gert stack on the Orange, the forks have now been cut and the other two bikes are ridable - premptive 'ta' for pointing it out ;))

Now with XTR cranks.

After a good cleaning yesterday. She's getting a bit long in the tooth these days but still a faithful friend...

Gary, does that mean you've got a set of rigid forks going spare? 😉

Sorry Antony, I'll be hanging onto those!

Handjob & Pompino

Blast this photobucket - I have tried to edit it but it ain't happening...

I am officially an old duffer.

If this doesn't work I'll give up

Hurrah! 🙄

like the handjob

Nice to see someone else running a 5-spot with PUSH rockers, not sure I go much on the colour though ...

Currently building up a retro SS (Cannodale KillerV) but it is at the powder coaters ATM

This is the one I am riding most at the moment. Off touring on it in a couple of weeks.

Still no desire for any other bike 🙂

Picking up some 2009 Deetraks at lunch time for it.

I don't know how/if it could be done, but could someone find out where someone is based and be looking at you pride and joy before stealing it to order?

stoney was wondering, is that a 16" Ti 456?

[IMG] [/IMG]

Nice Tracer 😛

Wish I had a bit more travel 😕 . Almost 10 months old which is pretty good for me, but now I have it just how I want it I've started looking at other bikes again 😳 . Thing is, another Intense frame is out of the question cost wise, especially when you add in the cost of new longer travel forks . . . guess it's time to 'shut up and ride!!'. It is bloody lovely though . . .

Not as trendy as some...

looks sweet better than when i had it soz again about headset

tom

No bother man. It's pretty light! Haven't taken it on a decent ride yet. Gonna give it a blast round somewhere soon to bed the cables and gears in. Think they need a little fiddling before they're shifting prefectly yet.

That Red intense is beautiful!

[img] [/img]

Best bike I have ever ridden.

pretty much jizzed in my pants ( [url]
