Blimey Matt... you still riding that old thing [:wink:]

Yep, I sure am! Will hopefully be able to buy something to keep it company this year.

Thanks dusty & scott.

It now has a pair of polished XT hubs (thanks [url= http://www.velosolo.co.uk ]velosolo[/url]) and white DT rims, awaiting a good clean before it enters the photo studio 😀

Tracey - your bikes all look like fun hooligans 🙂

Mudguards make the bikes look ugly... At one point I was swapping frames every 3-4 months to try something different. I was actually getting quite quick in swapping bits.

My PA, first bike i've built from scratch and i love it.

New Rockshox sid team forks, hubs, rims, stem and bars, just waiting for my XTR cranks to come 😆

My Soda, complete with matching blue Hope headset, seatclamp and hubs, and 130mm Revs. Absolutely love it, although slightly stiffer forks at the front (torsional stiffness) might not go amiss.

Christ with a few exceptions what a steaming pile of shite on this thread, that Sworks of lookmanohands made me recoil in horror.

Here's some of my old creations... now departed.

This one was really too small for me but I'd always wanted a Merlin
[img] [/img]

Bought this next to see if I would get on with a long(ish) travel hardtail
[img] [/img]
[img] [/img]

Having decided I liked it a lot a year later I swapped the bits on to a Soda frame
[img] [/img]

Then had a hankering for suspension again
[img] [/img]

And now decided to try a single speed

My current 3...

My Maverick ML7.2

My Genesis Altitude

My Giant Reign X

Love them all in their own special ways!

Here's one from a few years ago though, hopefully Mamadirt might appreciate this one... Was a very sweet bike, shame it didn't suit much of my riding at all!

OK, that didn't work...

so how many of these are actually built? as opposed to 'hung parts off a ready made frame' i was hoping to see bike frames welded together by the owner, someone must have been on the Dave Yates course?

Someday id love to, need to learn welding first of course.

Not a comprehensive list, I worked out that I put a new frame together with bits at least once every three months, but ones that I have photos of.
