Should be taking all the bits off of it on Sunday so I'll be in touch next week.

^ The official Salsa framebag for it is very good (made by Revelate). Pricy though
The Wildcat one is better, doesn't hang off the shock, and cheaper.
I may have bugged Beth a lot to get it designed in a certain way...

All this Horsethief talk has got me contemplating a full bouncer again!
The wildcat frame bags are lovely (I've got a fair bit of their stuff) but my Alpkit framebag is excellent and a lot cheaper at £70! Pic on previous page...
will do, but trying to get a price that works on a HT at present - and our valuations seem to differ somewhat. But then there's also YGH's to be watching......
Greg, have you got a side on picture of your bag? I've got the small restrap one that I use on the other bikes and it's great, but it doesn't fit the fish....

Just because you asked nicely.

Quick PSA- Harts Cyclery have a large carbon horsethief frame in stock at a good price- I was very very tempted,,,,,,
Cheers Greg, very nice! Is it custom, or do they keep a pattern?

No issues! Pretty sure Beth should have the design still, mine is a large one (fnnarr fnarr) so give her a shout and have a chat.
Wouldn't normally do this (sorry mods) but a couple of people expressed interest in my Horsethief frame, which I've now stripped down and have up for sale: http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/salsa-horsethief-frame-stans-tubeless-wheels-reverb-3x10-slx-hope-qr-caps
I've had a El Mar for ages now, love it,

Well since the current owner hasn't posted up yet I might as well 😉
My old Vaya which was lovely but I just didn't seem to be using, I either wanted a proper road bike (I also owned a Cannondale Synapse) or a proper MTB (I enjoyed the Vaya off-road but think I got carried away and ended up damaging the ligaments in my wrist after some over-enthusiastic descending in the drops).
I adore the looks of bikes like the Vaya, but think for me personally it would be absolutely pointless to own... but DAMN it's nice.
Great my threads back........keep 'em coming.
This is prescient, as I overtook someone on a Salsa riding through Chester yesterday morning, and I wondered if it was someone on here. Don't recognise the bike on any of the preceding photo's though.
Grey, drop handlebar touring style bike. Singlespeed with some distinctive red flat pedals. Brilliant trackstand at the traffic lights too. 😀
Stedlocks, your Spearfish is parked less than a mile from my house. Are you local?
Love the red on the SS Moff.. colour i was aiming for with my Fargo in the original post.
Thanks Greg, I'll give her a shout when funds allow..
And Jeff, no, I'm nowhere near....my buddy lives in Alton, and we were doing a bit of camping around there....
Greg re frame bag.
Have you got any dividers internally to stop everything ending up down the pointy end?
Is there any problem with stuff falling out when you want to get into the bottom of the bag? Guess it will be a question of packing the stuff you are less likely to need down there.
