That's an XL Orange Clockwork Evo. Fairly slack and very long with 130mm travel forks. Built it up from a frame sold to me by Fall Line Cycles in Peebles.
Nice ...
Nice build mate... But the camera angle is messing with my mind! Lol
I had to do what I could with the limited blue sky available to me while ensuring I kept my lawn out of shot. 🙂 Which meant I forgot to make sure that the cranks and wheels were properly lined up - rookie errors!
This should be in the [i]"How much bling?"[/i] thread as an example.
Tasteful, not overdone, 2 colours, just right, Nice bike!
Cheers. The rim and fork stickers were the only bits where colour matching actually cost me extra but orange and black is such a nice combination and fairly easy to do well that I think it was worth it.
This might be travesty but I think XL hardtails look better in aluminium than steel, the downtube looks more in proportion. That looks great! I miss my orange and black Soul on aesthetic grounds, both my bikes are fully murdered out...
Very nice that. I was torn between one of those and a Cotic Solaris. Went with the cotic in the end and don't regret it but I don't think i'd have regretted getting one of those either!!
Back in 2003 or so I saw an orange Mk1 Soul being wheeled out of the workshop at an LBS and I immediately thought "that is the colour that MTBs should be". I've had a few orange bikes since then but I'm pretty sure this is the best looking bike I've owned to date.
I was initially looking at 29er hardtail frames but eventually decided that the Clockwork's geometry (plus colour options and availability frame only) made it the best option for me.
