New bike complete tested and……………………

i fell off twice on test run ! I Blame the tyres (Blush)
me and the dug had quick blast round my wee test track loop
Now nursing a sore bruised knee ,sore face but still happy 😆

just waiting on maxxis advantage tyres arriving and im off to innerleithen xc for fun fun fun

a few mobile pics below

maybe a tad LOUD for some but i went a wee bit radio rental in i-cycles

Rarely comment on stuff but that looks lovely.

Never mind the bike – what mobile did you get such good photo’s from?

btw the bike is nice in a subtle understated kind of way 🙂

Very nice – but the colour of the front brake hose is not acceptable. 😆

It looks nice 🙂

Hope that’s not your lawn – leaves need raking…

Lovely bike, btw

Very nice bike indeed

Strange Christmas tree hedge though

thanks for the comments folks
i had nuke proo bar ,stem and post as well but when i fitted the thomson silver stuff it looked better imho

the mobile is just a standard sony erricsson w995

Deluded i would have had a white goodridge on the front also but steve at i-cycles only had one in stock.
the goodridge line was the only part i did not fit ( i feel a failure ) 🙄

oddjob look out on the classifieds for the minature xmas trees 😆

they failed to grow as they are under a huge cheery tree that hoovers up all the water

I actually like that… the yellow stuff works well on the grey, better than against the common black bikes IMHO. Has a bit of a Safety Tape look about it, but I like.

Looks like Steve and Eliot sorted you out a gooden.

Hope to see you/it around Inners… I’m a local boy. Keep an eye out for a minty green SC Superlight… or candy red Bullit, which I’ll be riding the uplift tomorrow on.

Top job, looks really good

Apart from the grips that looks great!

Not sure about the yellow!

Needs some yellow on the saddle.

Stoo mr deas actually talked me out of buying the yellow wheels because he does not like yellow !

I suggested he go on a course to stop talking people out of sales !
To be honest me being
15 stone had a lot to do with the wheel choice 😆
i have not been up riding much pro lapsed disc,work ,baby etc but im kickin keen to get back out

p.s this was my first night at innerleithen xc many moons ago

I am sure about the yellow, ebay the wheels and bin the grips, also needs a black seat post and stem

whats going on with the right angle bend on the rear hose on the chain stay?

Yellow seat post collar would set off the yellow a treat.
What wheels , look like Deemax, but they arent are they?

wheels are nuke proof which are sun ringle (;-0)

not sure about routing but i noticed the orange built bikes are the same

Rear cable routing is the same on mine, although i have the hose under the bottom bracket.

Really like that. Agree about the need for a yellow seat clamp. Maybe different handlebars too?

i have got nuke proof black and yellow stem,bar and post to fit but in the flesh i preffered the thomson post and stem

😯
maybe my taste just sucks !

are you guys taking the piss RE yellow seat clamp???????
cant say i have seen one but

OOOERRRRRRRRR

Hoping to lasso some passing wildlife with the gear cables ? 😉

i would have loved one of these

but £3300 ??????
i got the frame with 60% off and with a bit of jiggery pockery i managed to come in around the £1500 mark

innerleitheen xc with wee detour to three brethern nest satb

🙂

sorry my arse is now moulded to charge spoon got three of them !

pinky ponk it more of a titanium colour in the day light
i was not sure but im delighted i picked that colour now
maybe bump in to you on the trail soon

that would be mega.
are you pleased with the way it rides ?

yes but early days i just had it round my wee test track in jedburgh
6km font door to back (;-0)
feel free to give it a go some time
type in jedburgh and click on zack track

tyres are pish so i have gota set of maxxis advantages on route

i do think in sunlight its more titanium looking

that welding is just dirty 🙂 good work!!!

I like the yellow bits OP 😮

nice…
understated yet enough to make a statement (I know what I mean)

I like that….v nice to see a bike that’s not just silver or black

IMO you need a pair of these grips

actually mine is different to yours. yours must be the updated version, your chainstays and shock linkage look different. Same colour though, mine has the bendy stays. hope its not too flexy !
