    How have I missed this thread? Looks like she’s doing amazing!

    The pink and purple bits thing seems to remain consistent as they get older….

    Binnerette number 2 absolutely loves the pump track next to the velodrome

    @poah Where did you source the forks from? Are they straight steerer 1 1/8?

    @trickydisco I got them from starbike and they are tapered with boost spacing.

    When i search for those forks that come on the build they come up as normal 1 1/8?

    I put an external headset (purple) on the bike.

    Loving this thread.

    MiniMonkey V1 (4.5) is currently riding a Wildbike which is surprisingly awesome, but in a couple of years I can definitely see us upgrading to something like this.

    Of course I’ll have to get a new bike to keep up…

    ah ha. So i guess modern bikes make the headtube that can accommodate multiple fork standards and use headsets to control which type? Looks like the higer end model has a tapered steerer but the base model is straight steerer.
