I love birthdays 8)

From that someone special or to yourself? Either way nice frame and fire, prefer dogs 😀

not cat burning, solaris admiring people with wood?

Get it built then…

Both !

You’ll enjoy that …I frikkin love mine!

If I can offer one piece of advice, if you like rattling downhill fit 120 forks. It’ll still climb very well but will descend very well.

Excuse brake hoses …I still haven’t got round trimming them after 4 months’ riding!

My lovely bike – Cotic Solaris with 120 Marzocchis by photo moose, on Flickr

Naranjada. Yes it’s going to have 120’s In the shape of Marzocchi 44 Ti 29er’s 🙂

Yep, that’s what I’ve built mine with.

Nice forks, I think mine might need a service soon.

I find them very good in actual use. Don’t be alarmed if you sense that they are fluttering a bit under braking etc, I guess their length works against them but they feel plush and stiff enough. The first part of the travel on mine is a bit ‘sticky’ when doing a carpark test. I think a service might help with that. 7/10
