    There’s no rain, which has certainly been in evidence everywhere I’ve been for the last month. Are you in California?

    You have the bike the wrong way round, forks look like they’re on back to front but aren’t or it’s got a funny seatpost in it?

    – Cranks/Pedals all alignment game is off
    – Rear disk possibly bigger than front but may just be perspective
    – Flat pedals
    – Too many headset spacers

    – Fence doesn’t need painting
    – No weeding required

    Forks look a bit odd, if it weren’t for the disc mount I’d wonder if they were backwards.

    Well done xcstu you win…..well nothing but well spotted. I bought the frame as a quick spin round the woods bike and remembered I had some carbon planet x forks so it took me a few hours and some paint and decals to match them up to the frame. I doubt it will be long before some bounce is put in their place .

    I can live with the wheels as they were off of the classifieds and are in excellent condition.

    This is how technical bike pics should be taken. I know what a chainset looks like. Its the same on every bike. For a bike pic I’m interested in the bike so show the non drive side. Bike mags take note, especially on a full suss.

    Too many spacers above da headset 🙄
    And…
    Well the stems no where near long enough now is it 😛

    And flats..

    Other than that, nice bike.

    Can you come round and do my Garden? You’ve done a decent enough job of yours, ta 😆

    It was pit together mainly from my parts bin so it’s as it is. Flats for me everytime and the spacers are there to help with my poor back . It rides well though and I’m sorting the brakes very soon as they were the only adaptors I had to hand on sunday.

    No, it’s a long way away.

    That looks like a resprayed On-One monocoque fork, and probably the frame isn’t a Niner either…

    l.e.: ok, so the frame is a Niner, wasn’t sure about the IS mount. Still… that fork is unmistakable 🙂

    Yes the fork lol I’m not sold on rigid so £450 for a niner fork probably won’t happen. And your bang on the fork was repayed by yours truly and the decals were £6. Worth a punt to make it look better as the forks were originally black and didn’t match the frame at all.
