Thanks for all the replys!
The pic was my bike just after i finished building her, though only the frame, forks & rubber were new. A year on she is still looking good!
The short stem is how I like it as i love riding the gnarly bits of the dark peak – the riding is totally shite round here, wouldnt be too bad on an xc HT but it bores me to death!
Alex will take you up on your offer, I get plenty of time off in the week as I work shifts!
