Converted the KM to a studded tire road warrior, but now that the roads are wide enough to feel safe riding, the studs aren't needed.



All the kool kids have been raving about Niner carbon forks; being as impressionable as I am I had to get one.

My Tallboy, completed Christmas Day :)

I am working on a super top secret SS build with a few bits custom by me. I am still waiting on the chainring from homebrew components, but I have everything else otherwise!
just some name dropping to hint:

American Classic
Chris King
Hope
Formula
Easton
bit of titanium
and a bit of carbon.

I like the color on that, looks good!
not finised

This is all I have, but the spokes and nips are on order, and Walt finished the frame and sent it to powdercoat yesterday. I'm excited, so I had to post.

Here is my new ride. Can't wait to ride it, the snow is almost gone. This frame only cost me an expensive purse for the fiance.

Access 29er. Good so far. It's actually a bit big for me.



I didn't specifically build it for winter, but it's an aluminum hardtail... the choice is obvious. I think of the Singular Swift rusting (although its FrameSaver treated) and the myriad of pivot points on the RX29er getting crudded up and binding. The only issue is that the Reba has leaking seals in the air spring. I bought a new o-ring kit for it. I just have to find the time to take the fork apart and clean it out.

Dude! What Kona is that, what I really want to know is, is that carbon?

Looks like a Big Unit, which is steel.
Just waiting for the last of the snow to melt and then it gets ridden...

The Kona frame above is a Big Unit and it is Scandium.

I lost my mind this winter,

Built this for myself


Built this for my lady, she supports my bike madness, so this was a thanks, anything that was blue was swapped out for purple or black.
