This is a build from scratch. The frame is as bare as you can get. No paint, no clear. Nothing.
A friend is beginning to import a range of bikes. Fat, Enduro, XC race, road. Components are also in the horizon with seats, posts, bars and wheels either complete or rims only.
This bike will hopefully showcase the frame, bars, seatpost and seat if I can bear the naked carbon seat!!
Some parts will be off my current ride, the wheels, stem, bars, grips, maybe fork until I can get one at a good price!
The frame has been delivered to Disciple Graphics https://www.facebook.com/Disciple-Graphics-366307910066888/ and instructions given regarding details and finish date. I would like the bike painted and bb/headset installed before my birthday which is the end of the month !
