Bargain buys thread

[the drizzle]

Didn't notice spitty initially for some reason, but yup it's there too! Is it my eyes or did the XL just go!? Was that you @the drizzle ?

It was me.

only in big boy sizing

Medium in my old one is a little cramped...but the v3 are noticeably longer

No spitty?

Someone buy it before the wife asks why I went from 5 working bikes to 2 working bikes plus 3 projects...

Get the same colour as your other bikes.
Send it to a friends house, rub in dirt and bring home as 'that old thing'. Easy............... errr...........

Ha! Built a Ti roadie because it blended in withe brushed alu gravel bike. The XC dually is silver and multiplied a hadtail also in silver. Thank goodness the banshee in my size only comes in black - a colour I do not own. Then again I could go at it with a sander.

I would like the large spitty....ST is JUST short enough for me....but they don't stock non boost dropouts, and won't get me one

What about the Missing Link guy here in CBR? I was hopinh I could get non-Boost for the V3 frames as its all part of my stealth upgrade plan...

Oh well thanks for helping me with an averted purchase. Have a bunch of stuff ready to move onto that frame. But it was all non-boosty.

*edit: was also out for the large.

Maybe. Hoping someone else buys quickly. Not a fan of stealth black, and prefer M.

Boost rear kit is cheap enough. Do it for me.

You cloud and these is always handy can of plastdip in the colour of your choice. I should take my own advice I guess

Unfortunately not.

So at least 2 sales from my post - reckon mtbdirect will sell me an XL prime when back in stock for these prices as a reward?
