So so so, look what turned up today!
Obviously needs a good cleaning up, lots of clear protect wrap peeling on the back triangle, but still can’t believe I scored a N4 frame for so cheap, fair enough lurking under the paint there are some repairs, but if they turn out fine (and chatting more to the previous owner I think they will be) this thing will be perfect for the duties it will see.
Pretty sold on sanding it back to the carbon and doing a clear over the top (maybe with some silver leaf decals), but I do sorta like the white and black too....or I could ask my brother what he prefers seeing how it’s going to be his.....nah, fuck that.
And I think it’s going to stay 27.5 both ends, been thinking about the mullet but I reckon it’ll end up too high in the front and the seat angle will be almost horizontal. I could always run a less travel fork to compensate, but then what’s the point? I might however throw on a short offset fork. And just doing the maths to see if ill trim the seat post down or not.
