ohh, that IS looking nice. nothing too overstated, but still stands out

whats next on the cards ?
 
as comfortable as the seat may look, dang its fugly... looks like it could take off
When I first saw it online it looked very nice, which it kinda is. Not to bad for the price. but after sitting on it today I decided
to buy a wtd silverado or devo. I should have it on by early next week...

Other than that I'm very happy with everything else. Especially the bars n forks!

Trick, well done. Nice spec.
Broken wrists suck, glad to hear it's healed.

It's like 3 of my friends said when they saw it yesterday. --> You have to see it in person to really appreciate it...

The pictures don't do it justice

Testing it out this morning at my local trail only 4 miles away =)

I just fapped to this. :p

At first I thought *yup this is gonna look a dodgy paintjob*. But as I saw the 3rd picture and went throughout the rest of them, I was jaw-droppingly amazed. This is now my dream bike. :) Lovin it!

How do you rate those continental kaiseres? Have you used them before this build, worth the extra money over the old minnions. Thanks
 
Here's my new DH helmet to go with my Horse :clap2:
They don't match but who wouldn't make it work right :eek:range:

Switched forks to the 40's
