Sad to retire the old Jekyll, it's been a good 10 years and a good couple thousand kays on dirt across Vic, Tas and the ACT but 26 tyres are getting hard to find and the proprietary shock is a pain in the ass. Grabbed Kerplunk's frame and procrastinated for many months but finally got it built up. And man, YES, fucking internal cables without guide tubes can gargle my balls. Yet to cut, fit and bleed the rear brake, might get that done tonight.

The old girl has been great but is slightly too small. I'm gonna miss her. I picked up some cheap light wheels for the new build, I think I might need something sturdier at some point but I wanted to verify the larger frame size before I spent too much money.
