the world is now your take off ramp... enjoy reliving the 90s. :thumb:Older nomad I just built up. While it is a little small (toptube) for me- it should be a bit of fun.
Now I just need to find the skills I had in the 90s to put this bike through its paces.
Nice ride ^^^^here's my foxy.I'm bored so here's my new bicycle. Bigger and slacker than both my last 650b trail bikes (2014 sight 7.1 and 2015 lapierre zesty 527) yet a better pedaller and goes with out saying better descender. Got some real paces to take this bike through to truly test it though
They suck for bottle space don't they!Treated myself for Christmas last year. Perfect Tassie machine - just don't get too thirsty!

Any pics yet?Older nomad I just built up. While it is a little small (toptube) for me- it should be a bit of fun.
Frame- XL alloy
Fork- Lyric
Shock- Fox coil
Running gear- Full XT- 1 x 10speed
Brakes- XT
Wheels- Mavic SX
Tyres- Specialised
Cockpit- reverb, thomson stem, 785 raceface bars
Further changes if it works out and I like it- air shock, higher rise bars and shorter stem.
It came with 2 x 9 speed and bash guards and retention stuff, heavy ust tyres and ancient cockpit. I havent weighed it but the mods have dropped some serious weight
Now I just need to find the skills I had in the 90s to put this bike through its paces.
Pictures wont post for me atm
It's a Medium. 500ml Hi5 bottle is the only one that I found that fits!! Small price to pay though.
Rode with a few guys in France that had Dunes, rad bikes, love the forward Geo concept yet I'd still be on an XL with a 40mm stem, lanky limbs are fun..I'm bored so here's my new bicycle.

Would a side entry bottle cage be better? Then you may be able to wedge a bigger bottle in there.Treated myself for Christmas last year. Perfect Tassie machine - just don't get too thirsty!
