I was sipping on my Cornish Rattler wondering the same thing... the worst is realising there are still parts needed to complete the bikes... stupid things like one fork decal, era pedals, left hand levers instead of right etc

There are 6 in my conservatory in varying states of completion and one in the loft, I sense compromises coming to get them done... :(

I've just had the "oh sh!t" factor kick in and I haven't even got everything to finish off one of my builds and seriously need to get down to my LBS to fit  some BB cups...

Dunno how I'm gonna get them built as I've got me birthday this week (away next weekend) and then go away weekend of the 24/07 for a weeks fishing and then straight into MK10 when i get back  :-\

Steve, I've got a rear gold 7X in bits waiting to be re-laced to finish my Team Mongoose and has been for three months :'(

Got a Haro Sport in bits waiting for powder-coat, and has been for 12 months :'( :'( :'( :-[

Only my POS shit-styler Haro is ready, and it's shod with vert tyres, so christ only knows what I'm gonna race in the novice race this year again - best throw summat together after the 2am club bud :LolLolLolLol: :LolLolLolLol:

PANIC :uglystupid2: :uglystupid2: :uglystupid2: :uglystupid2: :uglystupid2: :uglystupid2: :uglystupid2:

Spen :shocked:

Not too bad, very nearly done.  :coolsmiley:

Taking 4 show bikes, 3 are completed and the last one is just the Elina seat to finish. I'm also taking a rider for bombing about on but i need to put some Profiles on that and also change the pedals from DX's to Hutch. Will probably do that tomorrow afternoon.
One build a year, the only way to get it right. No rushing involved.

I would love the thrill of trying to get a show bike or 2 done again this year, but due to rubbish situation at work all i will be doing is selling off bits to pay the bills.  :(
