Na, ive not had a white bike since my Haro Sport in 84  

Mine does have chain stay brake mounts too. Yours must be an early one as well

2006 mine, but ordered with chainstays, as they were a lighter option.

yours looks the bowlocks

ahh but white is the future,

[elevensies]

actually mine was raw, then black, and now white, but as im never gona build it up and its staying ''on the wall'' white was my decorative colour of choice lol

I got mine sometime in the mid 2000's. It was one of the first LAFs. The dropouts were quite big. I cut them down quite a bit. I have got a new bike now (a custom ATF, which it pretty much the same as the LAF was). Now the LAF is set up as a race/trails bike. Not that I do much of either.

Here's how it looked when it was my main bike. Over its life I changed/painted the forks, changed bars a few times, and seat.

Mark,

Del has the Neal Wood scans I believe? and I still have your old Troy lee grey/black and white jersey if you want it back?

bludy hel mark, i had forgot about that top, you want rid then?


yeah i been in contact with del, and he says he has the scans, just waiting for the final bits and bobs to arrive for it it then its build up and see if im keeping the original ones on it or put new on, to be honest the ones on it are near perfect.

oh an propper forks too

[SaMAlex]

I just checked, I got mine in April 06. Here's when I opened the box (see how big the dropout was on the first ones).
Also Pre XLT pitchforks (when you could get brake mounts as stock), and SMAL SLAM bars (I ended up using BSD bars).

[elevensies]

wow thats a propper selection of goodies

yeah mine is later 2006 with smaller dropouts, and a really rough LAF welded lettering, but i dont care,

in fairness i prefer my v1 stricker, it just seems ''harder'' an heavier

 

[elevensies]

oh an i wish i had kept all me boxes/wrappers/cardboard bits

but then again my missis says our house is full of bikes and rags anyway
