Hi All,

Here are a couple of pics of my MORALES Flatlander I bought F/F's of Dan Harris at MK.

I will do more pics when completed hopefully by next week

The MORALES is now complete after a couple of changes from the pics above:
Changed Bars to Hoffman Love Handles
Levers to Tech 99
Front Brake to a BOA
Tyres to Odyssey 20x1.90
Shimano DX's powdered by SBD

Cheers for looking

That looks awesome!! Love it! I was tempted with the one on ebay a few weeks back but my funds didnt stretch that far

Looks better than I thought, but still a bit pony.

Get back to work anyway you lazy sod.

My only gripe is the front brake.

Really nice!
Everyone agrees the seat has to go ..
Those tires are also not the best choice.. no flatlander would use such a wide a clunky tire.

By the way, if anyone is looking for a Morales frame, I will probably sell mine..

whats the best seat and tyres for this build and has anyone got them?

harris · « **Reply #18 on:** September 20, 2012, 07:46 PM »

i still love og v monster skin wall,very usable very nice,they do remakes modern but not good on high pressure .

Primo V-monster or Wall, ACS TRUE, maybe even Haro Multisurface II. Or you can get newschool Odyssey Frequency G tires.
Plastic seats would be mostly used like a Primo Steroid or GT, if you want a more comfortable ride Primo Hemorrhoid, Odyssey 99er would be the top choices.
