1.75s would be awesome, l
lookin good greg, how does she ride? n how much of a work of art is that fookin frame :4_17_5:
-
Good that you went with the A Brake Greg make a big difference to that frame if the wheel is as slammed as possible. I think Leary designed this as a do it all frame for race and trails which is why it weighs a bit more than your average race frame at 5 1/2 pounds. Enjoy the ride :daumenhoch:
-
Awesome build as usual Greg......get it in BOTM :daumenhoch:

-
Oh and I like the Brackens banner in the background too :daumenhoch:

They do the Dirt Monster tans in 1.95 and 2.2 over at w@nkstanleys for £12.99 each :)
I might have a set of Standard Byke Co pre-bash race/dirt forks kicking around (they have thinner drops) that'd be era correct, but from memory the steerer's cut down......will have a look if you're interested?
-
the forks are good but heavy daz has got some alloy answers for it if i want em .just cant decide/afford em yet
-
