I never really posted this thing up properly, just a pic and a comment… I think I was afraid someone would say something harsh and then I’d have to find where they lived and so on… but after 8 months or so togehter, we are beyond all that
I might make a few changes in the coming months, so good to document this incarnation.

Aeons, its just beside Lake G, at John Knight park… that little cascade made me stop and take a pic… I’ve never really noticed it before.
Luke, yeah, i dont mind the white fork! Got a couple of spare decal sets in different colours if I change fork colour and want something on the frame to match… I would actually be keen on a trad SID blue fork next.
Got 1 x 10 kit coming for it… I love SS a lot, but there are some rides that I can only do geared and after a month of compaigning for a new geared hardtail I am still struggling to conivnce K… so gears on this. I’m actually really pumped about it.
