No, to some of that. I'm still right though - a black shock would make an awesome looking bike look even more awesomer. You see, I'm a bike tart - and unless you are a tart too, this is a wasted interaction. if you answered no to those questions, then u arent a tart I have burgtec bars, stem and pedals ive got hope grips to match my hope brakes, hubs and rotors got sram cranks so they match my sram gears That just says you are a bigger tart than me  |

Considering I wasn't sure initially, that is fucking stunning. Please never ever put a mudguard or a bottle cage on that. Please do get a black shock though. |

First off ..the bike looks brilliant,well done...however you managed to side step the seat post question quite nicely..but then I noticed the Orange you posted on the Bird Cycles thread was the same ....are you 8'6"...or what? |

Not quite no, I'm 6ft 3 and that pic of the crush was taken after that was put together so seat post isn't at the correct height either. |

A-ha ..should have guessed really ..you bought the frame off MB man ..and he's like 9'3" ...
I used to think I was tall at 6 '...but now I'm only a medium on the mtb-uk size chart ...anything less than this is nearly in the dwarf category...lol
