I've now sorted my little mishap and i've also shortened all cables and removed the spoke protector from the rear wheel. Now I just need to learn a bit more about this coil suspension as that's all alien to me, wouldn't be surprised if I changed the rear shock for a Vivid Air lol Betty, I've decided not to use the Saint shifter on this bike, keeping that for another project! Canny have a bike thread without the Commie making an appearance lol Now I just need to get some action shots!

You'll have to let me know how it rides
Coil is easy to work out mate, you just need to play about with it and see what suits you
I run my forks and shock quite stiff as I prefer it that way
