Why? I mean you took a department store bike with shotty frame craftsmanship and threw a whole bunch of parts on it. Here is what you should do. Put those parts on a worthy frame. |

Actually, it is an Austin Mini, much smaller than a Morris.

I don't post much, and I don't think I've posted a pic yet so here goes:
http://home.earthlink.net/~tzvia/images/mtb2.jpg It's an Anthem-W (cus I'm a short girl). Changed a few things, wheels, crankset, Masterpiece seatpost and Raceface NEXT SL carbon bars. Yea the pedals are really old (like from the 90's) Time Carbons but they work great so they were the only thing I took from my old ride, a Proflex 856. Tzvia |
