Here is my version of Ed's Crapper. I talk about it all the time but I realized today when I was washing the fleet that I had never posted a picture. The stem and bars are stupidly high, but that will be remedied soon. I am also contemplating at a rigid fork but after the last two rides I am thinking that may I should rethink.

Part one of the xc to trail rebuild started today with the delivery of my bb7 front brake and rhyno lite rims/DT Swiss spoke/Deore hub wheelset, and sd7 brake levers. After a quick trip to the LBS to get some cable and rim strips, I got the front all set up. After a medium ride, the pads are bedded in nicely with no squealing.

Part two of the rebuild will only comprise of installing a Rock Shox Tora 302 coil fork as well as a new stem to replace the damper free Manitou that is currently there

Happen to have a handy photo for the latest bike I just finished up. Not really new, although there are a few new parts I treated myself to, it's a new/replacement Nomad frame SC provided (old one cracked). Seat/post were just for holding it in the rack, a Gravity Dropper goes on when I take it off the rack in a few minutes for it's first ride...

Nice, I am jealous! :)

Just did some cleanup.

new saddle? I always have a hard time picking out changes in your photos.

saddle, rotors, grips.

whats wital that extra rear cable housing? are you missing a stop on the seatstay or something. that looks like it would just be flapping in the breeze

New mud.

Dan's naked fork reminds me that the Angry Asian (or at least his site) is no longer. >sniff< :(

Quick shot of the f400.
