I was looking for a frame to make a monstercross bike, this old Mongoose Pro Sandvik TST frame popped up for relatively little money. It had a too long toptube for roadbars so I took what I had lying around and made this. The Mosso fork is too short for the frame so it is a very fast steering bike. Light and fun, set up with 8 speed gearing.I never thought I would use the fleamarket Scott Bullhorns I have had lying around for years, they are a bit over the top.

Wow! I have not seen those Scott bar ends for some time.

Great bike.

Wow, that's pretty snappy.

woops

http://i.imgur.com/Jn8XT.jpg sorry for crappy cell phone pic..its a prototype Cannondale frame a guy from my work got from a c-dale rider. manitou match fork. BB7's. thomson stem/post bontrager rhythm rear bontrager race disc front. 1x8 SRAM X7 ( soon to be 1x9)

Nice bike, but I'm certain that the match is a Manitou product, not marzocchi.

haha thank you. i was getting my forks mixed up. i have a marzocchi on my other bike.

My new (to me) 1996 Trek 830, with new brakes, trigger shifters, and bar-ends. I'm thinking of doing a drop bar conversion, these flat bars are really awkward to me, even with bar-ends.

Here is my Sovereign. It is a great bike, really fun to ride!

It lives!

I thought you'd sent the TA down the road.

Oh no. As my primary XC ride, the Kamui/Revelation combo is stupid fun, but...

Since I had this frame still kicking around, and the Lyrik sitting around (since it can work on pretty much any of my frames as a back up fork if need be...) it gave me an excuse to build another bike. Not your average SS bike, but fun. Figure it'll be the one to ride to work when snowy, throw studs on for winter ice rides, and general screwing around trialsy fun. The Lyrik at 160mm on the front of this makes it an even more capable bike when pointed down, but is more fork than I want on my daily driver rides. Thus the Kamui/Revelation combo - that bike is a rocketship up and down, so long as I'm not sloppy in line choice.

New bar and grips. Wheels are off the Reign-X, giving me an excuse to get a new wheel-set for it, which is a new set up Hope hubs and Flow rims. Got a cheapy Azonic set for it as well, with full DH tires for certain days. And a non-droppy seatpost and QR clamp for those days as well.

Remember kids: N+1 is the rule.

Rode the Kamui yesterday, the RX today at the same trails. Mixing things up is good.

Hi old guy from Japan, here's my crapper ride.

Nice 456c toastedone, I had to decide between that and my Sovereign. The Sov won out because it was cheaper at the time, and I didn't want to have to deal with carbon paste or the worry of it somehow breaking. If I had a more stable income I probably would have gone with the 456c.
