After the Kona got stolen from uni, weve been inundated with generous offers from people for free bikes.
Weve got a Raleigh Panache which unfortunatly was too big, and a Saracen Kili Team, but the seatpost is well and truly stuck into the frame.
So she bought herself an Apollo CX10 Hybrid PoS.
After deciding were going to Canada/Whistler for our Honeymoon shes said she wants to build a new bike.
So, weve managed to secure an On-One Inbred 456 Frame 14", which can run either a 4, 5 or 6 inch fork up front.
Planning on getting some Rockshox Pike forks up front, some Mavic EN721 rims, hope hubs, Avid Juicy brakes, Raceface cranks, Sram 9.0 rear mech, XT front and X9 shifters. Gonna be pimp tbh.
