Shiny Pt. 6...

Been wanting to ride a bit of 26" again, and after building one of these frames up for a customer I couldn't resist any longer! This is pretty much the perfect frame for me - weight, geo, colour, disc only... and they are no longer being produced, so I couldn't miss out.

Built it up with some existing parts and some new ones, with durability and rideability in mind rather than going as light as I could.

Geo is: 1090, +45, 380, 72, full bike weight 9.08kg.
