Omg dude, just read your intro on your website, had a feeling I recognised the pictures......I was seriously looking at buying your bike.....was it on ebay last year around July/Aug time?

Yes oliherst, it was!

Good job you didn't buy it :P, otherwise it would never have turned out like it did today!

A select few may also have recognized the original bike from my days around the box/bury hill area (craig,maxypoop77,etc).


As an update, I have just popped the carbon tail out of the mould, it should be ready to put on the bike soon.

Everything else is working great, got the under-seat tank finished and working fine with the pump.
I will get a load more pictures up in a few days hopefully.

I have such a bad memory, can't believe I recognised it. I think it was becuase I was impressed that you had made the effort to take the bike out and get some good pictures ;)

I love your site too, I'm glad I found it again as was looking for it earlier in the year......will remember to bookmark it this time :mrgreen:

That seat unit is very special!!! It looks mint

I think you're gonna have to carry some lead weights around wherever you go to stop the bike from floating off - it'll be so light!!!

You have serious skills!!! The carbon is amazing!
The way you explain how you do it makes it sound so easy. Is it expensive to make stuff out of carbon yourself? The resin and the carbon itself, the release wax and stuff like that?
Could you give an estimate on how much it would cost to get the materials to make something like a front fender?
