I've just located and purchased my first barcode frame.

2004 eurocode with seatstay mounts, I sold it 11 years ago and can't wait for it to arrive.

So after selling my pretty sexy barcode 4 years ago and only riding MTB since I finally bought another BMX. It's a bit mid skool and upgrades are coming (maybe another barcode if I can find one).

Already ordered profile cassette on cinema 777 rim then new tyres are next.

Long time no post....
So I binned the Trek off as it just felt so loose, replaced it with a Saracen Myst, which feels incredible.



I have also just finished building a hardcore hardtail - on one 45650b.

Decided to give the trails a miss today and take the cube out & explore some off road/canal path routes for my commute to work. Here she is in full commute mode with saddlebag, pump & lights.

I need to raise the seat a little more and drop the tyres pressures a bit but I love how it rides.

I've just ordered myself a Planet X rt58 alloy with sram apex for commuting. Bargain at £455!

Well I've cancelled my order after thinking about what I really needed.....cube cross race arrives tomorrow. Much more suited to the roads & opens up a bridle way route to work also.
