I've been out of this game for a long time after selling my ancient heckler but a load of 26" parts and a bit of an impulse frame purchase saw this taking shape. Shake down complete, I can't wait to get out riding for the first time in ages.

That looks great, just because things have changed it doesn't mean your bike has got worse.
I realised a while back that all my stuff is old fashioned (some of is just old, old). But I don't care, I really don't. I maintain it well so it works as well as it ever did and (as long as I don't have a go on anything better) I'm quite happy.

I've been putting together a mess around bike and realised it's actually a bit anti-fashion (is that a thing?). It wasn't meant to be, it's just made from bits I had kicking about; tiny steel frame, 24" QR wheels, 25.4mm bars with a massive rise, thick heavy pedals etc.

Keeping up with modern bikes on stuff like this is a sad and lonely pastime with only slowly shaking heads and looks of pity given, rather than the admiration I deserve godamnit!
