Looking good.

How was the Boardman? I've had a few people ask me about them and it seems a great spec for the cash.

The Inbred will probably suit you then. I also like a long top-tube and find the 18" Inbred a great fit (I'm 5'9").

The last 456 had an On One Twelfty post which I believe to be in-line? That fitted great. This is mine (and my youngest sons) and its fitted with a 90mm Thomson stem which is how it was set up on my Stumpy hard tail.

Interesting stem choice, I had assumed that these frame were for up to around 90mm, rather than the race style flat and long as I'd never seen one with that style.

Looks very similar to an old bike of mine:

Thwang; is that the new colour of inbred? Looks slightly different to "strong blue"

Pimp my white bitch!

Almost finished. White bars+saddle en route. Probably too embarrassed to ride it when done.

Chain line is dead centre and chain will be tensioned correctly (just read article on Park website!) but if that fails, I like the look of the MRP jobby. IN WHITE!!!
