SS MTB project is nearly finished with paint. Needs a clear coat and then it's done. Oh, and Nathan, I didn't paint it without removing the headset/fork. I just shoved the fork back in after paint dried to get a good image of the frame.  |

Ok, update on the MOUNTAIN BIKE: Paint + clear coat is done. Just needs to cure for a week. New canti brakes + levers came in mail. Still need: single speed crank from ebay, a working back wheel (i think dave said he had one for me at the co-op), and oury grips.  |

Hmm, it might have to be that if dave doesn't still have that wheel.
Are you still trying to get a 29er? Get one so you can shred some gnar with austin and I.

I think the rim Dave is talking about is a 700 and also a 48h, unless he's talking about a different rim I don't know about

Also, your polo bike is looking good, but it's hard to tell, are there two brake levers, you only need one for polo.

I think the rim Dave is talking about is a 700 and also a 48h, unless he's talking about a different rim I don't know about I'm pretty sure he said it was 26" in the text. God damnit, he needs to get his computer fixed. I told him I'd give it a shot. Haha at the polo references. I'll still come out! Don't worry. And austin, yes. They have clearance, and those are what I'm going to need seeing as how this is a rigid frame. |

The fork alone is like $300. If i got it and changed my mind i could part it for more then it cost.
