Just read through your whole build! Very nice work. I really like the lines now. Looking forward to seeing it completed. This actually helps to keep me motivated on my build.
Well as they always do, plans change. I've got a short list of work to do and this bike will be going up for sale soon so I can fund my other build.
Build update coming soon!
Well, the winter finally seems to be coming to an end around here and it's warming up again. I've started planning my summer work and some progress on this project is in order.

Finally im home from trips for work and was able to go pick up the completed hardtail.
Here's a quick sneak peak, more to come later after I get it on the table and strip the rest of the paint off the frame.
