my brother built this bike originally in about 1999, rode it for many years then he moved to the capital so cant ride it so it was left in a garage for 2 years, then he gave it to me to see if i could make better use of it, so i used it but didnt change it for a year. then i played with it :)

Current Stage Info:
Been getting more interested in trials and tricks but it was starting to take its toll on my suspension forks, so got these off a friend and has changed the whole game for the better. I know its ugly and mishmash but its all there for a reason and purpose
