Thats what she ended up looking like just before going to the Alps this year, the last changes were a set of red V8s and an X9 mech when I tore the X7 off on the Mega qualification course....

What were you putting the brakes through to cook them up so easily...?

Nope, the C2s went to shit riding in the Midlands!  I think it was me being ham fisted and doing something thick, as they did work for a bit longer on an XC bike before they just died totally.

Lever back to the bar despite numerous bleeds, bolts falling off them because they were rounded and couldnt be tightened..... general lack of love.  Flogged em to someone for 20 quid for spares after one of the top caps got stuck on.

I see. I guess there's a lot to be said for regular maintainance.

Nice bike BTW...

Yup, frame shock and a seat clamp.  No mounting hardware or mech hanger.
