I've wanted a klein for a few years, And no, it has nothing to do with penises.

As far as the forks I might put on a set of manitou six sport with V mounts, But I don't know yet....

I had a DMR once, It broke within 2 days of me having it, I never bought another one so that's my reason for so much hate towards those bikes.

That's fair enough, but so far this one has been great, no creaks or odd noises. But i'll keep this in mind and check the frame more vigilantly

2nd pond is now being built with maybe a moving water feature connecting them, salmon leaping ?

Don't do that Dar -  the frame deserves so much better than that!

Really?  how the fcuk did you manage that? 

I don't know. I am notorious for breaking bikes by all the people who know me. In fact up to last weekend the Seven and the S-Works Tarmac were the only bikes I hadn't managed to break. But the weekend before last I was out for an early morning ride riding some pretty techy sort of stuff when I heard a strange noise from the bike (a bit like loose change jangling in your pocket). I got off and inspected the bike and found a small crack on the down-tube starting from the head-tube/down-tube gusset. It should be covered under warranty at least that is what Seven said in their email. Only trouble is the new design features a bent down tube where it meets the head-tube which I am not all together sure I like aesthetically speaking even though it is supposed to be stronger. 

I am sad for you - hope they sort you out.

Thanks Dar

Thinking of something like this between the 2 would it be a bit over the top ?
