About
update: finally finished! been in the works for a couple weeks. i’m happy now!
update: just waiting on the FD. getting the new SLX compact for a double crank!
Woo-hoo! This frame (my dream) was up on eBay for $200. Yes, it’s the ladies version, but the geometry fits me better anyway. It’s still exactly the same frame as the men’s Vertex 70. So, better fit, and amazing price. Why not?
Can’t wait to hit the trails with this baby!
(Yes, I know the blue tires are gonna look like ass with the pink decals, but I promise I’ll replace them as soon as they wear out!!)

Mention Pink and Bike and Eric will be drooling. Kind of like Pavlov's dog.
