Just read through all 31 pages - lots of inspiration!
I'm new to the KM world and so far, I'm happy!
Was riding a KHS Solo One SE, but
I broke it.
Started looking around for something to replace it. I was calling dealers finding out how the distributors for Surly are messed up in Australia at the minute and you pretty much can't buy a new one when Chris at Cheeky Transport mentioned that he had an old one (frame only) for sale. Perfect I thought - snapped it up, swapped over my parts and riding again!
Wheels and fork from KHS Solo One SE (front just re-built by me because it kept snapping spokes)
FSA X-Drive Cranks
Bars, stem and levers from my old '02 Trek Bruiser
It's a large (20"). I was a bit concerned about this before buying but the previous owner was about my size and said it worked for him. Now that I have a few hours on it I really think I would be better off with a 18". The KHS was a 16" and I'm glad this is larger.
Anyone in Australia have a similar age 18" they would like to swap for a 20"?
Brakes are my next planned upgrade - Shimano SLX. Gotta stop braking stuff so I can afford to do it.
This is my only dirt bike and it does at least 100km/week.
