You hate the dog, your leather seat needs recovering... ... ...

Its impossible to hate my puppy haha. Shes a minature wolfhound, she has a little beard & is totally scruffy. Also with the seat, the base is chewed to shite too id need a new pan, padding & cover I.E a whole new seat.

More a case of what my 5 month old puppy did to my bike today. My mum found her chewing my custom Native seat to bits, Absolutely gutted! £70 seat in pieces! Not sure what to do with it right now.

Got mine red & stripped it lol, would explain why the look the same! My bolts were rusted to buggery but i bought an old Redneck LT off a guy on here & he kindly sent a spare set of bolts with it so they were used. I would love to get some Blue6 Ti bolts for mine too, just top it off. Oh well, maybe, hopefully someday they will be back.

For those with Primo Strand V2s, The steerer tube is 175mm, which is too long for my liking. How much can you cut them down before cutting into the threads? is 160mm do-able? Cheers guys.

what do you guys think is the new "take ivy 3"? In their time they stood as the best lookin frames. Is there any frame now that sets the level?

TBH, i think you should just go with an Ivy 5. Especially in the new limited signal blue.
