Ive taken the rear end of my DHR and mounted on the front ender of my Rail to get more travel, a stiffer rear end and longer wheelbase.

I only have the 165mm i2i shock so it's super slack and crazy to ride but I want to make sure it's holding up. Should have a 190mm i2i RP23 on Tuesday so that will sort the geometry out and up the travel to the 160mm Im looking for.

It was Turners 4x bike back in 06, I believe there were only 20 made, now 19 and a rear end.

I think Im settling for an 11 start for me at Chingford and to be at Carls for 12.

Was hilarious today, my bikes a nightmare to pedal. The pedals were an inch form the ground on the straihgts and the corners were fine, plus the wide bars were interesting through certain parts. All I can say is bring on my new shock and the bike will be a beast.
