Monster, Monsteur, Monstour , 26/29+ and Expedition and Adventure bikes

I know this thread is all about slammed stems and pristine photography so I give to you:

saw this frame on the bay, bit pricey but would be a sweeeeet base for an adventure build...http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/182569539370?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

has 26s in the pic but deff for 700s

Gnar-commuted my way to the train station.

Best type of commute.

I really must get a set of 650b wheels for my old airborne titanium.... with drops on it would be so good. If I could get a pair that convert from qr to 12mm bolt through both ends, I could use them on the sequoia too. Any cheap ones going? 👍

I hope this is a suitable thread: I'm looking for recommendations for a set of OTP 29er, 6 bolt disc, QR wheels. After something "value-for-money but not shit": the bike is mostly commuted on, but does see some occasional, not very gnarly off-road action.

My mate pinged a spoke and the rest are loose, but the alu nipples are seized: not worth getting them respoked, as the rear is actually a skinny, rim brake, road job. #thanksHalfords

TIA!

looks fun! is this replacing your surly KM? wut fork btw?

super cheap ones at planet x (and also superstar I think) at the mo as they clear out old stock.

That looks lovely!
But it would look even better with a black brooks flyer and regular seatpost imo.

V. nice! Similar to what I'm trying for with n+1, but not sure if I'll have tyre clearance.

A belated thanks, but he's getting a new bike now instead of new wheels.

[sob] So proud. [sob]

What stem, please?

Not specified on Pedalroom. Should ask @mankkis

Love that frame

good lord, both bikes are amazing

looks like an old GT ahead stem with integrated clamp

Its not a +tyre bike but shes my tank / pack mule

My Bombtrack hook EXT is currently at the painters.... lets just say it is not going to end up black and white....

Which paint shop did you use?

Painter is Andy from http://www.7potcustompaint.co.uk/

Decided to stop fucking around and get some winter tyres on El Wolveur

Feeling rather smug that I managed to mount the tyres tubeless, without any swearing or mess.
