Spotter cross

No, it’s the only right thing to do.
Show off the mud!

Racist

still missing hose alas, but hopefully tomorrow. Whats a good chain stay protector?

Whats a good chain stay protector?

Copter tape

Also, going singlespeed ;-)

I think I'll go for this, I did consider newbaums tape ^ is a bit ugly imo

I like this, made it on my mtb. It looks better than wrapping like pic above and does the job.

Good shout, I had seen that video before but forgotten. I'll do that.

I just did this om my MTB. Just like prolly.

Prolly's?! No way, I love that guy! Did you know he has some bicycles?

Still no hoses. However 650b she's ready and 2" tyres fit very well. (Excuse crap pics)

EDIT: You are such a fucking amazing photographer. Fancy doin a wedding next year?

I didn't actually take those photos, but of you want blurry phone photos @Laner is your man

Much neater and less of a mud trap compared to wrapping, Thanks.

Wrap stay in inner tube and then cover the tube in insulation tape that is the colour of the frame or as close as you can get.

tidy and tarty.. good combo!

Looking forward to seeing some proper pics. These bode well though!

@spotter I'm sure you can do better, this is how I did it - zip ties aren't necessary I guess.

anyway, bike looks great, would love to see it on Horizons or Byways (just for looks), also great color choice.

Hmm you're is way neater maybe I should redo mine...

I have some Horizons actually for this but whilst the weather is crap and the mud is bad I think I may keep those 2" XC tyres on the 650 wheelz

All built up, and ready to roll. So, so pleased.

Wheel set one is Shimano MT-66 on DT Swiss 350.

Wheelset two is WTB i25 on Novatec

650b looks really good on this.

as above.
Bike looks great!

That's a chic freak #pardonmyfrench
