Why, thank you. I decided to go for the Street Fighter for my own personal bike. The geo on the PipeBomb is designed for a 650C front, and I'm a bit more of a traditionalist, so went for the simpler frame and just ported all the parts from my Uno over (box-section rims, drops, etc. etc.) to make a 'classic' looking build that just happens to be a very obnoxious shade of orange, like so:
The mix of tubing gives a really nice, stiff ride, but it's surprising comfortable. Also, WoundUp forks are amazing pieces of kit - if you ever have a couple hundred quid burning a hole in your pocket, I'd spend it on one.
