what do you think about this Grandis MTB frame?

... I m thinking to convert my old MTB by Grandis for a road use... what do you think?

switching to rigid forks?

Seems a shame to re-purpose a nice mtb but at least it'll get used. Can look great if done well.

Yes. I m not using it as MTB. I m trying to do it properly, even if for the moment I m not completely sudisfy of the forks that I found (estetically speaking). I m going for rigid forks. The one that I have now are "exsausted". I m thinking if to move to a rise handlebars or a drop bars.

This are the tyre that I choose
and I was thinking to buy a Concor yellow

Oh my god!!!! This is sum sik bike mr!!!!!! Huw much if u sel it 2 me pleeeezzz??

beautiful

Do you mean the Grandis or the brompton?

both are my all time brand new favourite bikes now!

thanks for your sarcasm... appreciated

TeddyUK, what country are you from?

Italy, why?

In my opinion yellow doesn't go with beige. I would go with a black saddle.

A classic. I think you re right

was trying to work out if English was your mother tongue, your vocabulary is good, but your spelling is interesting

I may start to use a good spell checker. Sorry for that

no worries, it is not a crime

ffs i am too lazy to use upper case letters most of the time, or punctuate full

DJ looking to your thread about your commuting bike (nice one, a lot) I realize that you know a lot of sources to find bike parts. I am looking for something rare now days. I need for the Grandis 1" threadless forks, suspension corrected (a-to-c is 425 mm), for 26 wheels, v-brakes ready.

For the moment, just to start to use the bike, I ordered an alu Exotic forks. Do you have any suggestions? Just if you have time. Thanks

You could use the opportunity to go threadless? Might be easier to find forks and a headset is pretty cheap.

What bars are they on your Brompton?

Hi Cake, it is threadless :)

The bar is a Condor low rise

Ah, sorry, misread it and thought you were after threaded.
