Repost.
Think it has been reposted in Anti several times too.
And in Rats.

Allrighty, it's a classic..

is this a repainted FES frame?

yes it is

yes it is

looks somehow strange in this color but still nice
maybe a another stem

^ I'm quite intrigued by it
As Eingang knows better than most, it takes a bit of commitment, cash and good fortune to get hold of one - you'd assume they all end up with those know what they're doing.....

well done apollo. have some rep.

'you must spread some rep around before giving it to apollo again'

better nerg maddy then.....

^^^Agreed, seems a hell of a lot of money to spend on a frame to then build it up like that, even for hhsb!

chain got tighter but would take the hed and drops all day over risers and radial...hacksaw also required.

Well, and I think this might make a few people sick, I got the frame for £300 on ebay. The guy wanted £500 but no one bid(!), so I beat him down. It was a sweaty few hours waiting for that auction to end. It was already a grotty silver finish, so had it resprayed. Have to say that as not cheap. It also goes to work on the track with drops and Zipps.

....and, hhsb has to have an element of madness, surely?

I've never liked those Felt frames, kinda looks like they got the chunky bits in the wrong places... "Here Mike, I can't work out this drawing, where's this bit go mate?" "Blowed if I can work 'em out Pete, its all in chinese I think..."

Ah well that changes things entirely, if you only paid £300 for the frame then that makes it totally within the realm of HHSB. On the downside I think Eingang will probably want to kill you in a slow and unpleasant manner ;p

i don't care, as it's an older repainted model not in my size. but the price is truly a bargain

Thanks, was googling them with no luck so far

Never seen them before, shinkuu do you recommend?

Remember first seeing em on the 2012 Mongoose Maurice of all places. Liked the writing but from memory I think that's about all they got goin for them.

Yeah i saw them on the Maurice to, then spotted them on some forums a while ago.

just seems the tyre is worth a try, no idea if its any good
