My old 224. Sold it to a guy on here then it got Nicked Really Mad

Unsecure image, only https images allowed: http://i127.photobucket.com/albums/p124/rosspec/Picture101.jpg
Sold it before I moved to Canada (BC).

Cannot find a decent 224 here. (Anyone Got a 17" 224 bike / Frame forsale? in Canada?)

Orange Bike's for me all the way and its a shame they have NO dealer here in Canada Confused I bought an Old Norco A-Line for the ski-Hill. Will do me for this season till I get a Hold of a 17" 224 with all the HOPE RICHard.

Erm .... Did I mention the Rear brake lever should be on the left Madder

I think its a Manitou Travis (Single Crown) Is that easy enough tighten for going up hill?

As for Pedal bob, I think its a Manitou Swinger (X3 or sumthin?) does that bob alot while climbing??

Cheers

na you'll be fine mate, if anyone goes on about "oh it's really hard to go up hill on them" thats coz they are weakSmile just change your rebound and compression on the top of the fork (if they have that, i'm not sure) but i cycle up hill and do all mountain on my orange 223, with dual crown forks. You'll be fineSmile tup

130mm is the longest i think. A pair of pikes should be fine on it.
