Awsome! You had any problems with rust on the raw finish? Getting one of these to ride a lot in UK conditions and live in a garage (so damp climate) and can't decide on which colour...

GaryOrange5 (Feb 28, 2016 at 9:33)

No real problems. It is lacquered so had a layer of protection. Any nasty grazes/gashes will rust for sure. Nothing to worry about at all.
Mine are kept in the garage, though I've put an extractor fan with a humidistat to draw out the damp air.

Numnum, the frame material is designed to age. It's only a very thin surface layer that rusts, same as those outdoor Anthony Gormley sculptures.

GaryOrange5 (Mar 1, 2016 at 4:43)

They're shit frames dude

ColinD (Feb 28, 2016 at 8:54)

Sexy! Can't wait for my hardtail!

GaryOrange5 (Feb 28, 2016 at 9:33)

More functional than sexy. Amazing frame for the money.
So is yours ever gonna turn up?

ColinD (Feb 28, 2016 at 10:09)

Well... All the parts are waiting at the shop! So it better show ASAP!

GaryOrange5 (Feb 28, 2016 at 12:16)

Haha, when's it due now?

ColinD (Feb 28, 2016 at 21:00)

Hope it will be here i april. Bud i am going on a 3 week vacation in the end off april so might miss it.

GaryOrange5 (Feb 29, 2016 at 1:42)

Ahh shit! Where you off to on vacation?
I hope the Meta isn't gonna get neglected once the Last arrives!

ColinD (Feb 29, 2016 at 9:03)

Indonesia. I am still in love with the meta. Will take it on the rougher rides.

GaryOrange5 (Feb 29, 2016 at 13:38)

Oh wow, sounds like an epic trip

ColinD (Mar 1, 2016 at 0:46)

Yeah gonna go to Java and Bali, no bikes though. Just chilling with the Lady and seeing those beautifull islands.

GaryOrange5 (Mar 1, 2016 at 4:44)

Ahh I bet it'll be awesome. Would love to go there some time in my life. I've been back at work 2 days after my trip to the Alps and already feel like I need a holiday

ebikeswillruinmtb (Feb 28, 2016 at 10:04)

lovely bit of kit dude, ha ha we can't let go of our hardtails!

GaryOrange5 (Feb 28, 2016 at 12:15)

Always gotta have a hardtail in the line up. Too many kids go straight on full sus without ever riding a HT.

ebikeswillruinmtb (Feb 28, 2016 at 14:51)

yeah its a shame, they miss the best out

GaryOrange5 (Feb 28, 2016 at 14:52)

They miss the learning curve, more importantly.

ebikeswillruinmtb (Feb 28, 2016 at 16:38)

Exactly dude

bigdaftmitch (Feb 28, 2016 at 10:58)

Loved mines wish I had kept it - looks good buddy

GaryOrange5 (Feb 28, 2016 at 12:16)

Cheers. They're awesome frames for the money.

GaryOrange5 (Feb 28, 2016 at 9:34)

Cheers buddy

STARWARS (Mar 14, 2016 at 0:12)

Wow this is a great bike

GaryOrange5 (Mar 14, 2016 at 0:22)

Thanks buddy

sterlingmagnum (Feb 28, 2016 at 9:37)

I love this cycle

GaryOrange5 (Feb 28, 2016 at 9:53)

Me too SM, tempted to steal some bits from my Five and put on here to make it a bit sexier, like the Next cranks
