A huge Merry Christmas to everyone. Been a huge year and can only hope for the same next year! Massive thanks to Duane, Rob, Kirsty, Tomos and Ben for helping set out this barrel of laughs Xmas photo!
Likewise, was a great time shooting this, and capped off a great year too. Thanks for all the help guys, and sick shot as ever Laurence!
Happy Christmas all!
Cheers, Duane.
Love the shot Laurence (this picture just reminds me of living/working on the Mountain and all the ridiculous parties it leads to )... Love he Commencal even more. Who built it??? I ask cause I thought it was a factory Commy. build but now I understand, thanks to Rob-C in the "Sexy AM bike thread", it's "custom" and not stock at all. Either way it's bloody gorgeous. Well done all around aye.
@minimole: that is SWEET man, I can't believe you threw it together that fast, it's SO gorgeous looking. It's easily one of my favorite frame designs around these days. it's just so clean looking and tasteful while still having a lot of good features and smart design (low COG and compact pivot placement leading to great stand-over - I'm not short, but growing up racing BMX over the years I like smaller bikes with great stand-over for the way I tuck my bike underneath me through corners and over jumps etc... the Commencal looks PERFECT in this respect.) I'm dying to try out an SX as I've been on the V3DH and loved it, but I'm in the market fr an AM bike and the AM/SX looks to be one SWEET ride aye. I'm assuming that you;re liking the bike??? I've never heard anything but praise of these frames and I'm well sold on them too. It's hard choosing these days, between the Rune II, Spec. Enduro, BlackMarket Roam and Cove G-Spot, but the Commy still rises to the tops in terms of pure sexiness to my eyes.
