NIIIICE! How much does it weigh? Sub 40 I'm guessing?

[belly_up]

umm, about that. don't know for sure atm, surprisingly when we were doing runs the other day, it felt heavier to lift into the ute than pana's Tomac, but thats not a very reliable indicator. i'll have to find a set of scales somewhere.

[peachy]

hey how much did you buy that for second hand?

[belly_up]

$5040 including postage from melb and a sticker kit.

i was dissapointed when i missed out on buying Jareds 222 with Dorado's for $4.5k, but then this one came up, so it wasn't so bad :D

[chuckrockswell]

Hey belly_up, is that Daryl Snowdens old bike?? It came up good with the sticker kit!!

[andrew]

looks fast 8)

[belly_up]

Yeah it is Daryl's old bike, i'm very happy with it so far (but then you would hope so coming off a GT hartail... :D)
It's an awesome bike, it's given me so much confidence to do stuff i would have never tried before. it's great!

[Adi]

Did you repaint it gloos whit and then put the sticker kit on or was it already white? I thought last years 222 was mainly gray like Rileys. Absolutly Sick bike though.

Its a team issue version of the frame (which are white).

[ELX]

Ohhhh, i see. There the best bikes but they cost a shitload. Who was the former owner?

Like Pana said, it was previously Daryl Snowdens bike, from melbourne. It started life as a '02 Greg Minnar replica, i imagine with global racing livery. Daryl had already removed that kit, and sold it to me in plain white.

[Ghost]

Yup, I'm jealous. :P

[Bender is CRAZY]

Wasn't Daryl Snowdowns 222 orange? (i mean the colour)

[Dirt Devil]

Yup, I'm jealous too. What are the Hope brakes like?

[Simo]

remind me to become good mate with you and get in your will :P

[belly_up]

The hope brakes were good until i broke them last week :( now the fitting that goes into the front lever is snapped, and the rear caliper leaks
:cries:
