Im getting a rear hydro, as soon as I have the money. They dont import 243's into Aust anymore. I managed to get this frame though the for sale forums.

glad to see it built up again :D chuck the chain tugs back on though, you dont have to run the bolts that go through the tugs onto the frame like i was either if thats why you took them off, thats just if you are running gears but the tugs will stop any risk of the axle slipping :)
edit : DUDE i wish i had known you were gonna be running that headset i would have just left mine in! it took me over 6 hours to get the lower headset cup out and it had to be destroyed anyway! *crys* all that stress for nothing :(

Heh, I didnt know what headset I was going to get. I managed to scab one of the guys at BA, and this was the only one in stock.
