Pink bike lust

[SuzieB]

OMG! I never thought I would say this but I want a pink bike! Well, I want a specific bike... the divine bike in this link is being raffled for The Breast Cancer Fund in the USA. I'm drooling soooo badly.

Hell, I'm happily ride that, even if it meant fending off the multitude of "pooftuh" comments. That's a seriously gorgeous piece of kit.

I have a couple of tickets, but I don't think Suzie can have them.

I do have something that Suzie can have for her bike though, I think
I'll be meeting Euan later this week so if I can find it I'll pass it on
to him.

Hmmm, anyone want to take my Kona hard tail off me? It could be time to
get a dualie ...

No thanks. Wanna buy a cheap Epic frame (it's not pink though).

Possibly ... I could get a bike shop to strip the parts from my Kona
and put them on the Epic frame.

Is the frame a medium sized red and white one?

(it will then match the colour scheme of my Specialized roadie)

Its an 03 model, medium & black (paint is scratched a lot). Can come
with XT running gear (V brakes) & fork (Manitou Skarab Comp - which
sucks). I could probably bring it up to Killingworth next month if you
want a test ride.

Cool. Can the bike be fitted with disc brakes? And is the fork 80 or
100mm? I was thinking of getting a new fork anyway. I assume the frame
will come with the Fox rear shock and the Brain.

OK, I'll let you know once I confirm my entry for the Killingworth race.

The fork is 80mm. Yup it does come with the Brain shock it's the
original one with out the IQ adjustment feature.
