Periodically I convince myself that I am still young and therefore need to take up a cycling discipline from the more extreme end of the spectrum. In my fantasy world with a bit of practice I will be grinding rails and hitting enormous doubles in no time. The reality is I excitedly head to the trails or the skatepark and watch in horror and awe as children half my age ride rings around me.
This brings me to the matter in hand. Succeed where I failed this summer and buy one of these rad whipz.

Fork: Marzocchi Z4 100 coil/oil
Rear wheel: Deore XT on Sputnik rim
Front Wheel: Hope hub on Mavic D521 rim

Both of these bikes have cosmetic marks and please allow me to apologise for posting photos of the DMR with flats I know it's poor form, this will be sorted before they are sold.
Thank you
