Currently moving house at the moment so haven’t really had much time to do much at all on the build, however I have finally got it back on two wheels and it saw the light of day for the first time since purchasing it back in 2021 👍
Hopefully more updates to follow once the house move is...
The rear shock spring is back from the powder coaters finished in the same original satin black finish.
Wasn’t really planning on refinishing any parts, however due to a poorly routed cable for the rear disc brake it permanently rubbed the rear shock spring and wore through the powder coating...
Unfortunately no updates at the moment as am in the process of packing & moving house…oh and have recently purchased a race / track car that I’m just sorting as well 🤦♂️ Will be back on the build asap
I have the rear shock spring in the powder coaters at the moment going back to it’s original...
How on earth have I missed this amazing Hope anodised dark green…think I’ve been living under a 93-95 anodised blue Hope titanium rock all these years…🤯🤯
Some closeup pictures of the bikes original prototype Hope titanium screw-on rear disc hub that has custom sized spacers and a through axle (all original) opposed to the normal QR axle / spacers found on the production version.
To date I have never seen another Hope titanium screw-on rear disc...
