My New Toy

[mk6golf]

I said I'd post it up and here it is.... Felt Nine 50 29er.

A BIKE!

Fitted a set of Cree eyeball burners on the front and a flashy red LED on the mudguard bracket. Rear mudguard is a CRUD RacePac to fit a 29er.

Also has a deuter triangle bag in place of the water bottle. The bottle has moved to the other bar. I decided not to put the front mudguard on as it didn't hold too well with the rubber bands (yes.....) that were included.

Zip ties

Zip ties

That was my plan but as it has dried up quite a bit here the rear will come off soon with a bit of luck so hopefully won't need them till late autumn.

Ever the optimist eh?

I have the crud race pac on my 29er and the front one fits lovely and hasn't moved.

I think it is to do with the thickness of my frame?? Anyway - cables ties were the idea but I am banking on good weather from soon onwards

My Revel has a thick downtube like that and the front guard does stay where it's put, but it's quite a stretch for the bands!

Yes and yes, sadly.....

I literally had it delivered last week and have spent time riding it

I'm looking to get it into my workshop early next week as there are a few other bits to do to it.

Hope you won't encounter any streams or horse poo then.
