Thanks mate, I've taken high res shots of every decal and sticker that was on it so I can reproduce.

Looks awesome, good job !
My strip job on the red Nukeproof Scout looked great for about a month, bare alu goes dull really fast, like a misty corrosion style patina appears all over the surface even without getting it wet.

Didnt pay $250 for this custom title
Aluminium Oxide.
Aluminium will develop it regardless, why it always needs a clear coat

Not for the better either. No Lycra, still on flats and baggy gear for road riding.

Did you polish the scout?
Hoping a good coat of polish slows down the oxidation enough for the rare use this gets, will see lol.

Glad to hear I am not alone.

Somehow managed to strip the toothed ring out of the rear hub, literally just pedalling along. It has not been a good journey with the norco so far with after just 150km it's developed a clunking front end that is looking like problems with the Z2 forks and now a rear hub explosion.

let you google that for me
I visited the Rose store in Munich. Some nice bikes and interestingly, a new bike with front and rear Trail Endurance Xynotal tyres. They seemed plenty squishy to be decent. I was expecting BigW levels of hardness based on what I've read.
What did do for my bike? Bought a set of Ergon GA2 Fat grips and a Topeak Airtag holder

Little Sender is back!
Two years ago I put him on the 27.5 hoping he'd take to it after out-growing the 20" in both size and ability. It's taken him awhile and a growth spurt, but I just chased him down a couple of green descents at O'Halloran and he was just sending everything. He nearly got sent into the bushes on one big jump towards the bottom of Grom Flow. Biggest, cheesiest grin on his face at the bottom.
Ex-VC on the other hand is more than a little rusty and was left well behind going down.
I'm gonna need a bigger bike.......

First MTB ride since November 12!
Took the Trance for a nice lap of Lysterfield Park. She was looking a bit spiffy after a full detail since its last outing.

Fitted the bar tape which was the last job. Watched 128 videos to find there are 4,890.3 ways to do bar tape. Sigh. Anyway this was Park tool's version 2a part bii. And as someone who owns about 300 rolls of insulation tape in various roll lengths do you think I could find a single roll? Adding to the bliss I moved a set of metal shelves temporarily stored in the garage. While doing the first side of the bars my peripheral vision caught sight of something near my foot. Ah, that be blood. Obviously cut the top of a toe while moving the shelves. Off for a clean and bandaid. Now it hurts. Might go back to bed.
It rides ok, still tall gearing despite the 42/32 up front and the 13/26 now on the back. Hard to tell really because the frame is so small my knees hit my chin when I pedal. And my feet hit the front wheel.

Small roadies and toe overlap, you nearly have pedal overlap on that one
