Cotic BFe build finished...

The Cotic BFe (www.cotic.co.uk) is finished but no where and no one to ride with today...

Hopefully the mild weather continues though and the snow and Ice recedes further!

So the build:

2010 Cotic BFe in XS
2009 RS Recon 351 Maxle Lite
Hope Mini Mono 180mm front, 160mm rear
Superstar Tech2 hubs and Voltage rims
Maxxis Minion 2.35 front 42a, rear 60a
Shimano Saint cranks 22/32
Gamut P30 chain device
Shimano SLX front and rear mech
Shimano XT 8 speed shifter, LX front shifter
DMR Wingbars and stem
Nukeproof post
Charge saddle
Outland pedals

She's heavy, hopefully stable and planted and will survive a Peak district winter battering. More in Wideopen (www.wideopenmag.co.uk) Issue 15 out in
March 2011.

Christmas haul update...

Not had a chance to watch it yet but thanks Andrew!

Christmas haul so far...

One Troy Lee Ruckus jersey. Very nice! Thanks Cathy!!

Cotic build in progress...

Well with Issue 14 of Wideopen out of the way I spent the evening starting on the build of the BFe. It's gone well so far, should get the chain and mechs on after Christmas. Can't wait to give her a ride, hopefully the 29th!

Wideopen Issue 14...

Christmas must have come early because Wideopen Magazine Issue 14 is here! Forget your xbox fit or wii 360, this is the must have present for 2010! Click the cover below to launch in your browser...

Episode 10 lands...

Whatever happened to Episode 9? It never saw the light of day, poor quality footage and dull riding made us lift our game this year and this one's a banger. Those in the loop should have a copy before Christmas!

Also, I've done Elly her very own DVD with footage of her riding her balance bike throughout 2010.

Merry Christmas and all the best for a fantastic 2011!
