VFfree is finally done.

Thanks to Hollywood on this board for the frame.

I can't realty review the beast yet, since it has only been on some XCish rides so far, which isn’t this thing’s bag, baby.

That's sex on wheels, is what that is.

edit: I kan't spell.

that is a sweeeeeeeeeet bike, dude! Damn sexy.

:D

Damnation man. That is a sexy machine. The only thing I'd change on an otherwise perfect rig is swap that 32 for a 38 (why do I feel like a broken record?). A seriously sick set-up man. Enjoy it.

Yeah I am going to put a 34 or 36 on there soon. I am told that a 12-14 teeth difference is about the max you can go and still expect decent shifting. Since I NEED, and love my granny, which is 22, this allows me to go up to 34-36. The free shifts pretty bad as is, so don't want to make it much worse.

Homer voice: mmm, VP Free.....mmmmm......drool. Nice rig.

I
Hate
You

:D

That is tits! (might wanna trim those cables a lil)

Awesome that sure is a fancy bike!
