Oh my mmmbop!!

Hi guys,

Finished my mmmBop just today and couldn't wait to show it.
18" blue mmmBop with Rockshox Revelation 140mm, full Shimano XT groupset and wheels, Nukeproof handlebars, stem and seatpost, Hope 1.5 reducer headset and Michelin WildGrip'R Advanced Tubeless 2.25 tyres.
Still waiting to put a WildRock'R Advanced Tubeless in front, but not on the market yet.
No big rides yet, but the bike feels great!
Is this the first mmmBop in Belgium??

Grts,
David

Hi there

Took a while but finally got there. Here is my effort. Thought I would be a bit different.

Cheers

Swiss pig

Enjoying it after several snowy rides. Looking forward to being able to get up higher in the mountains if Spring ever comes. Might even get round to tidying up the cables one day. The real test will be whether I can stay comfortable on it for full day or multi-day rides.

A pig is born

Recently finished building my Ragley:

16" Blue Pig

Fox Vans 140mm

Nuke Proof SL headset, warhead bars, 50mm stem & grips

Ragley spike seatpost, cheeky saddle and seat clamp

Hope Pro 2's on Mavic 819 and DT Swiss 5.1D

Hope M4 discs

Maxxis high rollers

SLX chainset

Gusset slim jim pedals

After the Ragleys maiden voyage today I'm properly pleased with the handling.

The wide Nuke Proof handlebars top everything off too; if you haven't tried running wide bars, do it! You won't ever look back.

Good riddance full susser...

Pig in S***

Short video of a ride in the mud and filth, none of which clogged up the Pig thanks to the massive clearance at the rear end!
