Hi all,
Here's a few pictures of "Treebeard" (had to rename it as that Hanson song really does my head in).
Built with some left-over parts and a few chosen gold bits to make it flash but not too bling, I think I got the amount just right and it all blends in very well with the green frame.
Primarily used as a winter bike, it rides really well, loves the mud and is surprisingly comfortable. My Zesty 314 has not been used for a few months and is getting jealous...
