Shed Fire

My new build is finally complete!

I started with the idea to build a different bike but everything didn’t work out as planned with the framebuilder and a 4-month delay. Anxious to build up something I resorted to my wish list: a non-suspension corrected Ti 29er. Unaware of anything like this available (aside from going custom), I weighed out all my options until a friend told me about the Ragley TD-1.

Titanium – check
29er – check
Non-suspension corrected geometry – check
SS / Sliding drop-outs – check

I think we have everything we need here

Anyways, here are some photos!

Kind of weight-weenie, but more weight conscious (lots of places I could have shaved weight). I have yet to weigh it, but it feels nice and light. Action shots soon!
