hunterdubber:
It wasn't until I saw one of these  framesets in the flesh  that I realised their class and would one day have to have one  :angel:

From looking in mags when I was a kid and then getting  into O/S I completed most of the grail bikes I set out to do and more .

But because I wasn't racer back then, the Darrell Young wasn't at the top of my to do list ,

 however a good few old mates ,who were racers held these at the very top of the must have bikes  :4_17_5:

Since seeing them up close and studying their detail , I realised how fantastic they really are .

Influences from Hutch , GT, T/A, Quad, Bottema  :smitten:

The oversized downtube  :coolsmiley: the straight through top tube (with JMC sheild stamping)  :coolsmiley: :coolsmiley:

Cranked widening seat stays down to great sweeping looptail with big dropouts  :smitten:

and to top it all this set up came with an AWESOME upgrade a  pair of  rarer Andy Patterson Forks  :shocked:

Tear drop tubing  :smitten: straight through Bottema-esque with a bologna slash cut like LG;s

This frameset takes the best bits off other beautiful framesets and brings them altogether  :4_17_5:


This is the first incarnation of this build and I will ventually re post a revised build later in the year

Darryl Young and Andy Patterson actually rode with a 1st gen DK pro XL stem and I have one on it's way from the States

Not sure whether to fit this with a set of NOS MKS GrafightX  I have to go with the Graphite Tuffs

Not sure whether to go Candy red frame and re chrome the AP forks or chrome frame  :-\

Jaymz:
Awesome, I really like the colour it is now

Kaner:
Christian that is one sweet build.

Those forks are just sex, the most awesome forks ever, nicer than Bottema even. Just fabulous.  The Frame and large JMC DY bars are brilliant. Good to see some different tyres as well.

If you were going to change it I was to vote for Candy Red and Chrome forks and would like to see what it looks like on spokes too.

Fookin Lovely.

That's a fast looking ride  ^"^

and yes they are one of the best looking forks made for sure :smitten:
