I finished building this up just before MK but didn't have a chance to take pics until today. Its a 93 Hyper Metro pro XL built up with all survivor bits. When I started the build I really wanted to get the Hyper wheels to match, but in the end I managed to find everything that Hyper made for it. This includes Wheels, bars, pads, and plate. Im really pleased I managed to get the bike built up like it is mostly because I never imagined Id find all of the Hyper bits to go with it. Anyway, some of you may have seen it at MK, but for those who didn't, here are the pics and the parts list.

Thanks for the kind words guys. As some of you say they ride amazing and between Carter and Foster they definitely proved their worth. Would love to find a set of Hyper forks for mine to finish it off.

That is well nice!! I loved mine when I had it :smitten:

Very very nice and love that seat
Got the exact same one on my old mountain bike, except yours looks lovely and new and mine looks like a dog chewed it up after being stored in someone else's shed :'(
