Title: Condor my first Mid Build
Post by: CD17 on November 08, 2007, 09:13 PM: Well my first since 1997 anyway :)

Got the Frame, Forks & Chainwheel off Phil (Spacefruit) :daumenhoch:

Got the Bars Levers & loads of help with parts off Dave (Stodgy) Big thanks Dave :)

Got the AD990 off S&MAlex :)

Took me a while to get all the parts together that I need, really wanted a TNT Stem, but we all know Stodgy has them all ::)

Im quite happy with it & it really rides nice 8)

I honestly only have one TNT stem now - and it's on my mk1 Condor...the other one went with my green Condor to Steve Firebird.

If I had a spare one Chris, it would be yours already.

Yes I will remove the Haro logo then it will look better on this.

Mr Stodgy helped me with this also :)

I rode this at Cin & it felt very good.

I think I will be keeping this one :)
