Whew--- For a second there, I thought her "HUSBAND" was going to convince her to go with the other color!!!

You did good Willie. Looks even BETTER than I thought it would!

P.S.- I still like the "secret bike"

You deserved it. A family that Chumba's together , rides together.

See you soon, Pinkie.

I smacked myself right in the Chumba the other day . I was trying to catch some keys. Then bam it hurt for a while.
The next thing the bike needs is some Pink King hubs and a talas 32 RLC and some Juicy 7s with a Thompson seat post and stem and FSA afterburner cranks.
I will be working on it for a while.

Nice frame Willie! Check out these stems.

http://www.straitlinecomponents.com/products/stems.php

I like their stems because the back is lower profile not having the bolt there. Less chance of hitting your knee there. All of their other parts come in Pink too.

Putting it all together slowly. Still needs tires and a couple of little things.
Have some of the parts to put it all together . King wheel set pretty and strong, 08 Fox Talas RLC , Juicy 7 brakes, Sram 09 shifters and Derailuers Thompson seat post and I think I am going to take the stem off or one of the other bikes and put a 70mm Thompson on the XCL.
The only thing left is hope QR's and the perfect tires.

Any Ideas? She needs XC tires light great rolling efficiency good traction.

Yeah she is my little ripper. Ha Ha
Now she can never say no when I need a bike part she has a dream bike Ha Ha .
