It's looking dang nice for a beater bike, making Mr want another project (while I already have 2 going, 1 of which I just started 🤦‍♂️🤣) 😁✌️

[@TonyHob]

The struggle is real 😂

[@keosoutdooradventures]

I kinda want another one

Is the handle bar steel on that? It was on my ledge, super “crow bar” heavy.

[@TonyHob]

This one is aluminum

I am curious about how that fork will perform and hold up. Make a video on that please, and no, I will not buy one. just curiosity.

[@TonyHob]

Check out my other video on the Axum with this fork. It worked pretty well until I replaced it with a RockShox

[@destinhook3826]

I had the same fork on my Ardor, just save an extra $100 and buy a Rockshox recon
