Life is too short to ride shit bikes.

With daylight savings weeks away, it was a great time to catch this custom painted Yeti SB55 in the last light of the day.

Tony's 'big' bike was a post-COVID painting project.  I helped by supplying vinyl masks, and he painted the frame using colourshift and crystallising paint from aerosol cans.

The inspiration came from a paint scheme to match the purple anodised HOPE stem - and SRAM AXS for the shifting makes for a very neat cockpit.

Extra indulgence by way of titanium bolts from top to tail for added bling factor.

See you on the trails!
