That’s fantastic, what a job. It looks like it was designed that way. What size tyres did you use?

I think it’s great, it’s getting used a lot where it maybe would have hardly got used and that’s what makes it great 👍

I would have liked discs on my Rockhopper back in the day so a winter / rainy day project beckons…

I’m happy welding the tabs on although the welds sometimes look better once painted or powder coated. The guides and cable stops I get a proper frame builder to braze on, it’s not too pricey but the quality of the job is top notch. I did the hose guides on the red one and that’s when I decided...

It’s great. So useable and confidence inspiring while not making easy trails boring but my heart wants a 17” steel Rockhopper so a winter project beckons lol

Oh my word that is amazing 👍👍👍 Thanks 🙏 rides great too 👍

I’ve just started a thread on disc modded retros and have a pic on there. Would be great to see yours on there too 👍

That's turned into a really useable bike, I bet it gets loads of use now. I did a similar conversion on a steel Kona and there is something special about riding these '90s bikes back in the day and then the same bikes decades later with exceptional brakes, wide bars and shorter stems. For me it...

Many happy returns and what a prezzie, its a stunner!!

That is beautiful, a fine bike indeed. Where were you riding? looks a great area.

Absolutely fantastic, I grew up surrounded by Bombers, Grifters, Choppers and Burners but not seen a Bomber for years. You've done a great job, can't believe ive not seen this until now. Thanks for reviving this I've enjoyed it immensely.
