My new .243 SL frame and assorted parts
Hi

I got a new frame its a .243 SL 2007. Twofortythree is making a limited number of blue and white frames in both the SL and FR frames. Of course the black frame is still available. The new stem, BMX seat and bar are on my bike, the stem is lighter and has a more rounded face, the seat is an inch shorter and an inch narrower and the bars feature the new graphics that are also on the other new products. I bought a used wheel set from the Nsmb buy and sell and had them respoked, XT on the rear and sunringle on front Mag30 all round. For the rest I stripped down one of my other street bikes for parts.

I really like the colour, its Reflex Blue, what do you think ?

The forks are Manitou Stance Flow. They look big cause of the 24 inch wheel set. I also had them up at max length I could turn them down to 2 1/2 inches of travel and thats likely how I'll ride them. Wasn't really thinkin about it when I took the photos. I'll take another shot with less travel tomorrow and post it. I was looking for a DJ Urban but haven't found one yet I think that would be a better fork for this bike.

Nice look for the 243 SL. Sharp! Is it the same price as the black SL's?

243 bikes look great in colours. Thats a real nice ride, looks like a good do it all machine. Do all the 243s have the same geo?
