Hey guys

Been browsing your forum for a while now, but never had the chance to sign up.

Anyways, my name is Prajay, and I live in JHB, South Africa. Still pretty much an amateur rider but I am planning to do some stage events early next year.

I have been building this bike up for the last year or so. I haven't gone to the extent of some of the guys here but I think I am done with it for now. Started as a GT Avalanche Expert(2006) and this is what I have done till now - I think every single part of the GT has been replaced now, the last was the 9spd x9 derailleur, but destroyed that in a crash. I think the bike weighs in just under 10kg right now.

Hope you enjoy the photos. A short timeline, I twisted my ankle a couple of months back and decided to strip my frame and decided do a respray on my own.
