Pipedream Sirius build.
I have been wanting a steel hardtail for a while now.I looked around for a while before i settled on the Pipedream.
Decided on a 120mm fork and liked the ride of the Manitou Marvel Pro 120mm.
Almost 22 years ago i bought my first bicycle.A steel Bridgestone MB2 but i swopped it out for a road bike as i never enjoyed the mtb scene back then.Guess what....i have gone the full route with steel,aluminium,aluminium/carbon,carbon and now back to steel after all these years.Steel is real!!

I was going to use my old 9 speed group but decided on some new 10 speed parts.

Nice clean looking build. Quality parts make for many trouble free trips. I like your tag line, I consider climbing to be investing and downhills to be the payoff.
