Triton Dd - (hippie) Stage 2


Greetings

Recommended Posts

This is what happens when you want to buy two black rims in Poland. Must say i rather enjoy the looks even though these rims are temporary. Had some fun building up the wheels too. Forks have cracked so I can't really ride this yet, might bodge them in the evening to make them a bit safer.

Wow, Inur that looks amazing. Will write about DOB rims to you in few sec. Ride tommorrow?)

BTW DOB rims are made from Magnalium, which if we would like to be precise is Al - 70-90% and Mg - 30-10%:) So pretty similar to typical Alu rim:) How it is compared to Control/A1?

Thanks for all the comments, much appreciated :$

Adam, the disc mount is +20mm so it'd probably need an adaptor.

I believe 600 is the official UK price :shifty:

The frame itself weighs around 1,8kg, needless to say that's not why I got it.

The brakes are a BB7 2006 and a 2007 BB5 up front, though I'm now running a rear magura, just can't get used to dual discs. Might be getting 24" wheels, dunno yet.

Anyway, still haven't given it a good ride but so far it feels great.
