Mowgli Posted April 2, 2008 Report Share Posted April 2, 2008 Hey,Well i am not riding this eve so am slightly bored so thought i wud post up a pic of my bike as its had a few small changes.When in reading at the weekend Prawn sujested i twist my bars forward a bit, he did it and ever since it feels so much nicer. Odd that it makes soo much difference.Fatty R forks, got fed up with them being poo brown and decided that i would never use the V-Brake mounts so took them off before spraying.As you have probably noticed i have run the hose through the frame, not meaning to copy anyone but I kept kneeing the hose guides and it hurt so re-routed the hose and took off the guides.Well let me know what u think, i am still unsure of the MOGGLES font.Regards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ash-Kennard Posted April 2, 2008 Report Share Posted April 2, 2008 I actually really like that !How did you guide the hose through without it getting lost take brake appart, run an old brake cable through the separated hose, then pull that through, using a magnet if it gets lost, take cable out, put stoppers in, bleed your brake Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cai Posted April 2, 2008 Report Share Posted April 2, 2008 As you have probably noticed i have run the hose through the frame, not meaning to copy anyone but I kept kneeing the hose guides and it hurt so re-routed the hose and took off the guidesDoes this weaken the frame atall? Bike looks very nice aswel. I find that tilting my bars forward makes a huge difference to my riding style (in a good way ). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mowgli Posted April 2, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 2, 2008 So that it didnt weaken the frame i just avoided doing it too close to the welds, should be fine. Getting the hose through is easier than you think. Cheers for the comments guys. I am finally kinda happy with my bike, its has taken a while on a student budget.Regards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
