Muel Posted April 28, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 28, 2008 Stickers are looking fit, so is the bike. What she weighing in at?It will be just under 8.7kg once I get the bashring on, with the plate it's around 8.8kg.Stick with the forks, dont care what the rest say they are PIMP! So are the stickers where did you get them done?Mr Fish and his Dad runs graffics.co.uk, he did them for me, I made them up in photoshop and he turned it into the right format for the printing machine and got them printed up for me.looks all good, bet its a bit light! forks are interesting, what are they exactly?Pace XC forks which have been cut down by some carbon fibre company, I didn't get it done, Craig (trialsalot), got them done and gave them to me when I bought my 07 with a rear maggy from him.Loving the stickers. Not so much the forks though... Look a bit high?Exactly the same geo as with my Echo Lites fitted, 1030wb, +62mm bb.Forks look a bit like Butler's,But a bit more..... Rest look mint though man!The Butler's ones are their own design, these are designed for XC but cut down, but only cost about £200-250 whereas theirs cost an awful lot more.Probs about 10kg's more than mine The weight is about 8.6kg's from what he told me last night. Looks really nice Muel, even if it is duel disk Duel maggy f t w.EDIT: sticker looks good.Yeh, 8661g with the bash plate removed, so add on 26g for the bashring I have ready to go on, and it will come to just under 8.7kg.Shame about the cranks hahaha sexiest mod ever?Indeed it is, and the cranks are brilliant things. Please don't criticise the cranks from now on, not being arsey at all, but I and Craig said all we have to say in this thread. LINKAGE.I only noticed when I posted these pictures that both tyres were on the wrong way round, so I turned them round this evening.

Muel Posted April 29, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2008 Looks amazing. Cheers Danny. lookin good!you could well drill that front wheel abit more though and could you not drill the rear aswell?I could, but i think I'd dent it pretty easily on the rare occasion that I do rim it on stuff. I did think about drilling next to each spoke hole on either side, but I'd have to strip the wheel down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan6061 Posted April 29, 2008 Report Share Posted April 29, 2008 Exactly the same geo as with my Echo Lites fitted, 1030wb, +62mm bb.Ah right, cool.Think it's just because they're straight, instead of curved like the Echo's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muel Posted April 29, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2008 Ah right, cool.Think it's just because they're straight, instead of curved like the Echo's.Yeh, they do look really long, but I've also had both forks out and next to each other and measured them up as best I could, and they seemed identical.The bike doesn't ride any different, apart from it's a fair bit lighter at the front.
