Heatsink Posted July 1, 2008 Report Share Posted July 1, 2008 Hi, Here's a 24UK Mk2 build belonging to Rich Lam in Boston, MA, USA. I was wondering about his riding background, so he told me! Photos taken in Boston I'm an older rider but I've only been riding trials for about 3 years. Before that, for many years I've been riding street mtb. I am so happy to have my big bunnyhops, manuals and 180's back. And trials moves are actually just as easy on this bike. Rich Spec list: Fork: Zoo Pitbull Headset: Chris King Bar: Answer Pro Taper 2" Stem: Easton EA70 90 x 20 BB: Moe BB Crankset: Echo CNC Pedals: Wellgo MG-1 Rear Wheel: Spank Stiffy on Echo hub Front Wheel: Spank Subrosa on Echo hub Tires: Maxxis Holy Roller Rear Brake: Magura HS-33 Front Brake: Magura Louise Seat/Post: Tioga MC Lite S / Fly Bikes 4" bmx post - Seat can be slammed ok Seat Clamp: Hope Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2hammered Posted July 1, 2008 Report Share Posted July 1, 2008 very nice man how does it ride in comparison to an inspired fourplay ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross McArthur Posted July 2, 2008 Report Share Posted July 2, 2008 nicley built up dude, I like it. Looks burley as buggery. Would have been better with silver or black parts where the green is though imo. Im so happy you can get 2.5 maxxis high rollers again.

steve@banbury-trials Posted July 5, 2008 Report Share Posted July 5, 2008 i really like the black and white colour scheme,but . . . . . in my opinion . . . . . loose the green and then it will look perfect,but then again ,it looks like it should ride well no matter what colour it is. cheers,steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spaceman Posted July 5, 2008 Report Share Posted July 5, 2008 I noticed that the deraileur hanger isn't mounted on. Is there any disadvantages for not putting it? Cos I didn't mount the hanger too, but did so recently cos there's some minor alignment problem with the wheel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heatsink Posted July 5, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 5, 2008 very nice man how does it ride in comparison to an inspired fourplay ? It refreshes the parts which other bikes cannot reach Brownie points for the first who can remember where that's paraphrased from!

spaceman Posted July 6, 2008 Report Share Posted July 6, 2008 Looks sexy! Thinking about getting one of those frames! What are they like for pure trials moves..... i.e gaps, sidehops etc..... Gaps are good but sidehops really feel weird. Maybe it's just me. And not to forget - flicky! But I feel that the 24uk is more street orientated.
