CalopS Posted February 15, 2010 Report Share Posted February 15, 2010 Got this lot on tuesday. Swaping the parts over from my monty was a bit of a hassle but i managed to sort it out for the weekend and it rides great, Really happy with it! Maybe needs to be a bit higher up the front end but ill probably get used to it. The spec is pretty much Monty + Manus besides the rockman rotor on the rear, trialtech grips/pedals, ENO freewheel, tryall snail cams, echo lite bash plate and a cheap headset. Thanks to tarty bikes for the great service! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

konstant Posted February 15, 2010 Report Share Posted February 15, 2010 A tidy parts list and a pretty, refreshing colour scheme. Nicely done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J Trials 31 Posted February 15, 2010 Report Share Posted February 15, 2010 Awesome, I see you got that rear hub in there, how hard of a fit was it? Love the Monty spec. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
streetjibs Posted February 15, 2010 Report Share Posted February 15, 2010 looks beautiful.... is it just me or is this another Manus without the M on the downtube ??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CalopS Posted February 15, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 15, 2010 (edited) Awesome, I see you got that rear hub in there, how hard of a fit was it? Love the Monty spec. 2 spacers on each side of the axle then 6 spacers on each caliper bolt. 2 pedal washers on each pedal to stop the little bit of pedal rubbing on the frame and a 2.5mm ish BB spacer to stop the drive side crank rubbing. I tried a 5mm one but then the none drive side rubbed looks beautiful.... is it just me or is this another Manus without the M on the downtube ??? Urm no this is rob's frame that he sent back to tarty bikes after discovering it was missing the M. I got a few pennys off.

Giddy Koxx Boy Posted February 15, 2010 Report Share Posted February 15, 2010 (edited) Beautiifful, i love all of the rockman manus' pictures on here the one question i have about the manus frame: what happens if you get dirt/grit in the headtube? wouldn't that destroy your headset quite quickly?

Dan S Posted February 15, 2010 Report Share Posted February 15, 2010 Nice nice bike. But all of manuses seem to be looking alike. Ether orange-white or orange-silver. ANd I don't really know why are you having problems with cranks rubbing the frame, because I don't. With Reset BB and Monty cranks I have a lot of space between a crank and a frame...

CalopS Posted February 15, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 15, 2010 Nice nice bike. But all of manuses seem to be looking alike. Ether orange-white or orange-silver. Ill agree with you there. I think its because the frame colour is so bold. If there were many more bold colours going on it would look pretty awful. Id like to see someone try though!
