D Rock 45 Posted February 14, 2011 Report Share Posted February 14, 2011 Hello all I built this bike two weeks after christmas desiding it was time to get rid of my onza pro 2009. First day of putting the bike together with some parts of my old bike an some new parts.I come a problem an set me back a day of no riding on a. I will exsplane the problem under the picture. Id thort i give it a good chance to wear in an look use before i posted pictures:) It rides realy smooth considering there was a problem with it 2 days ago with the freewheel. which i posted on hear asking how to fix it. an now i have fixed it but may have to get a new freewheel in the future. othere than that it has a nice feel to it when comes tricks with it being lighter an have fast rolling tyres . Hope you like my bike, i no i do Quick spec of bike. Frame onza blade 2010 Bottom braket neon carbon square taper Head set fsa pig hope spacers Stem echo TR Bars risers simtra mcpudgy grips clarks lock on Crank arms are my old onza ones Peddles gusset slim jims Rims both echo urbans Hubs echo front SL non disc . Rear is also an echo i can find find the desing name of it Freewheel tensile 96 click chain trailtech k710 kool Brakes magura front with echo TR leaver running onza cirtrus pads. back brake new 2011 magura running magurs pads Tyres kenda small 8 block an echo rear The axle was sticking out on the left side causing the axle to not clamp the forks the the spacer on the hub. sorry for fussy picture my camara didnt like the close up. I took the part into college an asked if they can hollow it out by 2mm deep an 1mm wide. An so they did. now its a nice fit an the wheel is spot on senter running smooth.

dann2707 Posted February 14, 2011 Report Share Posted February 14, 2011 It's a bit colour happy! I reckon with a lot of black parts it would look nicer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D Rock 45 Posted February 14, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2011 It's a bit colour happy! I reckon with a lot of black parts it would look nicer. the green rim tape an back hub were off my old bike . i was thinking of red to replace the green tape as it goes with the bronze well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blake Posted February 15, 2011 Report Share Posted February 15, 2011 Very nice, how does the blade ride? Is it light? Not many people have them and i've wanted to know more about it. . . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D Rock 45 Posted February 15, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 15, 2011 Very nice, how does the blade ride? Is it light? Not many people have them and i've wanted to know more about it. . . rides realy well, nice an sturdy when your on the back wheel, an yes its light also quite tough dosnt dent easy from the few times ive knock it by mastake. only thing am not to sure on its the back hidro mount tubes . running the hs11 2011 long lever brake an there abit of flex to it even though ive got a brake booster. was wondering it if down to the lever being longer an having more leverage to it when braking.

SamKidney Posted February 15, 2011 Report Share Posted February 15, 2011 bike looks sweet dude. One thing I would say is to put your citrus pads on the rear, and the maggie blacks up front. Like the blade frames Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D Rock 45 Posted February 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 so its normal to have some frame flex then bike looks sweet dude. One thing I would say is to put your citrus pads on the rear, and the maggie blacks up front. Like the blade frames thanks mate i have another pair of citrus pads for the back . just thought id use the black maggies for a bit see how they were. i will be putting the citrus pads on when the blacks maggies have worn out or i dont think there doing well anymore Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
