isitafox Posted March 17, 2011 Report Share Posted March 17, 2011 (edited) Got my new Bionic frame off Alex Dark built up (almost). Its a B5ST according to the Zhi site and I'm pretty sure it runs Fans geo so it should be quite nice, will have a proper measure when I get it home. Spec is all off my old python except for the trialtech bars and headset off Franksx2005. Frame - Bionic B5ST Forks - Echo Urban Wheels - Onza sealed hubs with Echo TR red rims, Stiky rear tyre, Creepy Crawler front Steering - Echo SL headset, Trialtech forged stem and bars with Rockman grips Drivetrain - SL freewheel and bashring, Trialtech cranks, pedals and sprocket Brakes - Hope mono trial 160mm front, 05 maggie rear with 4 finger lever, TNN clamps and booster system and hs yellows Just needs the chain putting on when I get home and can shorten it then I can take her for a test ride!

Luke Dunstan Posted March 17, 2011 Report Share Posted March 17, 2011 Beast, looks really good buddy. Big fan of white frames. Ever tempted to grind the front rim to match the back? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isitafox Posted March 17, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2011 Nah not really, to be honest I'm considering going to a front magura as I've just done it on my stock but even then I'd probably leave it smooth for a little bit of modulation. Dying to get out and ride it though!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rusevelt Posted March 17, 2011 Report Share Posted March 17, 2011 (edited) Tidy. What is with those numbered long levers in background, do they operate some large machinery or signaling? Edited March 17, 2011 by Rusevelt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Franksx2005 Posted March 23, 2011 Report Share Posted March 23, 2011 Oh yes, best job in the world! Didn't know you was a railway man, that's an original signal box, they are gettin rare these days. We have one in Canterbury like that. I work on renewls so have to ring you guys when we want to take a line blockage, assuming you are a signal man.

Most of the boxes round here are all lever frames as well but thats cause there's a lot of quarrys so always shunting stuff round. Will get some better pics posted tomorrow as it's had some minor changes in the way of an Echo SL rear lever and stem, a chain and the brake hose is now ziptied on! Hopefully get my first proper ride on it in the morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
