FINDUS Posted April 27, 2011 Report Share Posted April 27, 2011 Looking great! Everybody said when i had the wheelset the rims were the wrong colour, some links to the bottom bracket, the 2nd one looks the better option! http://prollyisnotprobably.com/2009/07/threadless_bottombrackets.php http://www.pro-bike.co.uk/10230-threadless-tapered-bottom-bracket.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gage-mann Posted April 28, 2011 Report Share Posted April 28, 2011 dont really like leesons but thats actually the nicest bike i think anyone could possibly own. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaotic3vil Posted April 28, 2011 Report Share Posted April 28, 2011 Looks nice! Why KHE tires? They wont last very long riding trials unless you run it at 60psi or more. At the front is probably fine. I had Schwalbe Table Tops, they are light at 576gr and I used to have it on the front and rear and at the rear they will just hold without punctures at 60+psi.

Will message you regarding those Maxxis , maybe sort something with the X9 parts ? dont really like leesons but thats actually the nicest bike i think anyone could possibly own. Ha , thanks man My second leeson now , this one feels alot more comfortable , better set up i guess . Everyone should have a 24 for the Summer !! Looks nice! Why KHE tires?

Erm , just wanted to ride more Park on it and keep weight down , i am a little worried on the lack of rear wheel grip for more trialsy stuff . Yeah had some table tops on my old leeson bump , and were great , so may have to look into getting one again . Normally run around 40psi and have been fine so far Thanks for all the loverly comments !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
