Simon Posted September 1, 2011 Report Share Posted September 1, 2011 So, only about 2% of people on here will know who i am. I been here a while! Used to ride like 3/4 years ago. Had a BT 6.0, and was super fun to ride. Sold it when everyone grew up, i got into cars etc. Randomly wanted a 24" inch for quite a while now to f**k around on, and just sold my BBS's of my car, checked T-F and there was one super fun looking bike! I've now added the rear brake, and going out for a ride tonight probably, see what it's like. Few things i want to changed already haha, but will just mess around on this for now. I want to change the front forks so i can get a disc/4 bolt setup, sort out the back break, and some new cranks. Also got some rubbing issues when i proper put some power down, is that the frame flexing 'cause it's steel? Maybe see some bitches on some rides, it's wierd being back on a bike! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke Rainbird Posted September 1, 2011 Report Share Posted September 1, 2011 Sweet shit dude. Get a shorter, higher stem on that bad boy and get to work. Steel will be a bit flexier but shouldn't be too much of a killer. How much clearance do you have when you're not putting the power down?

Surprisingly, i actually quite like the stem/bar setup. Obviously, not had it on back wheel yet so will see how it is later on. 100% need to sort the two brakes out before i do anything though.

dann2707 Posted September 1, 2011 Report Share Posted September 1, 2011 Is that Dunc's old bike? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonsieurMonkey Posted September 1, 2011 Report Share Posted September 1, 2011 I'm in the 2% of the cool people. Oooooh yeah. I love it, 24s have brought me back to, there's something about the riding that just seems so much more appealing than TGS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JD™ Posted September 1, 2011 Report Share Posted September 1, 2011 (edited) Whoa whoa whoa, not so fast with the brakes lark... EDIT: My marino is just as shit at the back end, you just end up getting it as good as you can and going with it... the odd rub doesn't bother me anymore.

Duncy H Posted September 1, 2011 Report Share Posted September 1, 2011 Is that Dunc's old bike? That is indeed my old rig, I hope you enjoy it With the rubbing i never experienced it cause i'm not a beast You could probably tell by however much paint has worn wherever it is rubbing. The wide 2.4 holy roller probably doesn't help things. I too was suprised by the bar and stem. Made for a nice set up. Let me know if you want me to sling over that other schwable tyre too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
