isitafox Posted June 10, 2012 Report Share Posted June 10, 2012 (edited) Here's a pic of my new Fourplay built up. Currently got a set of knobblies fitted ready for Fort William but shall be switching back to some Holy Rollers tomorrow! EDIT: knobblies have gone, rear brake mount swapped for one that fits and pads fitted that actually work! And I managed to slip a few washers on the axle to give me a bit more space for the spoke tensioner. Could probably do with moving the sprocket over slightly but it worked perfectly at Fort William and hasn't come off once!

isitafox Posted June 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 10, 2012 Yes though technically the brakes were never on today as they didn't work at all! Rims are Spank Stiffy on the rear and subrosa on the front Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark W Posted June 11, 2012 Report Share Posted June 11, 2012 Nice setup dude! Looking forward to the 'completed' photos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isitafox Posted June 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 11, 2012 Got the tyres swapped this afternoon and fitted some brake pads that work. The discs will be coming off thats for sure but I thought I'd better get the brakes working for Barrow Farm at the end of the month as I almost died many, many times yesterday!! It definately feels comfier though I won't be happy till I get some Inspired forks on the front. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

isitafox Posted June 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 12, 2012 Updated the pics at the top! Was awful, had to run a 'modified' 185 adapter for the back brake and the pads on both were useless so I basically had no brakes for 95% of the day. Also the fact it was the first time I'd ridden it didn't help! Just been out for my first proper ride and I definitely prefer life without brakes so they'll be coming off until Radfest, manuals are getting a lot easier and I'll need to relearn how to ride but I'm definitely happy with it! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isitafox Posted July 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2012 (edited) Brakes off, Inspired forks on. Sorted a tensioner that actually works courtesy of Mr Ben Swales (legend) so just need a fat front tyre so can ditch this rubber band thats on currently! Might also look into swapping the stem as I've got 58mm of stackers at the moment! Oh yeah, the front rim looks a bit ropey cause of the dodgy lighting from the sun setting!

Skoze Posted July 8, 2012 Report Share Posted July 8, 2012 Black frame! Black fraaaaaaaaame! My old Leeson 660 was all murdered out black with fluro green rims - looked pretty good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
