CalopS Posted January 22, 2013 Report Share Posted January 22, 2013 (edited) Booooo everyone raws there frames. I'd be all for it if it was that polka dot 26 joke but the ice actually looks nice! Edited January 22, 2013 by CalopS 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamKidney Posted January 22, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2013 There's the big dirty raw patch where I removed the bashmount though Painting over it is possible, but I't would be noticeable (I think) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SamKidney Posted March 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2013 (edited) Well.... I had gotten rid of this, but now I have it back after 5 weeks of waiting.... The joyous evening I finally had it back. Big thanks to Ross C for the lift! New part feels Freshly built wheel feels My hunneh Its not far off how I want it at all now. Mr. Chandler sorted me with some lovely front and rear 05 maguras which feel a million times nicer than those horrid TR things, some Heatsink Yellows (I was skeptical about trying these again after my last few sets were utter shite) that are performing really well on the rear, and I sorted myself a rear tyre with some tread Just wanting some matching clamps for the front, mayyybee some black forks at some point and some Try-All Lite tyres, but they're not essential. Current spec is. Frame - Onza Ice 2 Fork - Echo Urban 09 4 bolt/disc fork Steering - Echo SL headset - Tarty forged 165x35 stem - Trialtech Highrise bars - Trialtech Foams - 15mm spacer. Wheelset (Front) - Echo TR 20" rim - Mutiny plain gauge silver spokes - Rockman BUB disc hub - Purple SL washers - Trialtech rim tape - Kenda Tube - Kenda Small Block 8 20" (Rear) - Try-All Hole 19" White - Mutiny plain gauge spokes - Echo TR hub - Echo TR sprocket - Purple SL washers - Trialtech rim tape - Maxxis Creepy Crawler 19" - Kenda DH 19" Tube Drivetrain - Try-All Expert 170mm cranks - Trialtech Sport Lite BB - Echo 7075 Bashring (Had this like 3 years!) - Echo SL freewheel - KMC Z610 HX - DMR V12s Brakes - Dual 2005 Hs33 Maguras - Rear Echo TR clamps with Heatsink Yellows in plastic backings - Front Magura clamps ground down to use without washers with TNN Adms - Water bleed - 2 finger levers.

SamKidney Posted March 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2013 Working top notch thanks Dan. Tad quiet at the moment but the bite and hold is pretty good and getting better too. After riding super loud brakes its quite nice to have a quiet pop to them instead and still have the performance. Can't see me changing for a while now. Sick of it! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It rides better than it looks! I do like it. I would prefer black forks, but these work and look okay on it, so no need Quick update on the sled after riding it for a day or two. Everything still works! Still no creaks, brakes are working well... Rear one as of today is leaving a little to be desired, bite is fairly poor and the hold lacking towards the end of the day, but my grind was pretty light. Going to slap another on tomorrow morning before heading to hull and hope they improve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghostrider88 Posted March 31, 2013 Report Share Posted March 31, 2013 Going to slap another on tomorrow morning before heading to hull and hope they improve. Don´t get your hopes up, they are hs yellows you know... :wink2: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
