williams Posted December 27, 2012 Report Share Posted December 27, 2012 (edited) Hey everyone, this is my new ride for the next season! I'm REALLY happy with it so far! I hated the black Onza so I got this. (Before update) I've now gone dual disc again. And I can say after the short ride I had before I damaged my ankle, I love dual disc again. Bike is quite close to how I want it now, so I'm happy with it. I know that I've said that I hate formula brakes, just wanted to give them a go again, and I'm pretty happy with the power etc. Can't wait until they start to leak (New rotors are here soon) Hope you all like it! After: Spec is now after update: Neon Bow frame. Echo urban forks. Ritchey PRO headset. Onza 165x35 stem. Trialtech highrise bars. Trialtech Foams thin. 256g BB With bolts. (Can't remember the brand :$) Echo SL freewheel Try All cranks (160mm) Echo TR platform pedals. Kmc 510hx black. Formula RX RED, 180 mm front disc. Shimano Saint 160mm rear disc. Trialtech square rim, Mutiny spokes, Rockman BUB sealed disc hub. (Front wheel) Monty rim, Mutiny spokes black, Bonz expert hub. (Rear wheel) Try-all stiky lite front tyre. Maxxis creepy crawler rear tyre. (Knobbles cut) New front wheel, front tyre, tubes are coming, going to drop down the weight 700grams! Weight now is: Don't know, going to weight it soon.

Jake. Posted December 27, 2012 Report Share Posted December 27, 2012 Looks pretty nice, that sticker on the forks and brake lever body is hideous haha. What's with the tape around the lever? Shorten the front hose too A new front tyre will shave a hundred odd grammes off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I collaberate with that brand so I don't have the balls to take it off You don't like stickers do you haha. I have plaster around the brake lever blades to give me more grip because I slip of the levers when doing front wheel moves.. I'm not gonna shorten the front hose because I want to be able to just put it on the back if I ever decide to go dual disc again Yeah deffo, a new front wheel will save 320 grams too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your Rockman will be sick too:D Is that in a shop or is that your garage? Some serious $$$ worth if thats your garage! Bike looks cool.

TROYston Posted December 27, 2012 Report Share Posted December 27, 2012 Couple of notes: Please, stop sticking stickers on things. This bike has soooo much potential to look smooth if you de stickered the forks. (At least i cannot see a monster sticker ) This bike if easily on the correct road to looking ace! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like my stickers :'( (No monster sticker ) But the sticker on the fork is there because I sort of represent that company, but I took it off since air bubbles got trapped underneath it And cheers! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CalRobbo341 Posted December 28, 2012 Report Share Posted December 28, 2012 Change that signature! I have to agree with everyone else though, looks very clutterfull, purely because of the stickers and the graphics on the frame, cheesy 10 year old flames, haha. I also think its weighty because of the front wheel, rear rim, cranks and possibly tubes, depending on what you have. Looks good though.

I will now haha:) The stickers are of now haha:) The front wheel is really heavy, but the rear wheel is really light! Don't want to change the cranks yet, and the tubes are continental 145 g blablabla And thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
