CurtisRider Posted April 22, 2013 Report Share Posted April 22, 2013 That is about the normal going price for them, sure you can find them for less but not that often Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZeroMatt Posted April 29, 2013 Report Share Posted April 29, 2013 Same old 650B kit I've been running for couple of years but got myself a nice new frame. I think it may well be time for some new brakes though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bing Posted April 30, 2013 Report Share Posted April 30, 2013 What's up with those? The lever design is the best one shimano have ever done, massive power. Same levers as my saints, only without the gold knob. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CurtisRider Posted April 30, 2013 Report Share Posted April 30, 2013 Those SLX brakes don't offer that great a power unfortunately, however are very comfy! Mine work well enough for me to cope Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

krazykid009 Posted May 2, 2013 Report Share Posted May 2, 2013 absolutely stunning Cheers boss! Weighing in at a featherweight 10kg, she really does fly! I think the words the head mechanic in work used were "it's very Euro!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Booth Posted May 5, 2013 Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 Love it, I kept fancying the carbon 456, even more so when they where on offer but nothing else of Mine was lightweight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

krazykid009 Posted May 6, 2013 Report Share Posted May 6, 2013 Love it, I kept fancying the carbon 456, even more so when they where on offer but nothing else of Mine was lightweight I'm seriously tempted by a 456 as well! A race weight 150mm travel hardtail sounds somewhat appealing! Having ridden them against the steel, it's probably worth noting the Steel was actually funner to ride as I was worried about hurting the Carbon! Although the straight off 1kg weight saving was enough to make it nicer to ride over a whole day! This makes me happier than a bike should. I'm just waiting for the photographs from the Enduro race I did yesterday to come out! Even after 50 miles I was loving how she rode, and grinning like an idiot!

krazykid009 Posted May 6, 2013 Report Share Posted May 6, 2013 Thought you may appreciate another of my steeds! Frame: Nukeproof Snap Regular Fork: Fox F-Series 120mm R Headset: Ritchey Comp Cranks: Shimano Deore Chain: KMX Kool 1.1/8 Chain Tensioner: Gusset Chain Guide: Blackspire Stinger Brakes: Shimano Deore M595 Front Rotor: Shimano XT RT76 Rear Rotor: Avid Cleansweep G3 (Shimano RT-76 On It's Way) Bars: Gu trials 760mm Stem: RaceFace Ride 70mm Grips: Funn Lock Ons Pedals: Ritchey Race SPD Seatpost: Point One Racing Saddle: Blank Basic (Ragley Ti On It's Way) Front Hub: On One Max Adaptable Rear Hub: On One Max Adaptable Front Rim: Mavic XM119 (Octane One Solar 33 On It's Way) Rear Rim: Octane One Solar 33 Spokes: Sapim Race DB Rear Tyre: Maxxis Advantage 2.4 Front Tyre: Continental mountain King 2.4 Just need to wait to get into work to grab some spokes, and then I can build up the Octane One rim onto the front. Also got a new saddle and rotor in the post to make it all look a bit more rad! The plan is to throw the XT brakes from my On One onto here once I can afford some XTR Races for the her. Enjoy!

Tom Booth Posted May 6, 2013 Report Share Posted May 6, 2013 Both gorgeous. I love my steel 456summer season, epic amounts of fun to hoon around on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krazykid009 Posted May 6, 2013 Report Share Posted May 6, 2013 As I am clearing out and tidying up the workshop, I might as well get pictures of everything up! This is my '98 Stumpjumper M2, currently singlespeed and rigid for that all out hardcore look! Although usually resigned to commute duties, she gets the occasional whizz around the local singletrack every now and then! She is soon being transferred into a geared On One 456 or Inbred for my dad however... sad times! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ash-Kennard Posted May 9, 2013 Report Share Posted May 9, 2013 here is my baby, proposed plans are some RC34 Forks, clip in pedals of some sort, some decent tubeless tyres LUST i reckon and a dropper post. I cannot wait to get some money! I also plan to strip the frame down entirely and powder coat it white. I also recently designed a replaceable carbon tube version or the santa cruz nomad, considering making that to see how it does, but needs work still. maybe by the end of next year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
