Blake Posted April 25, 2013 Report Share Posted April 25, 2013 (edited) Hey all! Had this a week now, rides pretty nice happy to take a step away from the Zoo as it wasn't helping me improve much, and it's nice to have a bike I can ride more than one day in a row without having to take painkillers Will update pictures when I change the back tyre and get the crack welded up, and hopefully do some weight saving where it's very needed! ~~Trivia: this is the first frame I've had with a headtube cutout!~~ Pics below! Spec is: Rockman Maladie Frame Revell pro V forks Echo headset (old style) Trialtech 180x35 stem Trialtech sport bars rawed Trialtech foam grips Giant topcap and a super shiny bolt! Front wheel is echo urban in white on a Zoo! hub with black spokes Rear wheel is a ZHI rim on a hope pro 2 with black spokes Zoo cranks and Bash with 18t sprocket KMC z510 chain Unsure of BB, but it's pretty shite. Pedals are the cheap platforms off tarty, do the job, just Rear brake is echo TR lever on one magura slave and one echo slave, with CNC heatsink yellows with standard magura clamps (bottom ones so washerless) and braided crossover Front brake is Promax arms with Promax lever (shit) running heatsink Yellow V pads with a wilkonsons cable Rear tyre is a monty white line (soon to be replaced with slick CC) Front tyre is Kenda small block 8 1.95" Previous owner said the geo came out at: 1030WB +95BB 360CS Will measure these to confirm Please leave a comment, and I hope you like my new bike Thanks George x Edited April 25, 2013 by DrStix 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake. Posted April 25, 2013 Report Share Posted April 25, 2013 Finally a bike that's relatively keeping up with modern times I can't fault it, maybe black bars would look nicer? Best looking bike you've had so far for sure though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best looking bike you've had so far for sure though. Yeah would probably get black bars if I got some new ones Wouldn't mind some with more rise. . .

High risers would suit you for sure (haven't seen you ride this bike, but I know it will). Plus you seemed a little hunched on the back wheel when I saw you but that may have been due to low bb, so the higher you can get it the better... I think? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha yeah I'll scout out for some high risers, or save up and get brand new. but I need to get a new bash first, and raw these 10 ton cranks 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
