niconj Posted July 17, 2014 Report Share Posted July 17, 2014 So how's the build coming along? Can't wait to see yours. I've just bought a second Saint 810 lever as it's actually easier to come by than an SLX 665. The bike rides incredibly well as far as I can judge it. It's a pity that my riding skills are far far behind. You will love dual disc on a 24''. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wilf Posted July 21, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2014 (edited) Cool! Should be ready to ride on Wednesday then. Not quite, still need the rear hub and a few other bits. Edited July 21, 2014 by wilf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wilf Posted July 22, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2014 (edited) So, finally here are a few new little things I've got for it. I forgot to upload a picture when I put the brakes back together, came out pretty damn good I think. Got some carbon lever blades for them aswell. I changed the cranks to Middleburn's because I picked them up cheap and I want to experement with a 16t on the front. Need abit of a clean up but I reckon they'll come up pretty good. Loverely Titanium bashring/sprocket. Another bit of Ti, original Hope Ti skewers. Only using the front one, don't really want to because they're too rare! Plugged the front end together the other day, here's a sneak preview. Edited July 25, 2014 by wilf 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jack dickinson Posted July 22, 2014 Report Share Posted July 22, 2014 This will look amazing, but would jave been better with silver rims in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
