DJEHB Posted December 5, 2021 Report Share Posted December 5, 2021 (edited) Thought I’d share some photos of my new hex build. Still awaiting some more goodies in the next week or so but I’m really happy with it. Going rear disc has brought my riding on leaps and bounds too!

Loving the silver parts and the ti bash Cheers Adam, there’s plenty of little touches that I’ve not really captured. Think I’ve single handedly propped up Stan titanium throughout the past year! Will get some detailed photos when I’ve fitted the last bits and bobs (and lost my sanity with the tubeless set up). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJEHB Posted January 18, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2022 (edited) Fair few changes since I’ve last posted. Bike is now a nice and playful 9.7kg. I’ve gone full ‘weight weenie’ which is a pretty much losing battle on such a bike, but it really does transform the way it rides. Every single bolt / fitting on the bike is now titanium, the list is extensive but even includes the saddle pivotal bolt, brake olives / fittings and other internals, crank bolts, pedal axles, hub bolts, rotor bolts, calliper bolts, tensioner bolts… literally the lot Other updates: carbon bars SL spacer (obvs saves 1kg) New saddle different seatclamp Ikon tyres set up tubeless with rimpact in the rear double spring i9 aluminium rear sprocket aluminium lockring Edited January 18, 2022 by DJEHB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJEHB Posted February 8, 2022 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2022 Stripped down and off to the powder coaters. I’ve also given in to temptation and ordered light bicycle rims Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJEHB Posted February 10, 2022 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2022 I’m sure people are bored of seeing yellow Hex’s at this point but I couldn’t resist the same colour code for a third time. Modified the original plastic saddle so it can sit lower. Just waiting on the rims now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AdamR28 Posted March 20, 2022 Report Share Posted March 20, 2022 Fast coming to the conclusion that tanwalls look great on pretty much any bike. Nice! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to say I expected them to look far too much against the yellow, but I really dig it. The mtb is tanned up also! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJEHB Posted June 7, 2022 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2022 So this bike has evolved somewhat. Had a fantastic week in Barcelona, dream bike for the job. Covered 20 miles+ a day. Hex 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
