Ross McArthur Posted November 18, 2024 Report Share Posted November 18, 2024 (edited) This build has taken some time, never mind the time it’s taken me to get on the Hex bandwagon! I had to go with the Kings on Inspired rims. You can keep your 600 odd engagements and carbon rims 😋 went for carbon 170mm cranks and an Ali Express bash which comes in 3 bolt with a narrow wide chainring! Not that narrow wide rings are required in trials but I’d take it over not having it. The rear brake is a shimano XT and there’s a Zee on the front, both run with red EBC pads. The shimano 4 pot brakes with these pads and 203mm icetech rotors, I find to be just the ticket. Bars are Inspired and are clamped in place with a Thomson 80x10 stem with 20mm of spacers ontop of the humungous headset. Grips are push on ODI Longnecks. Rear tyre is an old 2.4 Maxxis holy roller and the front is a newer 2.35 Ikon. Ive not put it on the scales yet but it feels decent. 😎 Fire away with any comments or questions!

PLIW Posted November 19, 2024 Report Share Posted November 19, 2024 Std iso king hub or a single speed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross McArthur Posted November 19, 2024 Author Report Share Posted November 19, 2024 Its standard in the sense that its not single speed but it does have a steel drive shell and HD axle with a Ti lock ring for a spot of bling. Its a fully black drivetrain too which I'm liking. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canardweb Posted November 19, 2024 Report Share Posted November 19, 2024 Does Irn Bru still exist? I am talking about its taste all the time to my wife as we have nothing here that tastes like it. Very nice bike anyway, even if I am not into seat bikes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Energy drinks are not my thing at all, it's just I never tasted anything else that was even close to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
