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!

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!

🤣 It certainly does dude but the taste isn’t the same since the sugar laws came in! They even do energy drinks now, if that’s your thing. 
 

Thanks!
