Trials Dave Posted October 12, 2005 Report Share Posted October 12, 2005 the bb look real high on that frame aswell. i like it. i really like the little flick where the seat would be. like a little mudguard. haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
airmj Posted October 12, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 12, 2005 I assume the front tyre is a Panaracer Trailblaster? If so, and if youve used it before, is it any good as i was thinking about getting one for the front NO, do not get panaracers. Those are firexc Pro on the front. The rubber is really hard, becomes a little chalky after a long while, and slip all over the place. I regret ever getting it in the first place. I'm gonna change it reall soon~ maybe a maxxis or tryall. the bb look real high on that frame aswell. i like it. i really like the little flick where the seat would be. like a little mudguard. haha Yea thats one of those little quirks i like about it as well. Some really hate it though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spode@thinkbikes Posted November 15, 2005 Report Share Posted November 15, 2005 What wheel base frame is that? the 1065 or 1099? And what does it measure in at with your forks? I assume that has a little less rake than the ones used in the KOT estimations. That rear cog does look pretty sweet - who makes it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T-MAG-05-DAN Posted November 15, 2005 Report Share Posted November 15, 2005 that is sex on wheels mate but why are you having V brakes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ali C Posted November 15, 2005 Report Share Posted November 15, 2005 v brakes are really good, more powerful than maggies, better feeling, pads last longer (cos they dont wobble) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stock trials the real sport Posted November 15, 2005 Report Share Posted November 15, 2005 Yeah where did you get that rear cog from ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ian Posted November 15, 2005 Report Share Posted November 15, 2005 it is a very sexual bike you have there but a couple of things in my opinion let it down, 1st: i odnt like the way your rims dont match, 2nd please get some all black tyres on there, other that that it looks sweet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ibs_m Posted November 15, 2005 Report Share Posted November 15, 2005 Your bike is seriously nice man - i rekon you have done a top job on the build! - also im not sure if this is just my eye sight but the photos seem to be really clear - did you use a high resolution, and what camera did you use?? Thanks :D :P :'( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks :D :'( (Y) It's a normal canon G2... i use a tripod, thats all =) What wheel base frame is that? the 1065 or 1099? And what does it measure in at with your forks? I assume that has a little less rake than the ones used in the KOT estimations. That rear cog does look pretty sweet - who makes it? Wheelbase is 1065, when i measured it's at 1060. Those are echo urban forks sprayed black. I think they have the same length as the kot forks, but yes, a little less rake. It's a Boone TI cog, i got it from a local store over here that deals in singlespeed stuff, cost me about $28, just a little more than a king cog, so i thought, just get the ti one. :P it is a very sexual bike you have there but a couple of things in my opinion let it down, 1st: i odnt like the way your rims dont match, 2nd please get some all black tyres on there, Yes! it's an eyesore as well! i've already sprayed the rims black, and swapped a black mich comp on the front. Got rid of the stupid panaracer. Looks a lot better now. Will post a full bike pic once i get back =D that is sex on wheels mate but why are you having V brakes I started on a zebdi, and i've been using vbrakes ever since.... never tried maguras though..
