Ryanpmb Posted January 11, 2013 Posted January 11, 2013 (edited) Ok... some red bits added, wheels on, cranks on, chain ring on. Brakes off - have something up my sleeve regarding these... ... wife was at bookclub so I got away with working in the dining room *Yes, you can see a cassette - that will get used when running 1x10 - for now going SS* Edited January 11, 2013 by Ryanpmb TYGA, The Gas Man, M L and 3 others 6
Monark Posted January 11, 2013 Posted January 11, 2013 @ Ryan: I have done exactly the same thing to my On One Scandal 29. In November/December I stripped the paint off of the frame, I brushed the bare frame and then I had clear powder coat put onto the frame to protect it. I am running 1x10 and it is epic. The matt silver frame gets a ton of attention! Great work dude!

Why did you get the frame powder coated - worried about dulling or corrosion? Who did the powder coating for you? Oh - post pics man! Janram 1
Swift01 Posted January 11, 2013 Posted January 11, 2013 Trek 6000. Thank youI may have one at home. Will check tonight. Bought it for my GF frame only to find out that frame could not take any adaptor.
shaper Posted January 14, 2013 Posted January 14, 2013 (edited) Trek 6000. Thank youIf the trek adaptor is not quite right for yor frame, take a look at A2Z universal disc brake adaptor which is suitable for older frames. I have just put one on a 1999 trek which doesn't have the holes for fixing a trek/Gary fisher adaptor. I got mine from Wiggle. Will post a pic tomorrow.Finally got around to taking pics of the adaptor that i used to convert my Trek 4300 for disc brakes. First pic shows the frame which does not have disc brake mounts, the second shows with the adaptor fitted which I got from wiiggle and just bolts on. http://www.wiggle.co...sal-disc-mount/ Edited January 14, 2013 by shaper

Audible Anarchy Posted May 28, 2013 Posted May 28, 2013 What does this puppy weigh ? havent weighed it yet, but im guessing around 12kg. lighter than my previous alu SS build (GT avalanche frame)
Audible Anarchy Posted May 28, 2013 Posted May 28, 2013 Awesome. Deserves a bigger fork though... Looking at a Sektor or Revelation 150/120mm. Unfortunately after this new frame and crankset, the bike funds are seriously depleted for a bit
shaper Posted May 28, 2013 Posted May 28, 2013 havent weighed it yet, but im guessing around 12kg. lighter than my previous alu SS build (GT avalanche frame) Seems the bike building and SS bug has really taken hold........
