Pipsqueak Posted September 18, 2012 Share Collected my PYGA Zero29 on Monday: After the first ride on Tuesday: And.... With a few trinkets added today: Build is: Fox Float RL ForkXT, except brakes, they're SLXFSA Afterburner stem and handlebarsESI Chunky gripsGray Loaded SeatpostKCNC Seat clamp (soon to be a red Loaded seat clamp)Selle Italia C2 SaddleStans Crest wheelsetBlackburn bottle cages. My impressions so far... Awesome bike, no photos can justify just how nice the raw finish is. I haven't ridden a hardtail in 8 years, I found this bike handles far better than my 26er. I am amazed how it climbs!! And the singletrack..... WOW! Now all I need is more time to ride the damn beast!!! Wow that seat post looks very nice. Is that grey or silver? Where dyou get the loaded stuff? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flyguysa Posted September 18, 2012 Share Wow that seat post looks very nice. Is that grey or silver? Where dyou get the loaded stuff? The seatpost is gray. Now I need a red stem and gray handlebar from Loaded and it's sorted! Buycyle has a decent range of Loaded stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAAD4 Posted September 18, 2012 Share You can also contact W Squared Cycles in Hilton, who are the Loaded agents. They have the lot in store and I'm sure they will post to you. I bought my seatpost and clamp from them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pipsqueak Posted September 24, 2012 Share What BBs is everyone using. I put in a cheap Shimano plastic one and its creaking already. Gonna regrease the axle & splines but I wondered if there was a better option. Are all press fit BBs plastic? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
udxcob Posted September 24, 2012 Share Surely press fit means you actually press the sealed bearings into the frame? What part if that could be plastic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pipsqueak Posted September 25, 2012 Share Shimano's version of press fit comes in a whole unit, not unlike the Hollowtech screw in one. So the bearing cups and tube are plastic. The whole thing cost me about R200, so I need to find out if here are better options to this piece of plastic cr#p. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pipsqueak Posted September 25, 2012 Share Pity no BB90. I guess I just strip the crank, grease everything and retorque it all. The BB is new, I've ridden maybe 150 kays on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryanpmb Posted September 30, 2012 Share Anyone with a Black Pyga. Please post pics. G Page 3. Pretty sure it's the only black one that came out the factory. Others, would've been bought raw and sprayed by the owner. White Gobi now replaced by a black Gobi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
