YUMEYA Posted December 21, 2012 Share I'd love a set but budget simply didnt allow. Very happy with my Hope/Loaded combo.Yip, They are pricey. I picked them up for a song. But the catch was that only 28h was available.

YUMEYA Posted December 22, 2012 Share Today was family day and could not spend time with my new awesomeness. Also found out that my Headset Press Tool is out dated.Ran by Mark @ Crown who whipped out his OMG PARK TOOL HHP-2!! Mark sorted out the the headset and BB issue for me one time. Mark is also good at guilt trips .Park Tool HHP-2 wish listed. AHA...will make a awesome Christmas gift for my wife. Park tool HHP-2 moved to basket. I wish. As you can see all I did was fit the fork, cranks and rims just to give us something to perv over so long. Bryan aka Jr will be joining me tomorrow for a mother of a day. Drinking cappuccino , speaking foreign and buidlingmofo machine beasts. http://i187.photobucket.com/albums/x309/AhRO_bucket/IMG_0930.jpg Captain Fastbastard Mayhem, Peewee1, Delilah and 3 others 6 Link to comment https://forum.bikehub.co.za/topic/124960-x2-ibis-sl-r-parental-guidance-is-advised/page/4/#findComment-1891215 Share on other sites More sharing options...

YUMEYA Posted December 23, 2012 Share Yoh! Lekker day to day. But we are definitely not what I would call efficient. We did plenty of eating, talking, more talking and very little building.Any one that may be interested, there will be a brand new Schwalbe Hans Dampf 2.35 Tyre available for sale soon. Jr feels it is too wide and is changing to 2.25 nobby nic.We had time to install shifters and brakes but the caliper adapters provided with our brakes are for IS and not for Post mount like we need. Some pics of our progress. http://i187.photobucket.com/albums/x309/AhRO_bucket/IMG_1043.jpg http://i187.photobucket.com/albums/x309/AhRO_bucket/IMG_1044.jpg Cheers jared gp, DR ◣◢ and Delilah 3 Link to comment https://forum.bikehub.co.za/topic/124960-x2-ibis-sl-r-parental-guidance-is-advised/page/4/#findComment-1891549 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaco-fiets Posted December 24, 2012 Share Never been a Ibis fan (don't know why because they are unique) but i cant wait to see these 2 bikes fully built. Reckon it would be the "own built" of the year here!

YUMEYA Posted December 25, 2012 Share Ok I am very impatient.So looked at the Sram Hose cutters and noticed that it makes use of stanley blades. I am going to take my stanley knife with a new blade to the the hoses.Fingers crossed for straight clean cut.

DR ◣◢ Posted December 25, 2012 Share Nice one man. That is how we used to cut the hoses on the Magura brakes. Works really well. Speaking of DIY, i cut the steerer on the Lyrik using a Dremel. 100% perfect cut.
