Ragley Marley build aka "Bob"

Another friend told me that a skinny high roller 2.1 front tyre and enduro riding can lead to performing superman moves through the trees. :ph34r:

 

I bet that friend told you how awesome it looked!

Sorry to hear that. Have you looked at one of the steel frames? The Piglet 2 has the same geometry as the Marley or Blue Pig which is even more hardcore. Just heavier...

Yes. That's the Piglet 2 I mentioned. Just as nice but wrong colour.

So... is it finished? Are you coming to scout hall this afternoon?

 

...we have a safety bridge!

 

Just waiting on my wheelbuilder.

 

Have green Spike rims going to be laced to black Hope hubs. I collected them yesterday.

Oh dear...

 

if only you had another set of wheels or another bike or something.

 

As it happens I'm going to do that this weekend. Need to get 15mm TA adapters later today.

 

The Intense needs need shock bushings before I ride it again. Even riding uphill creates a huge knocking noise.

Mounting hardware. They are so worn, they just fell out of the shock when I was removing them :unsure:

Geesh! How do you go through those things so fast? Less than a year ago you said you were replacing them!?

Nope. Haven't ever replaced them. Replaced bearings in two pivots. That's in over 2 years of ownership.

This is what Bob looks like with blue wheels. Just temporary...

even with the blue wheels this machine looks SICK. ...

 

Thanks Dude.

 

The ride on it is so fun and playful. Handled all the same jumps and drops that my 5.5 does.
