Recommended Posts

Thanks Mish!

 

As for the build... I'll basically be building my Jekyll over. So with the exception of a few parts. Spec is as follows:

 

Lyrik DH in the front

Kashima RP23 at the back

Old XTR cranks with Narrow-Wide and orange straitline bash guard.

Saint 10sp clutch.

Hope Tech M4 Evo's

Reverb with orange straitline clamp

Renthal bars with orange grips

Orange easton havoc stem (only part I'm waiting on)

Black (don't tell anyone) spank spike 28s on green straightpull hope pro 2s

 

If spank made spike 28s in orange, I'd be sorted

Orange custom graphics in the pipeline for the Spanks?

Looking good but now you know you will have to change your signature on the hub.

Bwahahahahahahaha!

Perhaps you can just build them straight across...

 

Or get a set of new Tesla Evo hubs... That lime green doesn't really work anyway :whistling:

I own a pair of tweet rims, they are sexy. Will take a pic tonight and upload for you to get perspective and realise you are about to put black rims on the sexiest bike you own.

The weeding process and my attempt to put an outter and inner together... when it came to application...

 

it failed... miserably!

 

I then decided to layer it individually...

Thanks Bogus... it's not as impressive as making one's own carbon frame :thumbup: ... but it's a fun little project :lol:

 

Still a long way to go though :ph34r:
