warawowo Posted December 31, 2014 Author Posted December 31, 2014 Controls. Absolutely loving the gripshift, takes me back many years but wow it's fabulous. Brakes still bit iffy, needs to be bedded in properly.
warawowo Posted December 31, 2014 Author Posted December 31, 2014 Must admit the sram grips was a bit disappointing, it was raining and they are way more slippery than my raceface grips on other bike.
warawowo Posted December 31, 2014 Author Posted December 31, 2014 Another look. Would have been very crowded if a front derailleur was needed as well
warawowo Posted December 31, 2014 Author Posted December 31, 2014 The business end, xo1 drivetrain. All I can say, I'm sold within 5kms.
warawowo Posted December 31, 2014 Author Posted December 31, 2014 Total weight with pedals a much better than initially expected 13.6kg [emoji39] [emoji39]
Odinson Posted January 1, 2015 Posted January 1, 2015 Finally ready to ride! Gorgeous build! Must have cost quite a few pretty pennies. Now, all you need to do is to cut the steerer to size and chuck all those spacers.
LazyTrailRider Posted January 1, 2015 Posted January 1, 2015 Gorgeous build! Must have cost quite a few pretty pennies. Now, all you need to do is to cut the steerer to size and chuck all those spacers. Yip, and put some proper pedals on. After that, you're sorted!
Odinson Posted January 1, 2015 Posted January 1, 2015 Yip, and put some proper pedals on. After that, you're sorted! Quite right - a set of Shimano XTR's.
amasendeinja Posted January 1, 2015 Posted January 1, 2015 Really nice build, and great thread. Enjoy!
EmptyB Posted January 1, 2015 Posted January 1, 2015 Must admit the sram grips was a bit disappointing, it was raining and they are way more slippery than my raceface grips on other bike.Did that mess with the grip shifting at all?
warawowo Posted January 1, 2015 Author Posted January 1, 2015 Yip, and put some proper pedals on. After that, you're sorted!Got a set of mallets that Will go on eventually
warawowo Posted January 1, 2015 Author Posted January 1, 2015 Quite right - a set of Shimano XTR's.Ya i wish I could, I have a set on my other bike, changed to them from xt brakes. Really cannot justify spending double the money for very very little improvement. Very few things comes close to a proper set up set of xt brakes and I have had many different brakes.
