Take it as it comes from Pyga

What would you pair the Pike with on the rear?

[the nerd]

I would go for the MRP Stage, super slick fork! 

Guide RS's or hopes :-p 

Flow MK3 on Hope Pro 4 

 

Not a reverb dropper, something else, anything really... 

[the nerd]

actually, 

 

if he runs SRAM brakes, XT shifters, then he still heading for 3 clamps per side.

Shifter

Combined shock/fork

 

Right

Problem Solvers will work just fine... 

[awesme]

How many things will the problem solver combine (not knowing them)

PS edited below post and added brands.

And grip shifters would clean up the bar and they are way better. Well, you did ask!

unless he runs the problemsolvers, in which case it'll be 2 per side.

This. With a kakload of bottomless bands in it. 

[awesme]

... so Problem Solver then, Please, otherwise it will be a VERY busy handlebar.

 

 

what is he planning for stem and handlebar btw?

He currently has a Easton haven carbon bar, so probably something similar, XT pedals. What is an alternative or better dropper than the Reverb, and cost?

[awesme]

Consider the XT Trail pedal's. PD M8020's

 

The bigger surface area is a major bonus.

Hi Guys,

 

My father-in-law is building up a new Pyga Stage and I would just like to get a bit of information with regards to any alternative part options. A bit of info, it must be 2x11 and rider weight of 104kg. 

 

So this is the build plan:

 

Frame - Pyga Stage

Wheels - Flow Ex (v3) on Hope (Pro 4)

Fork - SID/Pike/Reba, and other 120mm option? (Pike in 120mm)

Rear - Monarch

Groupset - XT 2x11

Brakes - Guide Ultimates / RS

Seatpost - Reverb Stealth (Lyne Contour Dropper) Link: Here

 

If you were to change anything what would it be?

 

Thanks

Something cable actuated... Like the Lyne mentioned above...

Nor sure if they're problem solver clamps but my bike came with one clamp for the shifter, brake lever AND the dropper. so even with a lockout instead he will be smiling

SRAM?

 

If it's all SRAM then it'd be their matchmaker clamp.

SRAM could also be run 2 x 11 - GX has a 2 x 11 specific rear dr - awesome bit of kit with a 42/10 cluster capability - more than 2 x 11 shimano which limits it to 40/11 I think (not 100% on that)

[awesme]

Shimano has the XT available in 2x11 as 11-42.

You can also fit a Sunrace 11-46 at the back with a single 32 or 34 chainring, when using their long cage SGS derailer.
