Trackz Posted May 4, 2009 Posted May 4, 2009 Nice one Daemon. I especially like the pics :-), nice use of DOF.
AndreZA Posted May 4, 2009 Posted May 4, 2009 That really looks hot. What happened to the SS idea? I saw a guy yesterday morning again on one but he had the carbon rigid fork on his. It looks really nice.
_Daemon_ Posted May 4, 2009 Author Posted May 4, 2009 That really looks hot. What happened to the SS idea? I saw a guy yesterday morning again on one but he had the carbon rigid fork on his. It looks really nice. Still happening, just running it gear for mabalingwe.
AndreZA Posted May 5, 2009 Posted May 5, 2009 Are there printing on the crinkle cut spacers? Mine does not have any printing on.
Thug Posted May 5, 2009 Posted May 5, 2009 Very sweet Daemon. Bike rides extremely well and flies over the BMX jumps. I'm torn in 2 minds.............. eish............. what to do!!
_Daemon_ Posted May 5, 2009 Author Posted May 5, 2009 Are there printing on the crinkle cut spacers? Mine does not have any printing on. Yup there is on one printing on the spacers
_Daemon_ Posted May 5, 2009 Author Posted May 5, 2009 Very sweet Daemon. Bike rides extremely well and flies over the BMX jumps. I'm torn in 2 minds.............. eish............. what to do!! hehehe first ride on the bmx track...was fun! But your 29er ss rigid got more air
_Daemon_ Posted May 5, 2009 Author Posted May 5, 2009 Very sweet Daemon. Bike rides extremely well and flies over the BMX jumps. I'm torn in 2 minds.............. eish............. what to do!! Get one you know you want to!
levett Posted May 5, 2009 Posted May 5, 2009 That really looks hot. What happened to the SS idea? I saw a guy yesterday morning again on one but he had the carbon rigid fork on his. It looks really nice. That could well be Jerrard - I bought his 29er Frame, he got the SS frame with the sliding dropouts as the replacement. If it is his, it's VERY light So far, for mine, I've got the On-One wheels and the RST forks (both that Kiwi - Planet-X sells), I'm putting a X.9 Front Derailleur on (Jerrard informs me that this gives the best clearance), KCNC SC Wing Stem and Flat Bars. the rest I'm deliberating on (a question of want vs cost vs 'bits' that I have!)
Kiwi Posted May 5, 2009 Posted May 5, 2009 Hey Daemon, The Scandal has built up sweet! I forgot to tell you there is a cool method to max out the FD clearence on 29ers here: http://picasaweb.google.co.uk/northmalvern/ScandalFrontMechAlteration#
AndreZA Posted May 5, 2009 Posted May 5, 2009 So it is recommended to get a top pull (obvious) regular swing front derailleur for these frames or the top swing one?
Danger Dassie Posted May 5, 2009 Posted May 5, 2009 Those look like De Kerf stays' date=' very sexy.[/quote'] As well as the Commencal hardtails... berry nice, as they say in Andorra
Kiwi Posted May 5, 2009 Posted May 5, 2009 So it is recommended to get a top pull (obvious) regular swing front derailleur for these frames or the top swing one? Definietly go for a top pull. Here's one I finished this morning (Shimano Deore LX), on it's way to the Cape tonight:
AndreZA Posted May 5, 2009 Posted May 5, 2009 So that is the top pull, conventional swing (like road bike) that has been chopped like in the pics you posted?
Kiwi Posted May 5, 2009 Posted May 5, 2009 That's the one. The SRAM X7 and X9 FDs have enough clearence but if you trim a X7 or X9 Top pull you get that extra bit of clearence there as well.
