Wyatt Earp Posted August 28, 2009 Posted August 28, 2009 Here is a nice bling bike we built for a good customer. Don't ask about the saddle tilt, that was not our doing http://i230.photobucket.com/albums/ee214/wrxipmreza/titus.jpg

gummibear Posted August 28, 2009 Posted August 28, 2009 Awsome bike but i hope he isn't going to ride the saddle like that.
Face Plant Posted August 28, 2009 Posted August 28, 2009 dude? you spend that amount of money on a ride like that you ride it with the saddle anyway you want to lol
_Daemon_ Posted August 30, 2009 Posted August 30, 2009 Nice bike. What's the thing between the bottle cage and the frame?
Iwan Kemp Posted August 30, 2009 Posted August 30, 2009 I must say I was a little disappointed to see that they didn't change the tubes when they renamed the Ti as well. Prefer the look of the Alu FTM.
Slowbee Posted August 30, 2009 Posted August 30, 2009 That green motolite was a nice looking machine .... still prefer the racer x tho.
Wyatt Earp Posted August 31, 2009 Author Posted August 31, 2009 Nice bike. What's the thing between the bottle cage and the frame? Nicely spotted, it's a Topeak x-15 adapter so that you can pull the bottle out at an angle. Happy Birthday W.
mad bout mtb Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 Love the red bits on this bike!!!!AMAZING!Sweet X0 RD
vanniri Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 Nice built. I notice the frame protector stickers - for me it spoils the frame. In my wanderings I have seen the following alternatives: My previous LBS used to buy O-rings and skewered them on the cables for use as frame protection. When using a cable tie to fix a cable on a frame without a small little stub: cut a piece of rubber tube, 1/2 cm long. Slip the cable tie through it before looping it round the cable and back through the tube. Then tie round the frame or front shock. This looks great, I though it was a special thingy until I removed the cable one day - was pretty impressed! Plz note: I am not sending this to talk anyone down.

[/quote'] can you expand on the above a bit more. do you tie the cable tie just around the cable and then fix it to the frame with another tie ? wots goin on here ?
vanniri Posted September 6, 2009 Posted September 6, 2009 Only one cable tie is used. Push the cable tie through the cut-off rubber pipe section, circle the same section of the cable tie around the brake cable, loop it back into the cut-off rubber pipe section, then tie the cable tie around the frame/shock. Hope the above explains
