Don1 Posted June 7, 2010 Posted June 7, 2010 Thx Bos - 11.9kg can still tweek a bit, but ja powertap hub and some other parts are still a bit heavy!
mtb_Josh Posted June 7, 2010 Posted June 7, 2010 So I broke my old frame' date=' wore out a chainring, tyres and pedals and needed a new seatpost for the frame. This is what I ended up with: [img']https://cdn.bikehub.co.za/uploads2/20100606_090345_STA60015small.JPG[/img] It weighs 10.3kg at the moment... not bad for an aluminium bike with a reba fork!This look quick! Nice work! Thanks! Well, If I cant be quick I can at least look quick!
mtb_Josh Posted June 7, 2010 Posted June 7, 2010 how do get an alum to weigh that little help me me? I posted a list of most of the parts one page back. I can give you the exact weights of most of the stuff if you want?
Sloggy Posted June 8, 2010 Posted June 8, 2010 not necc i will look at the page back very impressed, nice ride
BogusOne Posted June 12, 2010 Posted June 12, 2010 I have been looking for a dual suspention for some time now but being on a tight budget they are really hard to come by. BUT today i got this beauty of a frame for a really good price and immediately built her when i got home. What an awesome ride! Not one of the lightest builds but im running XO twisters with X-9 RD, Hayes Stroker disc brakes, modified LX crank, Deore FD, WTB Speeddisc wheels on Kenda SmallBlock 8's (tubeless) Reba Race with remote lockout and full Ritchey Pro cockpit.
blackbutton Posted July 22, 2010 Posted July 22, 2010 Rebuilt my previous bike(token frame) with new 12k weave chinese carbon frame, seat and wheelset. Still working on some more decal designs for the frame.
Selous Scout (aka LegTrap) Posted July 22, 2010 Posted July 22, 2010 Great looking Specialized but not too sure about the red seatpost
Hairy Posted July 22, 2010 Posted July 22, 2010 Nice one BB ... that bottle cage needs to be plain carbon though
Flowta Posted July 22, 2010 Posted July 22, 2010 My GT Sanction (aka the General) Just put my new custom chainrings on (38/24 on an almost finished Jones mod XTR 960 crankset, haven't got round to polishing it yet
Hairy Posted July 22, 2010 Posted July 22, 2010 BogusOne Did you polish the old LX crank... I have one like lying about at home that could do with a little work. H
blackbutton Posted July 22, 2010 Posted July 22, 2010 Nice one BB ... that bottle cage needs to be plain carbon though Had one on that I ordered with the frame, lost 2 bottles, constantly worrying that I'll end up 40km away from home without a sip to drink. These simple plastic Rav-X cages are almost like super glue, no worries.
