rouxtjie Posted November 9, 2012 Share Thoughts on a Niner EMD9 frame for a SS? Not the new hydro formed frame. The old school, round tubes...Hey ryan...yea me again....its a pearl. Here is mine and loving it to bits. Remember its not a SS specific frame so you are going to have to get a tensioner. pietas 1 Link to comment https://forum.bikehub.co.za/topic/85763-post-your-mtb-ss/page/47/#findComment-1846688 Share on other sites More sharing options...
pietas Posted November 9, 2012 Share Finally completed her last night. Her name is Liela The wheels are old. Don't have the bucks now to buy new hoops as well. Stem is loaner from other bike. Until I find correct length (Thomson 90mm?) Still to be done: get a stem, XT ice tech rotors and get rid of the creak Longer term changes: get a Lefty and new wheels And take her for a proper ride this weekend :-) Flowta, Wyatt Earp, rouxtjie and 1 other 4 Link to comment https://forum.bikehub.co.za/topic/85763-post-your-mtb-ss/page/47/#findComment-1846689 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember its not a SS specific frame so you are going to have to get a tensioner.Thanks Rouxtjie... It'll be the same as my Cotic, running a tensioner... I can pick up the frame cheap cheap and was thinking of building it rigid... PS: Your bike looks awesome Sort out those brake hoses though - you gonna strangle yourself!

Swift01 Posted November 9, 2012 Share I have a yellow Qhubeka SS bike that I have............ read earlier posts to check that puppy out almost crashed twice in the complex testing it out.

Swift01 Posted November 9, 2012 Share You have no idea if your feet are not at 3 and 9 pm you have no braking power and you naturally want to back pedal. I thought they were 20kg but it seems with the carrier it is way more. Will put it onto the scale this weekend. Cool thing is you need 1 spanner. A number 13 does all and while trying to get the saddle height and handle bars right you just stop, kick down the stand work on it jump on push forward and flicks up and away you go...... Sounds like a perfect Criticalmass bike Link to comment https://forum.bikehub.co.za/topic/85763-post-your-mtb-ss/page/47/#findComment-1846909 Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have unfortunenately spoiled me now gords and I will be intensily upset if you don't rock another 5L heineken next time, oh it must be cold like last month in its bed of ice....if we can mount 2 opticals on either side of the cooler box(1 for cane and the other for brandy) and have a few cans of cream soda and coke...you will be a proper mobile bar....Larry can I have a double john deer please?

Swift01 Posted November 9, 2012 Share The bike I have has solid steel tubing bike rack and stand. Adds on some serious Kg's to the bike but could take a 10litre keg.
