RodTi Posted February 21, 2011 Posted February 21, 2011 my kona: MBCT - I've only noticed now that you're running yours mullet style! Your front rim appears to be a v-brake, but obviously with disc hubs? What hubs/rims are you running - and did you build it like that from the start, or make some adjustments later? Ps - she's a beaut!
divernick Posted February 27, 2011 Posted February 27, 2011 My ride updated: I stole my pregnant wife's knobby tires and installed a 20T cog to go with my 38T chainring so I can use it offroad. I also discovered that my chain tensioner is not needed with this ratio. Still on the list to get:New lock-on gripsNew non-QR seat post clampNew pedalsNew wheel setNew hydraulic disk brakes

She certainly looks Swedish!Like the little bits of gold bling. Make sure the SP clamp is gold!
divernick Posted February 27, 2011 Posted February 27, 2011 NICE. She certainly looks Swedish!Like the little bits of gold bling. Make sure the SP clamp is gold! Yup, and the grip clamps as well! Maybe black and gold pedals too...we'll see

divernick Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 My new best friend. the Singular Swift. This bike just works, the geometry is awesome, without a doubt the best ride I've ever owned! What gear ratio are you running and do you use it exclusively offroad? Is your chain coincidently perfectly tensioned or did you have to add half-links?
RodTi Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 My new ride... Sweet! Why've you flipped the Carnegie? More leverage?
Stretched@Birth Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 Sweet! Why've you flipped the Carnegie? More leverage?Thanks! Wanted to get my front end down a little, I prefer a racier position on the bike. Need to ride it though, so may end up turning it back, or even putting on some straight bars...
