supertorro Posted October 3, 2007 Author Posted October 3, 2007 Hope, with matching hubs (currently covered in a little mud)
supertorro Posted October 7, 2007 Author Posted October 7, 2007 Well. Finally it has been built. I'm looking forward to playing with her some... Â
Racer X Posted October 7, 2007 Posted October 7, 2007 Sweet cranks, they are middleburn aren't they, well enoy! What does she weigh.
supertorro Posted October 7, 2007 Author Posted October 7, 2007 Da, thanks. them cranks be middleburn. I thought yet another set of xtr cranks wouldn't differentiate, and the middleburns look nice. As to weight, I have no idea, but not too much. and seeing as I'm not the lightest person around, her weight is far less relevant than mine. Â
supertorro Posted October 7, 2007 Author Posted October 7, 2007 Unfortunately, I only rode from the shop to home, but it certainly felt good doing that. Still need to play with the shock setup and so on. If I can I will try to go for a ride tomorrow morning, maybe see if there some extra interesting bits I can do. There's a nice big hill round the corner, with a bit of a track going back into the city.

stringbean Posted October 8, 2007 Posted October 8, 2007 Â What a beaut.Like the cranks,been riding middleburn for years and love them.So after everything what did the frame eventually cost you?stringbean2007-10-08 00:39:15
supertorro Posted October 8, 2007 Author Posted October 8, 2007 1395 US for the frame.....and $400 for "customs brokers". that includes all charges\bribes\penalties, etc..... I asked for the original documentation and they said.... No. just like that. apparently they must keep the docs..... sometimes it's just easier to shake your head and walk awayÂ
MintSauce Posted October 8, 2007 Posted October 8, 2007 Hey....love it! Looks awesome with the Marzocchi Bomber. As a guy on mtbr says 'Can you do the Zokey Stokey?' Â Â Â
supertorro Posted October 8, 2007 Author Posted October 8, 2007 da, she is certainly looking sweet. Now to learn some real riding skills and do her justice. Â
