Crankset: FSA Gravity Light Crankset

Please tell me what you think of it and some constructive critism. Thanks


PICS(i hope they work)

[blakie49]

cant wait to see the finished product. Should be .......... umm diferent? Keep updating.

[dj3]

your going to put all those parts on that thing?

i'd like to see you ride trail with that and boxxers:rolleyes:

i wonder what would happen?

[ben_rides_a_bike]

if your gonna get them parts you might aswell get rid of that pecie of shit frame and look at getting a good second hand one from the for sale section

[rider219]

Do it man, just do us a favour, wear a cup when you take it for your first ride, nothing worse than pinching your nuts on a folding frame!

[PSYCHO-T]

Shock: Fox DHX
Brakes: Saint
Deraier: Sram X-7
Shifter: sram X-7
Please tell me what you think of it and some constructive critism. Thanks


WHAT WERE YOU THINKING SON?
first of all a VIVID > all
Shock: Vivid
Brakes: Codes
Deraier: Sram X0
Shifter: sram X0

:p
Should be a sick build if you get X0 gearing
if you do pimp that are, Noice

[ridingismyreligion]

Dunno if the boxxers would fit. that head tube doesnt like like 1 1/8.

[Steve's_Sky1]

i'm sorry but your joking right??

this will be interesting if he does do this.......:rolleyes:

[Karnige182]

If you can find a dhx that fits that bike props to you, as far as I know the smallest dhx is around 6". And yeah running boxxers on that thing probably isn't a great idea as the frame is made for 4" forms not 8" ones. There is a high likelyness it may snap. But ahh........good luck to you building it up, perhaps once it's done you may realize a new frame is a good idea :)

[Big T]

*cough*snap frame*cough*

[chuckies_here]

Haha this better be a joke. Otherwiseee *Shakes fist in air*
:p

[jimmy-dh]

lol thats gunna be pretty kool. will u do downhill on it?

[bikeguy70]

lol thats gunna be pretty kool. will u do downhill on it?

yep should be a good ride if i put it together:) and i wanna ride downhill on it

[Industry Nine]

Don't mean to sound lke a dick or nothing but...
your putting parts that should be on a top of the line DH bike onto a $150 K-Mart bike.

[jimmy-dh]

lol i recon it will be kool as

[cameron_15]

he's joking obviously:cool:

but it would be sick!

[Karnige182]

he's joking obviously:cool:

You know i'm pretty scared he's not joking, but he will most likely wise up as the build progresses and he realises the bike is uncontrolable because of head angles etc. I wanted to build up an old frame I had lying around (An IH one) and i found almost instantly that with big forks the bike became pretty much unrideable

[rip_it07]

if your going to put all those nice parts on that peice of shit you have way to much cash. what the f@ck are you thinking

[chuckies_here]

what the f@ck are you thinking

Thats the problem.
He isn't.....

[Mud Fliker]

now this is going to be interesting

[Zyphryss]

Theres a few problems here...

-No disc brake mounts on frame
-It's a 1" headstem
-Frame only fits 24" rear wheel
-No derailleur hanger for X7
-83mm cranks

etc etc...

[jackthewolverine]

Don't mean to sound lke a dick or nothing but...

Mate...he is joking.
It doesn't really take a brain surgen to work that one out.

[jmajor78]

Theres a few problems here...

-No disc brake mounts on frame
-It's a 1" headstem
-Frame only fits 24" rear wheel
-No derailleur hanger for X7
-83mm cranks

etc etc...

Also the rear shock doesn't have a proper swing arm so it doesn't compress at all...

[mountain_bike man]

Hahaha, its a bend-tail:p

[Macca8530]

you must have the best health insurance in the world if your gonna ride that with them parts

[mick1224]

I saw one of those in Toys R Us today when I got this for my son.

http://i427.photobucket.com/albums/pp358/mickxr8/101_0047-2.jpg

I thought about putting boxxers on it but it only has a 1/4" head tube.
Would also probably through the head angle out to much.....:p

[Booost]

l0lz l1k3 d0n7 d0 th4t fr4m3 15 5h17

Can't believe how many guys actually believed this.

[bikeguy70]

Dunno if the boxxers would fit. that head tube doesnt like like 1 1/8.


ill probly make a bigger head tube and put it on


if your going to put all those nice parts on that peice of shit you have way to much cash. what the f@ck are you thinking

i like the feel of the frame.:)

[SMIIISH]

Gotta go the king headset. e13. There's your next problem. ISCG mounts? DHX would heaps fit too ey... Custom frame job. Rekn Grip will even allow it into his shop?
Pull it "Bighit" style with the 24" on the back, 26" on the front.
+1 for Codes too!

[Stevo123]

Lol nice joke barnsy - you can only afford a katmandu :)

[Joy]

Hahah Great thread.

[bikeguy70]

Lol nice joke barnsy - you can only afford a katmandu :)

im not joking im serious:mad:

[jumphead]

haha its amazing how dumb people really are to take this thread so bloody serious, dont get me wrong i think it was a pretty funny thing to do but people acctually saying that its dumb of him to build it up are the dumb ones. anyway not my problemo.

[MTB MAD]

the boxxers wont fit in the frame

[evan thoumine 2508]

should be umm.....a nice ride:confused:

[MacNamara22]

umm just wandring why a kawasaki fame or wat ever it is called why not a decent frame like a sunday or something like that. no offence but i think it will be a waste of money.

but goo luck any way if it works it will be pretty unique.

[simmooo!]

Oh my god you are actually serious. :eek:

[bikeguy70]

what do you think

[simmooo!]

what do you think

I think your frame is going to snap.
It's been stated before but I'll state it again, your putting top of the line parts on a k-mart bike.

[giant_boy]

http://www.funpike.com/movies/images/tn_parking_lot_bike_face_plant.jpg

[Turner_rider]

I think your frame is going to snap.

I'm sure grip could put it back together and make it stronger and add a few things like a floating disc mount at the same time too ;)

[Industry Nine]

what do you think
Your a complete dickhead whose going to break your neck...
Oh, but when you DO take it to a DH track, Get your mate to take a video.
I wanna see you kill yourself time after time.

[giant_boy]

I think your frame is going to snap.
It's been stated before but I'll state it again, your putting top of the line parts on a k-mart bike.

You meen toys- r- us bike:D

[Dirt king]

Firstly you are dickhead in many ways, e.g. spending that money on a shit bike, thinking it will be good etc, but I have to laugh are your complete stupidity, I can not wait to laugh at you and the bike when you are finished.

Honest though is this attention seeking or are you completely serious? If you are serioues there is no way you will get WC's on it nor will you be able to run your Deemax's that are 26inch wheels because they won't fit, just thought I would let you know because you obviously have more money than brains no offense. :rolleyes:

[bikeguy70]

um just got new shock and i found out it dosnt fit. its not the fox one though. what should i do?

[Haro_MTB]

um just got new shock and i found out it dosnt fit. its not the fox one though. what should i do?

NO SHIT IT DOESN'T FIT. Why don't you just give up now, as this bike won't work, and if by some miracle it does, it'll ride like a POS and most likely snap, putting you or whoever is riding it in hospital.

Stop wasting people's time with this thread, it just isn't funny anymore.

[Knopey]

It doesn't fit because it's a Fox - ask for a Hardtail brand, they're made specifically for green bikes,
Your local Toys-R-Us will sell you one - if they don't have them in stock get them to order one. If they look confused don't worry, just keep asking them over & over until they order it.

[Adamski]

Leave him be....anyone heard of the Darwin Awards.

[Turner_rider]

um just got new shock and i found out it dosnt fit. its not the fox one though. what should i do?

In what sense? Maybe a custom set of reducers is all you need?

[kemmis]

Leave him be....anyone heard of the Darwin Awards.

Hahahh i love the darwin awards, and if this guy decides to ride this bike he will most likely feature in them.

[AiDeN J]

i was goin to say...
Isnt that a K-Mart bike my brother would ride around on??
good luck if u do anyways

[radbiker]

my brother had one of these and we tried to pimp it out. we got as far as the forks and they wouldnt fit. they dont fit any descent ones.

also the frame dosent last long and snapped after a few rides down keira.

[bradleyR513]

Hahahh i love the darwin awards, and if this guy decides to ride this bike he will most likely feature in them.

yes yes the Darwin awards. haha. has anyone seen the movie made from it?
i can imagine this guy in that movie and it being a massive highlight of the whole thing. And if you have seen the movie then i think this is kinda like the guy who put a jet engine on the back of a 20 year old car. haha

[Spitfire84]

Good luck man, I did up my old huffy the same way, been going strong for round a year! And im not exactly light on the bike too! Your be suprised how tough those little frames are.

[shore_rider]

Why????....new f-r-a-m-e!!!!

Good on you for sticking with it too. It would be hilarious if you where to beat people on 5k bikes who ride like nannas. :cool:

[bikeguy70]

sorry camera brocken.:(

[Breaka]

I doubt Kawasaki had any input in the building of the bike. It would have been made in the same shed as Huffy's but Kawasaki decided to paint it green and throw on a few Kawasaki stickers.

[aidensnake]

is this thread all talk, cause i really wanna see this kawasaki

[Alec McJo]

This thread proves how gullible (read:Completely brainless) some people really are :-)

[Industry Nine]

yes.............. today i got a smaller shock and it fits. it is so smooth. now cant wait to get the boxxers on there.:)
Fucking hell, You are serious... What a wanker

[tc2233]

It is a waste of money putting all of those parts onto that frame and I sort of know you and I dont think you would be able to afford all of those parts and if this is true I think your better off getting a proper DH frame. If you dont have enough money to buy all of those parts you are dreaming of you should buy my bike and use those parts and sell the frame. It will be $2000 or $3000 cheaper that way. I will talk to you at school about it.
