That's a sweet looking machine! I bet it's really fun to ride!!!

Is that a pink NoThreadSet?

[James12]

No Its a red one, I wasnt able to get my hands on a pink one

[o/t] if anyone wants some pink king hubs theres a set in blackmans in penrith [/o/t]
looks really good :D those hookworms look huge for some reason... :S

that is very nice, stealth. it looks to be a little on the heavy side though. you said your goin to put an 11 tooth on the rear, im interesed in what sort of driver your gonna get.

[James12]

yes this bike is heavy when u pick it up but when your are riding it, it is very very nimble and manouverable in the air and for technical stuff. And as for the driver my LBS which is brunswick street cycles they have 11 tooth cogs for the Tuff-Neck SS cassete hub.

The bike looks real solid, the rotor looks like a dice of armor type i could be rong so corect me if im wrong. Move the seat a little back it well just looks a little goofy. Noce WORk!!!

30x11 is pretty high gearing i think... nice setup tho' my new bike will be similar

sweet bike but i think ur seat is on a bit much of an angle

[matt99]

Jims..... 243 is... mmmmmmmmm, its like mine but clean. (And smaller, and i hate to addmit but a whole lot better). Get out there and ride, its too clean.

[James12]

thanks for all your comments and suggestions.
I moved the seat back yesterday and reduced the tilt.
And will soon have my Hope M4 put on it.
