The Ti spokes are crap, as soon as that wheel is busted (won't be long) I will be going back to some DT Alpines or similar.

Bit on the flexy side eh. If you want to save weight and have some wank, check out Sapim's CX-Ray spokes. Despite their lack of weight, they're still stupidly strong and stiff.
Otherwise I find stocko double butted racing spokes work a treat if you're working with a budget.
Very nice ride too mate. Love the setup http://forums.farkin.net/images/icons/icon14.gif

:( I hear every FARKIN day "Single pivot this ..single pivot that" if only the fools realised the "no maintainence" beauty of these beasts!!!
Jda Nice one, enjoy it, whilst your prodantic mates bikes are sitting in a shed or workshop waitin` for bearings or pivot pins/bushes!!!!!

haha, yeah, if only sram made a roady sized derailure, or better yet, one that didnt explode after hitting a twig!

Anyway, love the bike mate - the Mojo kit is tops, best thing you can do to a boxxer is take out everything that makes it a boxxer and replace it with something that works!

Nice one, looks light too:)
