probs dude, you've gone and done yourself proud!
|

don't get me wrong the old rockies i love, the RM7/9/X's were damn cool looking machines, but this ones is all fat and curvy and bent, it's like they've moved from a good looking design to a childs design who can't keep a straigh hand. i've no doubt they've improved geometry etc as the design has evolved, and from a riding point of view it is bound to have built on the strengths of the past models, but from a looks point of view it's not nice.
and i never claimed my kona's to be the best looking bike either, i know they're not. but at least they have one or two straight lines and don't look like they've been ridden head on into a tree and bent. |
|
|
|
dude, that looks really good!
what's the deal with the cranks though - wrong way around? are you going to be putting any decals on her? aled. |
|
|
one of the best parts of the lets gets/morzine area is those few fast turns...!
|
|
|
|
|
hi mate, glad you like how it turned out!
with regards to taking the sanctions out... i would have liked too, but having just spend rather a lot on the forks, and never taken a pair of forks apart before, i thought i'd just put my years of experience with masking tape to good use (not that painting boats is not good use...) and after a few attempts i got the tape spot off around the seals and sanctions... maybe next time i'll have a go at taking them appart (as i want to spray my travis' white to match the dh bikes colour scheme...) aled. |
|
|
nice ride... the back end looks like an old M1!
|
|
hi mate, the wheels were just the old ones i had spares off my hardtail (that have been replaced by 24"'s!) i'm waiting on chain reaction to get the nuke proof wheelsets with singletracks in stock, and then i'm treating the stinky and the stab to some new wheels!
|
|
|
hi mate, the seat and chain stays are stock, but the rocker link is a BETD long travel link to give about 6.5" of travel...
|
|
|
|
it's nearly finished being painted now...
i'll get an album of the work i've done to it up here once it's finished! it's looking pretty sweet actually, just waiting on the replacement kona and fork decals.. |
|
yeah mate, check out the new/latest dirt magazine if you can get hold of it, they managed to tag along to the blackbox test weekend with steve (pete) and josh (brycland)... not sure if it's going to make production by '09, but they're having fun testing it and steve/josh both say that they like it...
aled. |
|
|
|
|
haha, you can't really tell unless you look at the seat stays can you!
can't wait to get it sprayed and then fit the shiny bits that are taking over my bedroom on it! aled. |
|
they aint deemax's... notice the profile of the rim is perfectly round, as apposd to deemax's edge/box shape design.
POD for sure... fast as!! |
|
yep, magura brakes...!!
also - spec's own make sus throughout (forks and shock - had help from either an ex rock shox or fox worker [check out singletrack's website for the first test ride review - i saw it last month some time] ) but note tyre clearance on forks (hint: NONE!) the crown if far to low for anything other than perfectly dry trails. around 6inches all round to for those that are RAD FR (ride all day... freeride.... oh, i do love the marketing bullshite names....) aled |
