 oh and 160 for sure.... anything else would be uncivilized Eek

 diggin' the raw burn finish. 160 is a solid choice. Maybe sub 65 HA? trail slayer in the making. enjoy the build! are you taking apart the babah?

 @conv3rt: yeah all parts over but headset. my guess is a 64.5-8ish HA? 65.5 @ 140 but I will let someone else do the figuring I will just put it to the dirt.

 @sterlingmagnum: ordered one.... What headset does it need? Ec44 bottom and zs upper? No details on their site for that.

 @sterlingmagnum: Sweet. Gonna go orange hope I think and hope it works with the raw. As it certainly isn't a light frame, might give a dropper another go again finally too.
  • 1 0
 @sterlingmagnum: Scratch that. The hope orange stuff can sod off, too expensive all that stuff, despite it being great. NUkeproof headset, da bomb blue seat clamp to match my blue hope top cap and blue koozers I already have.

Went for that cheap brand-x dropper too that is getting good reviews.

 @mgolder: have link for the dropper? Curious havent heard about that... Yep nukeprook headset is good had one on pig.

Heard good things, and the reviews on the site seem to back it up too.

 @sterlingmagnum: Absolutely. Better for you given the pound is worthless currently too. Well worth a try.

 Sweeet, what happened to the babah?
  • 1 0
 It took a brutal slam, (or few) ... rear end got all f*cked up. I will more than likely be able to save it for less aggro riding but its time as all around attacker is over.

 I ordered it Friday...it came today mid day from the UK!...Only problem is the headset I ordered from California will take twice as long...I couldn't find one in a local shop.... so I have to just look at it for a few days.

 @sterlingmagnum: don't on one sell headsets as well? Damn good service. They look nice those frames. I've still got my 45650B hardtail and it rips.

 @GaryOrange5: probably but I thought the thing would take a couple of weeks not two days. Thought I'd be fondling a head set not a frame...

 Sweet man. I want one.

 price is right

 Same with the 16" 45650b at $160, but the $70 shipping kills it for me. I'll get a new frame one of these days.

 @StUone7: still less than anything else on the market at the moment. especially with that geo. It should be really good.
  • 1 0
 Yea I know and its taken a lot of restraint for me not to buy it. But the 18" would fit me better, and I still owe money on the damn Stumpy...
