Love the colour, but must be something with that powdercoat cause it shouldn't chip. Mine is rock hard.

Aye I think you're right to be honest, it was chipping as I was pressing the bearings in (on the rear from the tool). It doesn't look like it has been sand blasted (it was polished before).

I'm going to give them a call tomorrow

Finally got my Suppressor built up. Just swapped out the stem and bars for sixc and atlas 35mm options. Pretty excited to see what she can do this spring

Ive had my Transition painted in Desert turquoise & finally replaced the pedals with something decent and grippy. Sorry for the potato pictures, I'll get some better ones when my decals turn up.

Hey folks, just have a question about others' bottlerockets and weight. Ive got a large 09 that's weighing in at about 40lbs. Im looking to rebuild it lighter and wondering if there are any parts you'd recommend. Thank ya!

26" pike and vivid rear shock. Then some bombproof rims and decent hubs and you'll be fine. If you wanna go clutch 1x10 with a narrow wide ring you can. It works just fine as I run it and have yet to drop a single chain

I want the Suppressor so bad. It would mean selling my Double and Deity however

How does she ride?

Would love one to replace my ariel 161. Then I'd have 3 Trannys...

I have to ask, thoughts on the x2 on the covert? I think it would be interesting to try.
