so from what I can tell on this build is you are going to be building a better spec and version of this with better geo http://www.bigbmx.com/

You could say that about any frame, its like saying an S&M is just an apollo bmx with better geo...



It has the same amount of similarities with that as any other mtbmx, 2 triangles facing opposite directions. with the same base height

Yupperoo
get some flows. crazy light

you have no idea what is up my sleve(s). Lets just say, there might be bladed spokes and a rigid fork involved/a purchase from tune.
id stay away from bladed. Just get some sapim double butted (triple on the front?). Bladed spokes create some crazy drag while spinning, not to mention they are super strong vertically, yet fairly weak horizontaly

Becuase they are a bit flexy, and with this new frame i wont really have room for flex.

knew exactly what you were thinking, but its not worth it, they dont like side forces, so an under/over rotated spin will go to town on them, seen it done, didnt last long.

honestly get some sapim laser or d-light spokes

Well, what I think ima do is put my 831 and suprelights on a ibis tranny for xc/trail/commuting and trick that out (I just got a job at a shop and want to build a bike taking advantage of my ep) and then get a rigid (proba an ns rns), districts, and a new wheelset for this frame, and keep the deity as a spare or sell it if I fall in love with my new frame. So wheelset idea: chris king rear, ns something 10mm front on Stan's no tubes flows in black with black cx rays front and black dt double butted rear (2.0-1.Cool pro lock nips all around.

The rear hub still has plenty room for spacing out your chainline? Sounds like a no-expense-spared dream build. But I don't like the sound of these bladed spokes.

Also: weren't some of your HA/BB calculations based on suspension sag?
