if you don't like the brown leavers on the brakes drop em in oven cleaner and you'll have some nice brushed aluminum levers cheap, easy, and no sanding involved

Thanks for the info man. But I've already used EasyOff before haha.

Kona-Zach (Oct 28, 2011 at 8:17)

This sx trail is going to be sweet

. Whats going to happen to your street bike?

joostflux (Oct 27, 2011 at 14:33)

I'm pretty excited dude. I see someone remembered my build plan I posted. At the moment the frame chilling in my garage.

josh-clifton (Oct 28, 2011 at 16:58)

Yeah it will be an awesome build. I wish i had got short travel rig instead of a full on dh bike. I think i'd be faster to on my local trails.

joostflux (Oct 28, 2011 at 17:04)

That's pretty much why I'm building this, as my local trails don't require a full 8" travel bike.

pdee (Oct 27, 2011 at 14:22)

What frame?

joostflux (Oct 27, 2011 at 14:24)

Something Speshul.

pdee (Oct 27, 2011 at 14:29)

Hardtail AM bike is my guess.

joostflux (Oct 27, 2011 at 14:29)

Not so much, decent guess though.

pdee (Oct 27, 2011 at 14:33)

I'm guessing the AM part was very close?

joostflux (Oct 27, 2011 at 14:34)

If you read above someone gave it away haha.

pdee (Oct 27, 2011 at 14:36)

Siktors.

joostflux (Oct 27, 2011 at 14:37)

joostflux (Oct 27, 2011 at 14:24)

You and me both.

willy94 (Oct 27, 2011 at 14:25)

joostflux (Oct 27, 2011 at 14:27)

Not with that much travel!

willy94 (Oct 27, 2011 at 14:29)

and with those tires, and dual brakes... fully or hardtail?

joostflux (Oct 27, 2011 at 14:29)

Fully.

nouser (Oct 27, 2011 at 14:31)

LOL, Streetsweeper.

willy94 (Oct 27, 2011 at 14:38)

Rattsl (Oct 27, 2011 at 14:54)

What year SXT?

joostflux (Oct 27, 2011 at 14:55)

'08 dood.

Rattsl (Oct 27, 2011 at 14:57)

Neatorooni, those were the good looking frames before the low standover height ones.

I secretly still want an SX 4" model. 05-08. Only because I have an entire build for one hahahaha.

joostflux (Oct 27, 2011 at 14:58)

Completely agreed, I detest the look of the newer ones. They look soo good dude. You should do it, they pop up on the BuySell every once in a while.

Rattsl (Oct 27, 2011 at 14:59)

But I want a gewd pryce dewd!!!!

joostflux (Oct 27, 2011 at 15:01)

Haggle/be patient. One will arrive.

Rattsl (Oct 27, 2011 at 15:05)

This is too tempting. I'm in debt as is hahhahahaha.

joostflux (Oct 27, 2011 at 15:56)

Haha as am I. Bikes are worth it though.

meatbucket9 (Oct 28, 2011 at 3:44)
