Damnnn man

That's a beauty !!
What will the specs be?

Mikeyc1988 (Nov 1, 2012 at 3:02)

Thanks buddy! Unsure of the specs so far. What I have in mind is saint gearing, maybe hope brakeswt and some hope pro 2 Evo hubs in gold laced to the brand new mavic 823 Rims. Rear shock will be the last component replaced...I have a double barrel on mind!

nielsdewit (Nov 1, 2012 at 3:06)

Wouw that's a sick spec list man Enjoy the build !!

Mikeyc1988 (Nov 1, 2012 at 3:07)

you have too much money to be thinking about a ccdb! already!
Are you going to run tubeless or not?

Mikeyc1988 (Nov 2, 2012 at 10:01)

Mmm what do you think about running tubeless? The mavic 823 rims I'm looking to buy are tubeless compatible.

batmanthedhrider (Nov 2, 2012 at 10:16)

well what do you normally ride? as tubeless is good, but can be alot of hastle sometimes.
im currently running the cheapest 1.95 tubes i could find and they are perfect

Mikeyc1988 (Nov 2, 2012 at 10:19)

I run tubes but I want this build to be as lightweight as possible. Would I need a special kit to run tubeless?

batmanthedhrider (Nov 2, 2012 at 10:35)

just tubless tyres, and the tubeless kit i thinks, not 100%

Mikeyc1988 (Nov 1, 2012 at 4:18)

haha i know mate! opinion appreciated mate...regarding the chain device, white sliders with a white taco or black sliders with a black taco?

dave-clarkson-photography (Nov 1, 2012 at 5:15)

Black taco/black sliders

Demonpyro (Nov 9, 2012 at 11:42)

What cranks going leaning to then fella..?

Mikeyc1988 (Nov 9, 2012 at 11:46)

I think itsgoing to be the new saints buddy! Was meant to buy a set last week but instead bought a double barrel...oooops! haha

Demonpyro (Nov 9, 2012 at 15:48)

Yeah the look more plush now they have bolts hidden clever like but don't know why they dont make chain ring bolt covers any way..?
No hard eh ?

Mikeyc1988 (Nov 9, 2012 at 23:10)

That would have been a good idea actually! Your right, it wouldn't have been a hard thing to do. Im sure there's a reason for it though

roach87 (Nov 1, 2012 at 2:12)
