Just got this built not too long ago. Pretty sure some may have remembered me from a last post =P
Just want some feedback (positive or negative)
Have not finished. But need some advice on what saddle, and bars. The theme i am going for is Black & Yellow. I will sand down my rear B43’s yellow. I will be using my Nitto 100 Stem with a clamp size of 25.4
black and yellow black and yellow black and yellow black and yellow
anyway, go to lbs, buy a cheap 1.1/8 stem and risers, get them to cut the risers down to 600mm, put on yellow bmx grips. It’ll end up pretty cheap.
oh fuck that shit its threaded? just get some nitto rizors from saint cloud, then stick some yellow oury’s on there, and grab a yellow saddle, they’ll have one kickin around.
Looking good man, although in my opinion the braking surface looks a bit harsh against the yellow on the front wheel. I’d go with a black turbo saddle and steel risers.
Look forward to riding it, it’s gonna feel way better than your last build
I’m assuming a brake is going on the front anyway (though I think the fork isn’t drilled at the rear side for an inset brake nut, you can always widen it with a drill/dremel or LBS shop.
A machined braking surface is tonnes better than trying to brake on a non machined surface in the wet.
Hrmm, i’ll see how i go with it. I’ll definently post it up. But i did buy a saddle. just plain black. Pivotel seat post? Is there a way to fit a standard saddle on that? Thanks for the feedback.
I sold most my parts though. i know it would of looked good but too late now cz sold it all. I am only using rear wheel, stem and pedals from last build.
Yeah i figured, is there another way around it. I bought it new from Hell on Wheels (Seat Post) … I realized when i got home. The guy from the Deus Shop said you may need to stretch the saddle a lil. I don’t know. Maybe should sell my seat post.
