[travistrials]

You got your brakes on the wrong way around :p :p

[bash]

your maguras realy seems to be not adjusted.

The bike for riding. Not watching at it.

[fizzmahon]

Okay fixed the double picture. I fixed the magura's after I took the pictures. I have the new Plaz pads and man do they howl. Stop nice too. Will post riding pics soon.

Very nice bike

Its pity that its hard to get GU 20" in Russia

[muddyfox]

Why dont you run your rear magura hose through the frame gusset??

[fizzmahon]

Didnt have any zip ties. But when i get some spare time i am going to take the magura apart and run it through the gusset and then through the tubing.

FiZZ

oh i understand, i would be the same way. get it built and play first, then fine tune later when its raining, cold, or to freaking dark out :bigthumb:

Dude....That looks so much better with the brake cable routed properly. Well done, and nice bike!

What were you riding before (long bike or short bike), how does it feel compared to the GU long?

I ordered the GU long, no idea how it will feel, kinda scared, I was on an Echo short.

I was on an Echo Team 1003mm (Short)

The GU feels really nice, the extra length helps me feel more stable on the rear from the extra clearance.

Don't buy a BB5 for that thing, they suck. Buy the BB7. A BB5 would be about as good as running a Deore Mechanical...

Just put the BB5 on, too late. But i don't know why you say that, all my friends run BB5's and I personally love the feeling.
