Finished assembly and bedding in brakes. Spent a little time trying bunnies and mannies on a barren street. This bike feels real good. Cant wait to get out on a proper sesh.

fuckin beautiful

Paint has metallic flake which doesnt really show in pics but very nice.

Fuck miles 15-20, I would arrange a stealth shuttle for that. What is training?

 

[Swoofty]

Oh no! Not a full Hex! You're gonna have to change so many crappy parts, but the frame and fork are legit. I hope you ordered it with good brakes at least.

Full Echo build with HS22. Nothin but the best!

That’s gonna be lovely

No, I'm not kidding. Most of those Inspired parts are heavy garbage. Adam even said those rims dent easily.

King hubs are flexy.

Rock ‘‘em til things break
Gonna be beautiful

Simtra ST-1. Sick early 00s comp geo. White industries hubs and freewheel. Mono trials brakes. I love that its quiet. 25lbs. Still figuring out bar/lever angle. Rear brake completely useless right now but I'll get that taken care of soon ish. Brand new Der Kaiser hasnt even been ridden yet (but I did have to shave down some of the center knobs to make it fit). All of my favorite things are in this picture.

nice ride man. Where are u located? Somewhere in Florida? I am in Metrowest Orlando. Looking for anyone to ride with.

 

[De_Nada]

Hey @RONNYTRIALS I'm in Toledo, Ohio. Visited friends near Daytona Beach last Thanksgiving though. Might need another tropical escape after the holidays. I'll holler next time I'm coming to your area.

I want to apologize to all those V brake lovers out there. I'm finally upgrading? transitioning? changing my Zoot from v to disc. But for one shining moment it had the most powerful braking on the plant: V plus DISC!!! The lever end was a bit of a problem though 🤣

Patent that shiz

It's been a while.
Built this up earlier this year, but moved interstate and haven't had a chance to unpack it yet.

Only thing that bugs me: tyre clearance. Had some rare af Ikon 2.2" tanwalls mounted (a la Ali C) but alas, no fit in chaintay yoke! Had to use some Crossmark II 2.1", they just clear (kinda rub one side in a certain spot, d'oh).

 

[AgrAde]

That is exceptionally pretty. Baffling that it can't fit tires in it.

XTR stuff looks dope on there.

 

[De_Nada]

What is it? Looks hott but wtf tire clearanance

 

[Swoofty]

That's pretty sad that a brand new Drax won't fit a very common rear street tire. My (low) opinion of Extension hasn't changed. However, I guess now that Echo is no more, Extension might fill that void.

 

[curly_freak]

Custom Addict build (from trials addict). Hope Tech 4 trial disc brakes and some Maestro carbon forks fitted, gives it a bit of a change and a refresh About 17 lbs, could lose a little more, but it's a fairly solid build right now.
1020wb +90bb 350cs not sure on head angle as the bottom adapter headset cup will slacken that off a little as well as it having raised the bb 5mm. Just need to get out and ride it!
