Nice

Good call on the crank's

Thanks, has anyone taken off the chainring on these before..I'm not sure what tool to use.If this chain brakes on me a lot, then I'm going to go back to my kink.To do that, I'd need to put a spacer behind the chainring.I don't know how to get the damn thing off..


any help on that would be sweet and thanks man..

so that is a 2.7 front tyre??
and isn't the front a 16t....?
You're right about the F chainring, but the front is a 2.7..I kept thinking the damn thing was an 18t, so use to my mods.Thanks for the catch man, I would of been like WTF this gear ratio blows..lol.I am going to change to to 16/14 should be pretty good..


I might have to chage the ratio..

you need the xtr bb tool http://www.webcyclery.com/product.php?productid=17682&cat=383&page=3

or just use a flat screw driver and hammer to undo the lockring...

btw, why don't you use the "built in" chain tensioner of the frame?

16T, or as i like to call it, chainkiller
I ordered the cloud 9 set up from heatsink and it should be here in a few days.16t is going to cause me some havic, for now it's going to have to do..

why a 2.7 in front?






I had it hanging around and someone convinced me into trying it out..We'll see how it feels, I can always go to a smaller one..

thanks for the kind words..

the bike came out pretty well..going to put the hope rear rotor on tomorrow,hope front brake-7" rotor and cloud9 bash+ring our coming soon..going to run 18/15 once it's all dialed in.The next thing I'll look into is getting some decent pedals, that will hold up to my style of riding..






been so long since I've ridden stock..it's going to suck for a bit..

Cant you take a link out of the chain and run the renen in the pushing up position? Either way, looks bitchin'

nice grab, I'm a new Rennen user and I guess I had it backwards..I'll do that today..




glad you like it,

THEDMAN
