Goddamn cataracts are acting up...

slobert · 05-19-2010, 01:11 PM

Ha! Actually looking at the picture from the side, I can see how you thought that. Theres like a line in the rock or something behind the bike that looks like the chain. On another note I rode the bike for an hour and half today and love it. I put longer higher stem on it and it fits me great. I had several people ask me about the bike today wich was cool too.

I've been flogging this heavy thing for five years or more now. The specs change almost everytime I ride. I know I should get a "trials bike" but I kinda like being able to switch it up without switching bikes... and I'm poor.

edit- found more recent pic.

Bad idea. Especially with a ride like that.

You've been wanting everything TRD.

the nuge5 · 06-03-2010, 08:59 PM

well lets just say that riding a man's bike and not a boys feels good....lol, it feels easier to balance on two wheels, but my mod feels a lot more balanced on the rear

Ok. I finally have a decent enough bike to post up on here. I may make some adjustments such as going front Maguras - but the BB7 is dialed and I have a Hope sitting around too. Definitely new pedals, though. I'm having a hell of a time with the rear Magura mounts not going high enough, so I had to go from Echo TR mounts to the stock ones with the washers. Ghey.

I'm getting a front rim/disc wheel built right now. Otherwise, I'm loving it. I was riding a +60 GU before this, and the Meta geo feels pretty similar except lighter on the rear wheel. I don't want to grind the rear wheel, just because it looks gangsta, but I'll fuckin kill myself if it gets wet. Sorry for the crap phone pics too.

Edit: Shit, I totally forgot to give props to pav for the frame, and Tarty for a whole bunch of integral parts. You guys rock!

Basic 749 TryAll build.
Love it so far but ordering a new FW and booster next week. The TryAll FW was skipping out of the box

Loving dual maggies, progressing really fast on back wheel moves so im grinding my rear this week but may not grind the front, i like the bite it has now and offers a good contol but the bike is noisy as hell (but i dont mind

)

Jitters · 06-28-2010, 07:58 PM

Yeah, IMHO definitely grind the rear. Experiment with the front. I have Vee's with so-so pads up there. Broke down with a front grind only because they became unreliable when wet and/or sandy.
