Luke Rainbird Posted June 19, 2009 Report Share Posted June 19, 2009 More to the point, those the 2.5" bars, yeah? Feels so weird having a set on after the Montys, going to be a bunnywhop machine though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IFallOffLots Posted June 20, 2009 Report Share Posted June 20, 2009 Looks great! Not sure I'd order something as light weight as that, I'd be worried my fat ass would crush it Can you order Marino's with whatever tubing you like? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maladie Posted June 20, 2009 Report Share Posted June 20, 2009 Looks excellent mate! I really do like the look of all these Marino frames.Got a vee on the front too I see, is it powerful? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leistonbmx Posted June 20, 2009 Report Share Posted June 20, 2009 Great looking bike, although those KHE tyres suck, i had them on my bmx and you can't run them at less than 90psi or the sidewalls just fall apart.They're also very prone to punctures.

zoster Posted June 20, 2009 Report Share Posted June 20, 2009 nice to see it build up. seems great (and a lot similar to mine ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Motivator Posted June 20, 2009 Report Share Posted June 20, 2009 That's the nicest 24 I've seen yet.Well done! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UrbanLegend Posted June 20, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2009 Cheers for the comments chaps As for the tubing - standard Marino stuff, didn't spec anything light weight (frame is over 5lbs easily).Tyre - running 50psi and it seems great so far, no problems to report and no punctures.Front V - spot on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkeyseemonkeydo Posted June 20, 2009 Report Share Posted June 20, 2009 Looks really nice, good job! How are the welds/quality up close? Only thing I'd change is the pedal colour, apart from that it's nigh on perfect! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only thing I'd change is the pedal colour, apart from that it's nigh on perfect!Welds are rather good considering the price. Compared to some of the pictures I've seen previously, he's obviously getting a lot better.I do intend to change the pedals to black or silver, however I'm waiting to knacker the bodies on these as I want to re-use the Ti axles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eskimo Posted June 20, 2009 Report Share Posted June 20, 2009 Real nice. But i do have some questions. An Inspired geo on a heavy steel frame, yet your weight saving? And cable length?I would like a go still. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross McArthur Posted June 20, 2009 Report Share Posted June 20, 2009 YES! It is pimp.Good job on the build. I was thinking of putting my cloud 9 on, might mill it down a bit first.How are you getting on with it so far? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
