Im thinking thats going to be quite hard when it does not have any maggie mounts.
And the forks and wheel don't have any disc mounts
-
Technically paid for it then hahahah.

She might not even like riding. If i was andy I'd tell her to f**k off if she asked for hopes. He probably paid for the bike anyway, lol.
Actually 90% of it was made from old parts lying around in my garage (yes I'm a hoarder, still got far too much clogging up the garage). The rest we got dirt cheap from forum members / friends.

@ CBG I've seen an old onza pro with a dent that size in it that has gone through three owners and is still going, but I know what your saying.
Oh yeah well there will be some exceptions
-
You would think the amount of money you spend on them frames that they would be abit stronger.
Judging by the crator of a dent in the downtube, I think most cheaper alternatives may struggle in those circumstances.

Glad you like it
Now get out there and ride it like a beast and get better than me
-
This is true. I'm guessing you chain it up at night to stop it blowing away?
-
It's heavy enough already Nath...
-
I didn't get on with it. Something about it didn't feel right for me, so I sold it.
It can now be found here
-
It was just the style of riding. I got on it trying to ride hoppy trials and it really wasn't setup for that.
I tried riding streety but really struggled to ride in that style.
-
Haven't you worked your way through every mod going by now? Time to move up to proper wheels soon, surely?
Nearly
Had almost every brand of bike I reckon...

Yea I gave up with my rear disc as it rubbed ridiculous amounts, no matter how far I shimmed the calliper.
I also found that the rotor hit against the frame, so there was one a few positions that you can place the wheel.
Also likely to crack around the seat tube, where the weird tangly bits of metal are, I think they are designed to be there to crack as a stress point, as apposed to the frame crack in a more serious location.
Been tinkering around with the rear profile, and managed to get the rotor far enough away from the frame, but had to shim the caliper a bit.
Should be ok, chain lines a bit shabby though. Need to sort out the cranks / bash / sprocket combo, add in some more spacers to make the chain line better.
And Dave, yes I know. I'm really not digging the jewish racing gold. WIll be sprayed soon enough.
-
Yep
-
Oh I will...
Already got a single wall rear rim to go on plus maybe a few other bits in time.
-
The dropouts seem to be the biggest issue. They way they are designed doesnt leave much space for things like chains and disc rotors.
I do however like the tensioning system.

The resident bike whore returns...
Picked this up at the weekend, first impressions are really good, aside from a few design flaws. Few tweaks still required, but all good so far.

Trialtech cranks with Trialtech Ti halfring bash and Atomz pedals

Creepy Crawler tyres

It was the Atomz Premier 20" full build. Had the Atomz bolt through forks with a standard non disc Atomz hub. I thought about cutting the axel down, but it then meant if I ever changed my forks, the wheel would be useless.
Had to wrench the forks apart so far and almost smack the wheel to get it to go in. Wasn't fun when you had front HS33 as well!
-
I thought the front wheel that came with my Premier 20" was wrong! I had to pull the forks apart really far to get the wheel in / out.
Ended up grinding the dropouts down so I could just about squeeze the wheel in. Glad it wasn't just me being stupid.
-
Heres the beaut ill be riding for the rest of the year.
Thats like me saying I'll have my bike until the end of the year...
Looking pretty swish though Nath. Ride soon!
-
Check your BB is actually screwed in tight and hasnt been unscrewing itself.
If your BB has unscrewed slightly, this could be why your left crank is now touching the frame.
-
Looks good Tris, go easy on it yea...

Gimp is a good bit of software. I use it at work as they won't pay for Photoshop.

Surely that doesn't make a difference to the question of whether the Levelboss was before the ES4 though?
ES2, ES3 and ES4 were almost exactly the same. The ES4 was just a lighter version I believe. Wasn't a lot of time difference between them when they were released.
