What are your rear rims ?
-
When you have two bikes, one for comp and one for training, the one for the comp is supposed to be lighter (all people I know which have two bikes are in this case). Like this you feel better on your bike the day of the comp.
-
Yes but I think it will be interesting for him to learn welding alloy because he makes a lot of frames.
-
Have you ever ridden one of your mate's Sky 2 ? If yes what's the differences between the two geo (in terms of feeling and movements) ?
And why doesn't Marino make alloy frame ?

I suppose this :

Hi,
All in title, does somebody know where to get this sort of paper ? It's a sort of paper which can make filmless logo on a frame (for example).
That's that :
The film is still on the frame :
After removing the film (filmless logo) :
or :
Video for illustration :

It's an average. I can grind my rims one time in 2 weeks or 2 times in two rides. It depends of the weather conditions, the time you ride and if you have comp. I often ride, and when I have comps I automatically grind my rims.
Ride in the rain in a place where there is some sand, dust, ..., and you will see that your grind will hold only the time of one ride.
But here is not the question, so does anybody have another solution ?
-
I don't buy another lighter rim because the rim I have is also very light. I just want to make it even lighter by enlarging holes.
I've done one rim with file but it takes too much time. I grind my rims one or two times a week on average, so I often change my rims. This is why I want to make the rim lighter without losing a lot of time.
Does the handheld drill get damaged with this use?
-
I want a machine for making bigger holes but also for other things (not necessarily in touch with bike).
So don't want milling machine, too expensive.
Router table, why not I saw some which were not too expensive. But where can i get a router bit for aluminium ? They are all for wood.
For the tungsten carbide rotary file, how did you use it ? With a drilling machine ?
I thought about the Dremel but I don't know if it's rather resistant for this kind of thing.

Hi,
I want to make bigger holes in my front rim and don't want to spend too much time to make it with file, drilling machine, ...
I search for milling machine but all I find is that type of machine :
It's expansive and not what I want because it's not portable.
I want this :
But somebody know what's the name of this ?
Thanks, and sorry for my bad english ...

Ok and where you get the rim ?
-
Why your rotors are not mounted in the correct sense ?
-
Is that a 24" or a 26" ? And what's the front rim ?
-
Where did you get the frame and the proto fork ?
-
If you had read you would have spotted it. 1,8 kilos
Sorry, I don't know why I thought it was the tube's thickness.
Can you post more detailed pics of your frame ? (if you have time)
Oh and before you made your own frame, did you searched for companies which make homemade aluminium frame ? If yes can you tell me the name ?
-
Weight of the frame ?

Rockman's answer to the sky 2
Exactly same geometry

What Mk2 mean ? That's a new version of Curve 2 for 2011 ? And what are the new geo and weight ?

Lots and lots and lots of nitromorse and sanding!
Sorry but what is "nitromorse" (I'm french). And did you use sandpaper or a special machine ?
Doesn't look like too shiny/mirror in real ?
-
how did you do that ?
I love it !
-
so does anyone know what is this downtube protector ?
And why the brake hose are not in the correct place on the calipers ? (place of the bleed scew, and the bleed screw is where the hose is normally) ?
and why the front disk is not correctly mounted ?
-
When I tried to make a downtube guard it didn't clip like yours, I must stick it. How do you do that ?
-
I think Rockman freewheel have also a problem because on Try-all cranks I couldn't screw my freewheel whereas others freewheels fit perfectly with Try-all cranks (try-all, echo, ...).

And the complete pic ?

don't know but Bruno (Ozony's boss) said that they are developing new 24" comp rims (so I think singlewalls with big holes in ...)
