  1. That sounds awesome! I'll keep an eye out for some pics if you do it, and if it turns out good enough a little guide too. Seriously, good luck with that!

    Thanks yer, if the initial printing idea works then im going to try and personalize it further :) Its going to be stamped with personal things to me almost like a tatoo, but removable and on my bike haha.

  2. Im thinking of making a downtube protector out of perspec's (<<<<spelling???) It's going to be see through and heated up to fit the shape of my limey 20". When it fits the shape of the downtube im going to let it cool then re-heat a certain patch and press a pre designed stamp of my initials into the perspecs. To finish it off i'm going to cover the patch where i printed my initials with masking tape and lightly spray over it just so that i get kind of ermmmm a sprinkling of green around the patch where my initials are :)

    Well thats how its going to go in my head. :lol:

  3. IMO.

    Sorry you'll have to fill me in here, whats it mean :$

    The manus is short and high so it will feel like a pogo stick, i'm guessing the limey feels like a rock compared.

    To me the Limey feels sh*t hot and i can remeber the exact weight, low 8kg's somewhere. Maybe to someone who was a bit of a bike slag and had more experience might say no your limey rides like shed but at the moment i'd say its reallyyyyy nice.

    Saying that i like the "pogostick idea".

    Oh andis it just me that personally thinks that it looks abit, well ........ bashed?

  4. I'd say first make up your mind which geo you want. Then take both specs and compare if it's worth for you to swap. Not really much to say, you have to think about pros and cons for yourself (in short - what works for me, won't necessary work for you).

    Good luck

    I get what you mean, however the limey is only my second bike so i dont really know if something works well or not for me, make sense?

  5. Hi all, Manus rider on here would like to swap his DD rockman manus for my dual maggie Onza Limey 20" I reallyyyyyyyyyyyy dont know which to have as my ride. :mellow: Could someone please point me in the right direction.

    http://www.pinkbike.com/photo/6180691/ <<<<<< The Manus.

    I'd just like to add the limey is what i would consider to be a very high spec, however i still need a spec list for the manus.

    Thanks in advance.

  6. thats well nice man bet it rides ace !, advice though, switch back to standard maggie hose and grind your rims, brakes performance will improve dramatically !

    Im keen for a grind yeah :) oh never realised hosing made a "performance" difference, thought it was stronger splitting wise. Is standard hosing wider to allow the liquid inside to move more freely?

  7. Hi all, this is my Onza Limey 20" i got in in the summer but sadly havent been able to ride as much as i would like to. However, the weathers picking up so hopefully will be out alot more. :rolleyes:

    Thanks for taking the time to look, feedback on it would be nice with like performance wise or visually. Only thing that is different from the photo is i have a rear 04 maggie now rather than the 05 version. ^_^

    Thanks.
